Let me get this straight, you and Jammers are predicting "short-term" furloughs of approximately 50 pilots 18-24 months out? Without giving management more credit than they deserve, you'd need to figure this could be avoided with as much lead time as they have gotten. Let's worry about the important issues now...

No one is going to get furloughed, we are so short on the pinnacle side abd there are probably more q400's coming eventually. As long as mr Bloch gives us a list soon if we had too many on one side people would just be shifted to something else

Good lord- would you clowns relax about the furloughs?

If everyone's moving down, who's moving up?

I "heard" we will all start over at Day 1 with the same seniority. Pilots will then be matched up in the Octogon at the Pyramid in MEM for a MMA tournament to determine seniority. May the strongest advance, survive, and enjoy the best lines that Pinnacolaba has to offer! Good luck fellas (and ladies)!

Sounds like something they can use to get in touch with us anytime they want. I'd rather just play Angry Birds on my own equipment.
