Relax folks. Last down turn, there were some guys hired direct from furloughed regional guys. I'm sure that'll be the case this time around too. I for one would be happy to share the cockpit with you as would most others. There's plenty of great things you would bring here.
What most people don't want is the airline guy complaining "This isn't how we did it at xxx airlines".
Be prepared to load freight (sometimes or all the time), be actively able to troubleshoot your airplane + talk to maintenance about it and able to accept that our primary customer won't treat you very well most of the time.
This is the real-deal Freight dogging your grandpa told you about when you were in diapers. Its not too similar to where you are now so just be sure if its something you think you'd be interested in before committing to it.
