Really sorry to hear that. Condolences and best wishes to all, as I’ll be close to the axe dropping if we go to 3900 furloughs.

That has been the plan for awhile. House back Sept 1. Then the Senate two weeks later.

Something I don’t understand...the payroll savings based on furloughing 2850 pilots on the bottom of the list constitutes a savings of $25-30 million per month (avg $140/hr x 70 mpg). If we are burning 25-30 million every day, what does furloughing anyone save?

At $18B cash on hand and a burn of $25M each day, the money runs out in 720 days. That is nearly 2 years. Furloughing 2850 pilots for two years stretches the $18B a little less than a month, right? Or, am I way off on my math?

Send that question to your reps.....see what they have to say about it.

They say it’s all unity until it effects them. I already heard the spill. Thee senior people have made it clear that they could care less about furlough mitigation.

PDRs are good, but direct to your council email address is better.
