Yeah, but I think it was just a scare tactic. Opinions from guys that were around then?

If they could have gotten away with it they would have. Nobody but the furloughees was scared. They ended up getting a few new managers out of it. The rest were too scared of having to work like Geoffery.

I'm sure but isn't it true we are always short? I heard the airline has been short pilots since it started. I guess that's a plus side of always being short....they won't really be able to get away with it. Of course, we have to put this airline within an airline under wraps so they can't ever get away with it.
