NWA isnt overstaffed. I added up the number of required pilots needed at Year End with the reductions and its just under 5000. We have 5200ish pilots now. So if you take out the mgmt positions, voluntary furloughs, LTD, military leaves you can see we arent going to be overstaffed. The only thing that the company is wondering is how many of the older guys are going to Punch out as soon as they see what they can milk out of this. Also if NWA planes are brought up to anything that resembles the DAL staffing model we will be SHORT pilots quick. Hypothetically if we ever got overstaffed by a little NWA doesnt want the cost associated with flowbacks when they know things are going to be changing quickly. Relax with the mythical "NWA overstaffing"
