Today the pilot representative group SAPA informed pilots that if the various programs of voluntary leave, and part time pilots would not work to accomodate and aleveate some of the overstaffing, in the fall there might be an undetermined number of furloughs.

:bomb: The End:bomb:
 
If Skywest is talking about furlough, that's like the pope saying the end is near. It's now officially bad for the regionals.

Don't worry phagjhets is not far behind, you will be lucky to be cleaning toilets at the Steak and Shake, which you are fairly qualified for.

You Go-Jet turd.
 
Well I figure I will show up for work until they tell me not to. I will say that trying to predict the airline industry in 6 months is like trying to predict the weather 6 months in advance. A whole lot can happen. It isn't looking good though...
 
Ah the joy of being 40-50 from the bottom, makes me feel all warm inside.
I better start looking for alternatives, yay...

If you are just starting to look for alternatives now, you are way behind the curve. I started 20 years ago, and have always had options, they vary, and most times 3-4 options. Getting into this business without looking at the history is well.......you get it now?

Unfortunately an airline pilot is furloughed an average of 2 times during their career. It's just the way the unions have designed it.

Screw ALPA national for the demise of this industry.
