We were told that in the next few weeks the fall schedule would be finished. At that point we'll hear more from our company. The last letter we received said there were still difficult times ahead. I don't see a liquidation at this time...but the "f" word, good chance.

Many of us are trying to get long term LOAs to mitigate the inevitable involuntary furloughs for the guys that aren't in a position to deal without this job as the the industry hunkers down in the fall. I haven't heard if or how many airplanes will be idled after August, but just looking at the rest of the industry I would guess at least 10%. Maybe more maybe less
