"the state of the economy, the financial state of the Company, or the relative profitability or unprofitability of the Company’s then-current operations. "
Well, duh. I hate to say it, but isn't that ALWAYS why pilots get furloughed? Business is down and they shrink the business which leads to layoffs. With the above phrase in the contract the whole thing seems pointless to me.
Unless there's a history of Delta laying pilots off just for giggles, which I don't think there is, how does anyone think the language above protected employees from "regular" furloughs, let alone FM?
