Is the worst over at Flexjet?

Just sitting here in the hotel sipping a glass of wine and eating some cashews, naked and wondering if the worst is behind us here at flex. Any thoughts?

Being I'm one of the 85, and currently sipping powered lemonade, eating MRE's, and fully clothed in 120 degree heat...I sure as ____ hope so!

Like a dead snitch it's hard to tell.

I thought the worst was over for the industry, then Citation Shares layed off more people and downgraded.

Flexjet wise, they have no clue what is going to happen, all they do is react. Wish I was at NJ.

In looking at the numbers, it looks like Citation Shares held out on the deeper cuts than we did. Their numbers are now about the same as ours. Who knows whether the end is near or not. I sure hope so for everyone's sake. I did see in AIN for whatever that is worth, that the analysts are saying the used market has bottomed out. I think that is usually a good sign. Some of the more experienced guys could better comment on that from previous recessions.

Believe me, my post is in jest. I was laughing at the thought of it...

I am sure that is just what the Flex 85 love to hear. Oh, by the way,

I wish you were at NJ too!

The grass is always greener you TOOL.

Reacting, in and of itself, isn't bad. It's the way some managers reacted that makes the difference. Recognizing that some are more pilot-friendly and willing to try alternatives first is just basic honesty and preferring a perceived better deal is simply human nature. For all we know, Uncle just posted what some of the Flex 85 are thinking.

I have been hoping that the furlough mitigation effort at NJ would spread to the other fracs, or at least help them in some way. I knew that would require open-minded managers but it never occurred to me that other frac pilots wouldn't want their own version of the voluntary measures, especially if it meant saving jobs.

Good luck to the Flex 85 and their families. I know the recall clock is ticking for you. Best Wishes, NJW
