That's actually not as bad as I thought it'd be. Heck, at NJA, 495 pilots were let go in a single day. Maybe the fact that you were already grossly understaffed is helping you. I can see they are pretty much counting on voluntary attrition to take care of some of their dirty work for them.
It just sucks that not many places are hiring right now.

Has NetJets called any back? Or still 495 out?
 
I think the 450 number is deceptive.
Management knows that the more furloughs there are, the worse the term sheets get, the longer it takes the process to complete - the more people leave at a faster rate.

When we went in Bankruptcy (XJ) they furloughed the projected numbers. So many people left unexpectedly that we were actually understaffed. We are at the beginning of this very unpleasant process and if any airline starts hiring people will leap off this burning ship so fast we could wind up being understaffed with no prospect for getting more pilots.
 
Interesting how in the same memo they put out Vacancy 12-02 adding jet captains. I wonder why they couldn't do that as part of a multiclass in 12-01
