Heard this from my FedEx brethren in the reserves.
Pilots like to spread rumors of bad things to come, even if they are far fetched. Like these below. I guess I'm no better than the rest.
1) SWA will cut wages deep or go into BK (furlough) when the hedges run out
2) FedEx/UPS will go contract or foreign pilots in a strike. The only thing holding management back is the pesky contract in place.
3) JetBlue will start losing money and sell airplanes when they have to start paying for maintenance (wait, this one is true)
4) United will kick butt when it comes out of BK after flushing pensions and debt.
5) Frontier will lose its shirt when SWA starts at Denver (half true, only its UAL who is losing)
6) USAir will go away in 6 months (Heard at least 4 times over two years)
Gimme more rumors to ponder....
