I know I would certainly take a pay hit to secure my own, and my fellow colleagues, futures.
Very noble Colonel Klink, and probably what will be required, and more.
Unfortunately if there is a VA Mk2 at all, there will be a significant number of pilots who will be “Surplus to requirements”, as a smiling HR type told me just prior to my retrenchment some years ago! It’s even probable that the entire current pilot group will have to compete for what positions there are. If that happens it will literally be every one for themselves.
It won’t be pretty.
