I think you meant to say there was a direct link between the 115 380s and your job. You Eric sure ain't that clever. However your cleverness scores greater points than your empathy.

I am not sure many airlines had contingency plans for a virus shutting down the world. Looking at Expat pilots in China, Korea, Hong Kong, Singapore, UAE and Qatar the landscape has changed dramatically over the last 7 or 8 months. Some airlines may have done better than others, but the results are still very sad. Even legacy Airlines have pilots living with uncertainty. But it probably a little easier when doing that in your home country.

​​​​Time for the pilot group to start looking after each other. It's never been more important than as it is now.
