So numbers can be interpreted one way or another, AND? So they can transfer planes as you say, is that a reason to be intimidated? Or there can be a lockout, no kidding, I bet the MEC or the pilot group never thought of that one, glad you educated us and that is a reason to be scared? Do you really think we're sh**ting in our pants? Sorry to disappoint you Whale, but no, we are not intimidated.

Lots of new hires yes, like there always have been at PO, most of them came for a type and go on to greener pastures, just look at the turnover. Request for background checks come in constantly and we've lost a bunch to UPS, SWA, JetBlue, AWA, CO etc.... You think they're scared?

Hiring is year round at PO too, can't even keep up, many have had to go back to the sim to restart their clock...

One only fears the unknown, and there is no "unknown" in JC's tacticts.

You know as well as I do that a p**sed off pilot group can be VERY costly, so JC has 2 options, get rid of the pilot group or give them something... Still no reason to be scared
