I wish we had a clue. With the merger going forward, the end result would be too many pilots, if you believe there is an increase in efficacy as a result. There are still some retirements ahead and a lot of people just leaving. I hear a large group (nine or so, in November) is heading to Korean, from both Polar and Atlas.

Also remember that when the merger is complete, there are around a hundred Polar pilots (Polaroid's, correct me if I'm wrong) furloughed, and all the FE's are fired (for the moment).

Also the threat of Atlas shrinking before the 747-8's arrive is out there.

Good news, marketing just deleted all vacations in the forth quarter of 2007 from our vacation bid. Hope they know something is in the works.

Good luck.
