tbylx,
there is a plan. And it's to get this airline running again (remember 'get well gulfair'?). Of course we may have different ideas on this. It's either expansion with new aircrafts and routes OR contraction with cost cutting and the current older planes. Unfortunately for pilots, they've chosen the latter (least risk). Either way may make or break the company and/or the country, the difference being a matter of how fast.
The rest now will be up to loads and yields. From a pilot's point of view, one can hang around and see (I'll be one of them) or, as you so colourfully put it, watch the blaze from a safe distance. Thankfully, there is a chronic pilot shortage worldwide so we can actually entertain both options without worrying too much.
Safe flying.
