Out of curiosity;
Of the 4 leased 757s being returned and one scrapped 320, at, lets say 7 crews each - are we talking 35 pilots at risk/voluntary redundancies in the pipe?
If so, what's the date of joining of the bottom 35? I'm not in the know, but I presume there hasn't been much hiring in recent years; are 3+ year employees facing the chop?
My understanding is that flight deck culls have been thus far avoided due to redundancy package takers in recent years... Again, no insider knowledge, just grape-vine stuff.
Just seems like a poor state of affairs IF the bottom few dozen still happen to have a few years service.
