Some very good analysis here. The Talking Horse even talked about the furlough recalls amongst the Yanks. But what has not been talked about is even a very few R.A. guys have left. Reason? Rostering and lifestyle. They never thought it could have been worse than R.A., but.........Not many just a few, but it could sow the seeds of others thinking twice about 92 hours, no commuting, 45° heat, and second class citizen status. The big shiny jet syndrome wears off when you actually fly it for only five minutes out of 3-15 hours. HR isn't worried, the innocents continue to apply. Until they experience the 92 hours of 1/2 being all night flying, Available Days arbitrarily inserted to prevent too much time off in a row, etc. etc., they can only be called the "innocents". "It can't be that bad."
