Current Airline Pilot Furlough Stats

A Lot of Our Fellow Flyers Still Out Of Work

Well... the folks at AIR, Inc., also dropped us a summary of the latest Pilot Furlough stats and while the numbers aren't getting much worse, they don't seem to be getting a whole heck of a lot better.

With an expected hiring/re-hiring thaw coming in the coming year (and continued improvement in travel bookings), we're expecting significant improvement for 2004.

We'll keep you up to date as the situation progresses. Cross your fingers for improvement, folks...
