I wonder what happens to all those flight crews? Do they upgrade to AA large aircraft? I also wonder what this pandemic has done for new pilot training at schools, FBOs etc.. is there a Glut of pilots on furlough?

They are most likely going to be looking for a new vocation. If they are lucky, a few of them might get a job in the booming private aviation sector.

i remember both flying on those and working with them..we always had issues with getting a jetbridge up to the door (did not use external stairs)as the jetbridges had to be really ajdusted both up/down and side to side to fit and we had to use a little tiny "ramplet bridge" as well..
