Indeed. I think next year will be make or break for the type. This year is more or less written off.

If the US manage to get their outbreak under control and Asia reopens to travel, then the future will be a bit more assured for the type...If not, then things are a lot more up in the air.

I guess its a sensible career-protecting move from those who wish to transfer. At least the A350 is actually flying, and is almost certain to continue to do so.
