Still got a paycheck so I'm one of the lucky ones!

I'm in the aerospace world, too. We had a 12% reduction about six weeks ago (5000 employee company). The rest of us are having to work longer hours to keep up with new projects. It really sucks. We don't rely too much on general aviation which has really been stung, but some good, smart people were let go. Some of them earning 100K+/year plus excellent benefits. I know that's a huge void for them to try to fill.
