I quit, but not like you might quit a normal airline (or company, for that matter). You see, if you gave them notice, they would just stop paying you.

So, I got a job in Iraq and worked there, and was successful in getting a final pay check from Arik. I didn't like the job in Iraq (hopefully, that doesn't need a lot of commentary, but it did pay a lot).

The A330 was repo'd, and the two A340's are operated by a contract airline, HiFly of Portugal. No chance to go there. We did fly everything except New York with the Boeing / Bombardier fleet, so not just domestic. The furthest I flew was Dakar, Senegal, and we sent the CRJ to Germany for maintenance. B737 did London and Jo-burg, in addition to domestic / west africa regional.

They had a shortage of FO's on the Boeing 737, so I volunteered to go to that airplane, even offering to pay for the type rating. Denied (no real seniority system).

They kept hiring new captains off the street above me, leaving no place to grow to, at an airline that will likely fail soon:
