You are probably better off. After a long time AE empl, you do not have any rights.
And looking at whats developing there now, don't waste your time, start looking at another outfit, between Comair and AE migration you "could" end up better off.

So, don't look at this letter as something negative.

I personally know of 5 good friends that for one or another reason didn't get on with AE in 2000-2001, two other friends and myself did. It Was disastrous.

The other 5 are well ahead of us with QoL, salary and seat time.

Best of luck to you.
