The cycle is changing this decade though, its not going to look like the last 10 years, if you can't think this way, your just going to keep saying oh wow I didnt see that coming. The tides have changed for a new cycle.
Yeah, what do I know. My silly opinions are based on 25 years in the industry, all with AMR. I never knew an Eagle new-hire with 1.5 years at Eagle under his belt could explain so much to me about the airline industry...... past, present and future. I suppose if this was a year or so ago and you wandered into the cockpit fresh off IOE, you'd be explaining to me just like this, all the things I don't know about the industry and Eagle, new-hire to senior captain................jeez. BTW, the "new cycle" is what the high-fivers are hoping for and as I stated previously, it will only imprison most of them for their careers in that "new-cycle". Careful what you wish for.
At any rate, silly me.
