If we need to hire it is imperative for SD to say so and make it happen. That is why he is in the position he is in. If our BOD is saying no hiring that shows me how completly utterly useless, overpaid, out of touch, and moronic they are. We are very close to squandering the years of customer loyalty and good will we all have worked very hard to build. If we are running out of pilots the 3rd weekend of April on many fleets something is wrong.
I hope this summer goes ok because if it does not we may have ruined our brand long time after working so hard to get it right.
Take care everyone
Absolutely, 100% agree. It appears to me they are so focused on a 2 billion profit and bump in stock price that we are crewing at razor thin staffing for summer. Now take pilots from the 9 & md88 for 717 training I see some ugly delay/ cancellation issues arising this summer. I HOPE I AM WRONG! Would hate too see all our hard work building brand loyalty lost because of a lack of 300-500 pilots not hired 12 months early! Now back to the masters.
