We are on a collision course with reality in this industry. There will be winners and losers. They growth powerpoint you probably got in indoc will only materialize if it comes from existing legacy capacity. I hope that doesn't happen. I appreciate your cockeyed optimism (if thats what it is) thinking we can all grow into infinnity and beyond with no consequence, but I disagree with the premise on the grounds of the reality of the marketplace.
Not sure of your background either, and it really doesn't matter, other than to urge you to shy away from ad hominem arguements to bolster your position. I assure you there are plenty of military and civilian pilots who agree and disagree with both of us.
We didn't get a growth powerpoint.
As I said I really think you give us too much credit.
Nobody at jetBlue thinks we are going to be able to roll over any legacy, maybe you are thinking of another LCC but that is not us.
We all know what position we are in and how very vulnerable our company is. We do need to grow and where that is I am not sure but you guys have fought us and won...ie...jfk pit and you have fought us and lost. Like I said you seem to want to see guys out of a job and I just don't understand that. We will see who wins and I hope we come to a point in the airline world where we all can have jobs and have a stable industry.....but that's just me being a cockeyed optimist.
