I appreciate the further clarification. No messenger shooting here. Do I dare say it... Maybe there really is a pilot shortage LOL.
No, I won't got there - yet
But this is very, very interesting, and in such a short time. 1 year ago when I came through they said they had over 3000 apps on file.
Well I can tell you one thing. Frontier is making A LOT of money. Hopefully they won't want to risk losing any of their momentum by facing a staffing/operational crisis. What I'm saying is hopefully this will translate into an early contract opener for an equitable contract.
Appreciate the reports - keep the info flowing.
