Aero and Sulkair,

You two have an awesome and POSITIVE attitude for your airline. Keep it up!! However, please do not set yourself up for an unexpected "gut-punch". Although I am not privy to the happenings at Frontier, I know that ideal, positive and happy employees are the first one to get discouraged and slapped in the face when managers like Franke, Segal or INDIGO start doing their not so friendly work.

Keep up your positive attitudes and do not gloat about making 180K/yr as a 320 Captain when the industry is already surpassed that rate, even for FOs. When you gloat, your managers know you are content thus no need to increase and better your work rules and $$. Be positive and enjoy, but dont settle for stale wags. You are worth more than what you are getting. Your number one opponent, besides your managers, are the senior Frontier Captains that are content with $180k/yr, Denver and their lifestyles. THey do not want change or disruption. You have to remember, most of those top senior guys got hired when Frontier was paying them $50k/yr.

Aero, I respect your views. 180k a year is a TON of $$ compared to whatever a 1900 captain makes. But I am here to tell you that you, especially being so positive and diplomatic, are worth at least 20% more.

Good luck guys,

TEN
