I don't disagree that ENY pilots are finally seeing some positives, but to paint it as AAG doing us a favor is laughable. The Phoenix Mafia does nothing that in the end decreases their bottom line. Nothing.

Loudest? Hardly. Negative Nancy? How about realist. Not much negativity? I'll give you it's nothing like they put us through the last two years, but closing half our bases, giving our airplanes away, and unilaterally changing RSV rules aren't exactly olive branches.
You and a couple others are spin doctors, intentionally ignoring anything that might make anyone think ENY is anything less than rainbows and unicorns. We're certainly not the worst, but this isn't heaven on earth. Evidently pilots nationwide agree with me. Few that are here want to be, and those that aren't here don't either.
