I choose to be realistic and plan for the worst. AA invested years ago with very little since. We're a "growing" airline with a shrinking pilot group. That's not exactly a plan for success. Even if they turned things around today, we are 4-6 months at the earliest from seeing the effects on the line.
More experience? I would gladly compare aircraft I've flown in the foreign countries and conditions I've flown against your record.
I have to get the helo stink off me. But I guess with your myopic view of the world, every military pilot was a fighter pilot.
Yep, like I said. I was in airline management when you were in Junior high. Let's see, never seen a "heavy" helo and never seen a helo file for the tracks so I guess I would put my experience up to yours. I appreciate your service to our country as I've said before. I also served and have been shot at but not in an aircraft.
4-6 months? Probably. No matter what PSA does, you won't be happy. That is for sure.
