Not everyone. Age 46, flying 28 years, 91, 91K, 135, 121, turbine PIC, 10K TT, zero failures/enforcement actions/violations, no DUI/criminal record, published safety author, requested and paid speaker at business aviation events, former FlightSafety instructor/evaluator, etc. I don't look good in double-breasted suits and hate wearing hats.

Next month will be two years here. If I were to leave I'd be running to something not running from something. Cash? Pehaps I guess if that's your God. This is not an endorsement of our current rates. Personally I'm wait and see. And as a former INDY air guy I abhor United. Wouldn't go there for $500K a year. AA? Commute on them. Enough said. SWA? The canned water freaks me out. Obviously I'm being facetious but not everyone that's employable elsewhere is leaving.
