Oh brother... crxpilot if you cannot see that ALG was having a disproportionate number of inflight emergencies over the last few years, fortunately all professionally handled by their skilled pilots, then there is really no way to improve your company. Thankfully your just a cool-aid drinking line pilot that probably has no control in wether ALG prioritizes MX or not so hopefully after their early FAA inspection at least mgmt has gotten the message.

If a company can dispatch an aircraft to a NOTAM'd closed airport and when it reaches said airport doesn't have but emergency gas left, so no divert, well that right there shows a few systemic problems in a company, and it apparently starts right at the dispatchers.

Hopefully ALG has turned the corner and decided that it's going to be an airline with airline type expenses instead of squeezing every last penny out of the operation and depending on pilots using their skills and due diligence to repeatedly bail them out.
