Well I'm basing my numbers just off AA pilots and the seniority calculator. I realize anything can happen but right now it is something to be excited about and look forward too.

How do you think we are positioned wrong compared to UA and Delta. Our first two years out of bankruptcy and post merger we were out performing UA on many things and especially quarterly earnings. I feel the company is positioned pretty well and only going to do better now that we are post FOS. Once we get the FA's all on one system that should help a lot too. We also had one of the best transitions when we combined our reservation systems between LUS and LAA.

Is everything perfect, never is but I think we are still moving forward and only going to improve.

As a side note about our pilot group eating our own, I only read about it here and C&R's. I saw very little of it in training and on the line. Most everyone has been happy and polite. For my short time at United I experienced the same thing but also still heard the jokes and complaints between their merger. Some guys still carried around a list of the scabs and made jokes towards CAL hires. But it was only a few.
A few people complaing on social media can really make a group of say 15,000 seem bad or that the sky is falling. Just look at our presidential election and what actually happened. I think most AA pilot's agree we will need to improve our contract in 2020 but wouldn't leave for another company if less than two years since being hired.
