Considers United as a Part Time Job?! But also worried 'That I will lose my teaching job'.
Resigned from United on 4 May 20.

And now is 'assisting' our fellow pilots with MBA data that shows will need 9500 pilots in Jan 22.
Come on.
Just figuring out how many pilots we will need is nearly impossible from our standpoint since we don't have all the data and the game plan that management does.
How much international flying requiring IRO's (Bunkies)?
How much is mainline flying.. how much is Express?
What will the economy look like for the US? What about the World?
How many other airlines go under thereby allowing United the chance to grab some of those passengers?
Is it 9500 ACTIVE Pilots? Because we know there is a difference between Total and Active.

Some of his highlights-





















Yes, we all have 'a right' to post on an anonymous forum and pitch our doom and gloom if we want to. But then others have a right to point out inconsistencies and/or falsehoods.
The guy quit. I get it. A few others already called him out on that choice and the strangeness of it.. but it's his life.
But to now post that his data shows 9500 pilots needed in 18 months to 'help' the bottom 1000-2000 pilots make a decision?
BTW, if the economy is going to be that bad in 18 months.. um, what should these 1-2K Professional Pilots do to find work? Nursing School? Teaching School? come on man.

Yeah, maybe I have a problem with guys who tout Doom & Gloom and have only been on the Forum for a week
Always

I was on a forum like this in the summer of 2008 and got into a bit of trouble for a couple things I posted so I understand your skepticism. Don't mean any trouble but no one gave me any insight in 2001 or 2007. I'll leave you guys alone. Believe it or not I was just trying to give a way to plan absent intuition. Again, my apologies.
