For some reason, those two things don't satisfy me, and most likely won't satisfy the pilots who now have no time off for the next 4 months.
I'm outta here, RW here I come, 170 class next month.
-They had about 90 pilots on furlough after 9-11 so that part is b-s.
-Industry leading upgrade program??? Does that mean the 3 days of ground school and 5 sim sessions is the best this circus of an industry has to offer??? No CRM or captain specific stuff has ever been offered...
-There are SO MANY hours of cx vacation that it will take YEARS to catch up. Those cx vacations amount to so much snake-oil. Good luck with that.
