Then you expect them out on the picket line with you? No damn wonder they grab the pizzas and beer and run. You got what? Near 400 pilots on first year pay? And they don’t matter to you?
They grab pizzas and run because legacy carriers are hiring nonstop at higher pay for every year of longevity and faster upgrades. Pay guys $150/hr first year and they are still leaving if you don’t raise years 2-12.
I can only explain it to you so much, as others have as well. You’re stuck, we get it.
I’m done with you. It’s lunacy to expect you to grasp the obvious. Maybe you can apply for a legacy job?!
