By the way in whom are you referring to as "we"?

I do believe a few of the usual suspects have shown their cards here...but I would hasten to add there will always be someone willing to fill what they perceive to be a market void."In Flight services" is one of those voids that has a big hole to fill with the present providers. One in which VA is providing and will do so for the forseeable future.
Spin, you have difficulty understanding what you read. I never "wished bad luck on VA". I am simply stating the facts and expressing my opinion on them regarding VA's 35 mil loss in a quarter. Perhaps I will try your ostrich approach next time, and stick my head in the sand when mis-fortunate news comes out concerning the industry.

You claim that I "just wish they would go away so the market will pay more because of the supply and demand for pilots will tip in favor of pilots? Thereby increasing your worth to your employer?"

This statement makes no sense. My previous posts says that I believe " ...the more pilots looking for job, the less valuable we are". Therefore, how would VA closing its doors increase my worth to my employer? It would decrease my worth, because more pilots would be on the street.

So the answer to your question "Have I got the gist of what "WE" are saying?" is No. You actually had it all backwards!


"By the way in whom are you referring to as "we"?


In whom? Well, I was referring to those of us that you keep crying about because you think "we" are wishing bad luck on VA. When someone forecasts a grim future for an airline, they are often just stating the facts, not wishing them bad luck. I encourage you to look back over the past few pages of this thread to find any indication that I "wish VA bad luck".
