[QUOTE=AYLflyer;3651687]I'm one of those, and I'm not happy about it. I'm actually updating my apps for the first time in a long time. If I'm going to go backwards after a number of years here, I might as well just start over flying for Delta or United at this point. It's crazy to me that we're seeing generational hiring/movement yet our pilots are stagnating and going backwards.

This👆🏽……you seem to get it. Sure East Coast guys at 2-4 years have less justification for complaining than someone whose spent a lifetime at LAX, but my point was at legacies with the same seniority you would be in a very different position. It’s like over there it’s HOT HOT HOT and people are grilling away, and we are saying “there is a microwave being brought to my room.”While over there over at legacies at least one retirement per day helps, but it isn’t exclusively that. We all knew or should have known that there weren’t many retirements but I was and maybe you too thought there would be more growth and the now the legacies are beating us at our own game. This Management group has made a lot of compounding bad decisions that will unfortunately effect our career progression.


[QUOTE=AYLflyer] This was my argument with a few guys who said "It's not the company's fault, we knew the 190 was going away".


To be fair to you… the company has changed their official position at least once about the 190’s only to reverse course to their original position and accelerate their drawdown……..we all know the prior to NK acquisition the real clandestine strategy was to have the 220 replace the 320…….and the replacement for the 190 was to have flights flown by American Eagle brands within the NEA.
There have been many that have speculated that and it’s not such a crazy idea that next summer the company may not be ready to have the BOS 190 displacement.
