What he is... saying are you willing to work under a post 9/11 contract that was negotiated under the guidance of a corrupt attorney with the largest aircraft on property being a 50 seat regional jet at a company which was mostly transitional and had an average upgrade time for fo's of about 16 months?

Are you willing to work for a company that is the only one in this economic downturn that is doing anything to improve its position? Are you willing to work for a company that is willing to think outside the box and make business decisions that are for the greater good of many while an unfortunate devastation to few?

The mins are most likely going to be dictated by politicians who know nothing about flying airplanes. The mins will also be dictated by the number of "qualified 121 applicants". The portion of people you see posting here is so small. Most in the industry don't read this banter and even more barely know it exists. People will apply banking on the stability of the company and the potential of a good contract in the future.
