This is a business we work for, and as such, all is fair which affects the bottom line. As long as I have been in this business as an employee, it has always amused me to no end when pilots think they are part of, or in the LOOP. We are not. We are a contract. We have faces and names, but we are in no way in the strategic operation of this business. My wife was a Sr. Financial Analyst at a large purple company and presented "Outlook Information" to the CFO and CEO each week. When investors sued the purple company for missing projections, guess who ended up deposed in legal proceedings?


You appear to be contradicting yourself - on one hand you say we are not in the loop and have no insider information and on the other hand you say we are discussing valuable company information.

I agree when you say we are not in the loop. Unless any of us have signed a NDA - I don't think we are taking too big of a risk by posting. Legally what is stopping me from repeating any rumor I hear, or posting and giving my worthless opinion on any internet article that I choose to post?
