You many not feel grumpy but that's how you come across. At least when it comes to responding to my take on things.

I didn't mention the regulated age or say it sucked at FDX. Just pointing out some facts. It's you who doesn't remember the difference in lines in the pax world. Maybe you didn't stay there long enough to see how their more senior flying wasn't a leap ahead of the worst flying.

The most recent posts before mine in this thread are about letting pilots know what's in store for them. That's what I was responding to. I'd rather have folks come aboard who like this for a living. We've had a few leave because they didn't know what they were getting into. Good news is the NPRM may fix much of what needs fixing.

Folks are just going to have to accept less growth and advancement than we had, on average, during the tremendously good '94 to '07 period. Juniority will be a way of life for many.
