Yes I do, the people I work with have been great, I have nothing against the crews I work with. I work at Eagle because I am here to put in my time and then hopefully move on to the legacy's.
But from a business stand point in today's market (IMHO), I don't think Eagle is very valuable aside from it's fleet of CR7's. An aging fleet of ERJ's, ATR's and a fairly senior seniority list all add to high investment costs. Most airlines are moving away from the 50 seat market, so what does Eagle truly have to offer in today's market if given the chance to bid contracts? I'm no expert, and I may be missing the big picture, but with current scope restrictions, lack of more 70+ seat aircraft orders/deliveries, I find it hard to believe Eagle will be successful to be picked up with the intent to grow.
