Recruitment/growth
Are more pilots leaving the company after the CAE displacements?
For a new-hire MKE and CAE are really the only options except for lengthy reserve in Ord and holding IAD almost impossible now since the base shrink.
Anyone have any clue what’s going on? It just seems like a terrible turn for recruitment and growth.

That’s what we all think on the front lines.
But, the investors are VERY good at making money, and they don’t make any decisions unless it’s making their percentage of profit. They must have some long-term plan for CAE/MKE, part of the “big picture” that we can’t see.
