OO will be a net positive of >1700 pilots by the end of 2022.
It is unfortunate, but you’re “category” is already slated to disappear.
We’re reading what you’re saying, so try reading what everyone else is saying…..
AW a single customer contract (UA only) for a customer that has explicitly said that your aircraft is going to disappear soon.

Maybe in 2022 you'll be net positive pilots, but heck in 2022 everyone will be net positive. Maybe you can get more flying here and there but no more or less than anyone else can who is competing for it. I'm not the least bit afraid of competing against Skywest for UA 550s, 900s or any other airplane our management adds. We compete against you now and do well, we'll compete against you later and do well too.

Anyone in the regional industry should know that everything changes and nothing is guaranteed. Compass had fancy 175s and multiple contracts. Did that save them? Expressjet had 175s shortly before COVID, did that save them?
Maybe it'll be bad, maybe it won't. Doomsday is just as founded in guesses as anything else.

Do anyone of you work for upper management? That’s cool you like to pretend to, but rather than trashing each other and who we work for, how about we support each other as pilots. We have very little control with what happens with our carrier. So please, ****.

sound like management when they came into our new hire class and with a straight face said they are competitive because they have their own acars and put 100 pound plates in the cargo hold. And that every major was coming to them daily with offers.
they legit told us this.
Hope y’all got those 2016 sunrise or sunset bag tags
