Fixed it for you! Honestly, it’s the Angry500 now! Angry8 is just more fun.

You realize the bottom 300 are AS hires and not LVX, right?

Yes, there are only about 500 real LVX On the entire Alaska list. The bottom 300 are a great group. Sadly, they are taking the fall for the Angry8.

Try to contain your excitement about those whose lives are about to be upended. It’s not going to be all those evil former VX pilots who are downgraded, displaced, or furloughed.

I think if anyone needed a lesson on what AS management was really like... It's one thing to be clueless about the toll that their clueless decisions have on pilots and their families. They are actually giddy about putting pilots on the street.

So you’re saying 500 pilots, less than 20% of the pilot group, is holding the company hostage? Not buying it, I’d buy the case of poor management and lack of leadership though.

Where did you get that? Even if they really feel that way, they'd have to hide it well... not politically correct these days, could get them in hot water with the pols who might have to authorize more bailouts and could get senior managers fired by the board.

Might be enough to throw a wrench in the gears of a compliant MEC.

You know dude, I'm legacy VX. Part of your so called "Angry8". I was not angry at all. Was rather optomistic about things in the beginning.

I have to admit you are starting to really **** me off.

Passing you off, spreading FUD and dividing the pilot group are clearly his goals

We had the #Angry8 for four years ****ing away millions, taxing slow, breaking planes, throwing tantrums... All kinds of childish behavior, based on delusions. Would be nice to have some of that cash and goodwill right now. I wouldn’t say management is totally in the right, they need to own some of this...but the six year old tantrums have been embarrassing to watch, now we have this great caustic relationship with management... well done 183/63 and now we got our hand out for a favor.🙄

Yes, wasting away millions in stupid decisions has been frustrating to watch. The breaking planes is 100% managements fault - trust me I know the details as I have friends in high places too (see how easy that is to type)! I personally have prevented JL and CK from doing some simply asinine decisions. Again, super easy to type that nonsense.

The Angry 800 welcomed ALK management while the few ex QXrs were sounding the alarms about how arrogant and inept the Angle Lake team was.
