Management bringing weak sauce, changing the deadline. They really mean it this time. The numbers are rolling in, trending YOY net negative. They painted themselves into a corner. It’s going to be a show. Plan B, base closures, downgrades, commuting and yikes multi-day trips. Half the pilot group are cats to water, when you say over night. Oh well... I hope this doesn’t impede management’s ability to recruit the lowest paid Ultra Low Cost Pilots. Inflation is going to make that first-year food stamps. Unless you get Flint.

So true, Bushleague 101. Great things coming. Stick around for us to buy AA and/or the sweet parts. What a joke. AA will call the white house and get whatever they need to stay whole. Hotel man will buy another Hotel. If there were such an opportunity (doubtful) others will swoop in and snatch it away. G4 doesn’t have the juice for such a bold maneuver.

Imo.

No different than every regional's plan a decade or two ago of waiting for Mesa to tank and grabbing their flying. Tracy doesn't have an original thought in her blonde head. She's literally running the regional playbook from the early 2000s, It's laughably pathetic. I've never seen an airline manager less qualified for their position or more in over their head.

Ugh by the way, Mesa is still very much a going concern. Comair not so much...

Latest email from the company regarding contract negotiations shows how out of touch they are. Holy crap our union has their work cut out for them. 2-3 years now makes more sense.

Does anyone else smell burning trash?

The company is like a child in the cereal section of the grocery store.

For anybody that thought we would be wrapping up a contract this summer, hopefully that email clarified things. 2-3 years looks extremely optimistic at this point.

Reliable source says MG told a recurrent class last week they may slow down the 737 deliveries….FWIW

Yep, trying to pay us in line with 2 startup airlines and mentioning how we should be paid less vs B6/ALK/DAL/UAL/AA because our model is different even though our profit margins are significantly higher. Honestly 2-3 years would shock me. Those who are leaving now will be lineholding CA's at legacy long before we have a TA. I will bookmark this post here, I'm calling 4-7 years from today. I hope I'm proven wrong but we'll see.

Unfortunately I believe 4-7 is a realistic estimate, unless some kind of corporate transaction intervenes.

Hopefully to zero
