Cool story, bro. I still don't know how any of this is relevant to what AAGs financials are like.

I'll be happy to, but this is not the venue. If you are interested, please start a thread about it elsewhere?

Show me where 19/25 of my most recent replies are in other airlines forums. I'll wait.

Your sample size is too small to be statistically relevant. 18 of those posts were replies to other people btw.

I wasn't aware of a limitation in APC to comment on "other airlines" forums. Can you point out to one since I must have missed it. Maybe you should go to BTL or something if you are offended by it.

Dera, you live in fantasy land. Tell me a pilot who went from AA/UAL/DAL to Atlas? On the other hand, I know a bunch who jumped ship.

Stop dreaming ma dude.

Jeff Carlson wouldn’t even let his kids go to Atlas because “they work too hard for the money”, he sent them to Delta.

I know a bunch too. I also know a bunch who are not planning to leave. For me, Atlas works better. Horses for courses.

This whole idiom that legacy airlines are the ultimate goal for every pilot is just a bit outdated. We have captains making 500k+/year who are gone from home 10 nights a month. Plenty of FOs hitting 300k with similar QOL. And flying fully augmented LH is the easiest job in the world.

There are plenty of pilots here who are happy, and who have no reason or aspiration to jump ship. I have higher career earnings at Atlas than I would at AA for example. We are also treated like adults, without a need to send an M51 every time we block out 1 minute late, or when a gate agent tries to ding a delay on the pilots. I'm too old to ever see a WB at AA, flying to Tulsa for the rest of my career for less money is not an attractive proposition for me. I know it's hard to fathom for some, but that's just a raw fact.
