Ask the 30% that voted no. Just like the 30% that will vote no here.

Good point. I stand corrected.

As Sen. Everett Derksen famously said, a billion here, a billion there. soon you are talking about real money.

Yes and No, anything without family obligations makes airline scheduling easier in life, IMAX or not.

More and more pilots are IMAXing, there is a reason for that, they are learning from others and just starting. Others simply don't give a crap about anything and can't be bothered to learn anything about the contract to improve their lives, more than a few over the years have had their spouses bid for them or leave money on the table every day.

Claiming some vague "there's a reason for that" is pure ignorance and stupidity, but no surprise to hear.

If you wonder where senior idiots come from, just upgrade.

Try not to live up the expected behavior of your past posts. Yes, I've read 10K's about airline finances about how it can affect our careers and I simply pointed out a FACT that may or may not concern you, that paying off and having no debt in the business is bad news. You may be aware of the risk, good.

I mentioned Checchi and NWA? Ring a bell. Where were you when it happened? I was reading the financial info about the fallout of a low debt company getting screwed.

Congrats on getting hired at DAL. Hopefully they can manage the CAPEX for the 757/767 replacement cost.

i will admit that was a good burn at the end. Well played sir

Didn't mean a personal insult to you, I spent close to 2 decades in the right seat wondering where some of these clueless company senior hacks came from( majority guys were great)

Then I upgraded and saw the clueless company hacks in the right seat (again outside majority of good guys and gals)

Best to both our careers

"Overall value" isn't the gauge. Isom himself is on video saying he was prepared to "match" DL. It's totally disingenuous to say AA didn't match DL, then UA on the vast majority of the bullet points, including pay tables to the penny. It's one long list of "me too" snap-ups.

I have kids at home, and I'm running into IMAX, although accidentally. Just been running my PPROJ up as high as I can tolerate in order to pay for a home under construction that always seems to be going over budget! Can't wait to slow down once it's completed, however.

Thats the thing about IMAX, you’d be way better off getting a spread sheet and running a game-plan than just high flying. High flying alone will get you in IMAX hell, the negative side of IMAX where you get limited to about 75 hours and no free time off. Consider speaking with some experts.
