He is just very excited to be part of something new and wants to build anticipation to recruit the best pilots for prime air. I didn't take it as an insult. But it will be a big gamble for the pilots who do go there at at time with record hiring at established airlines with good pay and benefits. Will Bezos match that?
Sounds like more Bezos ego, than good business plan.

Yeah, those Amazon guys aren't very business savy. They don't know how to use cutting edge technology, like the copier or fax machines. That Interweb thing is just a flash in the pan. I'm backing up all of my data on wax cylinders.

This looks like a good way to turn $90 Billion into $45 Billion.
Of all the things in the world to invest in, airlines aren't historically a great choice.
Why would you take a great money printing operation and expose it to fuel prices, terrorism, FAA, ICAO, weather, etc? As it runs now, they are able to pass all blame and risk in those areas on.
