IF YOU WANT TO SEE WHAT SWIFTs FUTURE WILL BE, LOOK NO FURTHER THAN CENTURION-I mean SkyLease...

This purchase is the eventual fate of all 36th performers. If you can fly consistently and become dependable, a group of shady investors with vague backgrounds will come in and start pumping you full of steroids and protein shakes so you can fly faster and more often. iAero=pump and dump.
Very asserted post.

Yeah a one crash airline is correct, we’re not delta or American who have had hundreds of incidents/accidents a year and can afford to stay afloat with their billions in insurance, lawyers etc. Doing it right the first time is key and that’s a struggle growing fast and trying to maintain a status quo. We have come a long way from what we were years ago. The mom and pop airline mentality unfortunately still exists in the operation and as it grows it’s unsustainable as you get to 200 pilots and 30 plus acft. FOQA is being implemented to help that and we do have gate keepers calling asking about flights. So they are keeping score.

I have never as CA, FO or LCA been made to do anything outside of safety or regulation. Nor have I ever felt the repercussions from it. 2 people sign the release not just one. Even if you’re the FO you have a say. Walk away and if as you guys claim someone pushes you ASAP it, report it etc. Your leadership doesn’t always know everything, show them in the book. Call out your CA. How many accidents have happened because the FO sits there and lets the CA dig both of their graves.....
Delta and American have hundreds of accidents/incidents every year?

I work for a company that has over 4000 flights a day and we don't have hundreds of incidents let alone accidents a year.

By the grace of God, the fact that Swift hasn't had more "incidents" is a testament to the crews

Still caring after you leave I see, I can promise you let the “heavy hitters” watch me, I have no explaining to do because I’m honest with every single person that walks through the door. But thanks dude 👌

Not picking sides, but that is true. They also run around 900 planes each and several thousand flights per day. In the grand scheme I’d say they’re no worse or better. It’s a misleading stat, but is true. There are hundreds of incidents/accidents every year.

American and Delta are both in the top 20
