Agree.

Yes, nice to get paid for the deed.

However, the fact they willfully do it all the time is what has always bothered me. I get operational integrity. Lately has gone too far IMHO.

Now that NY is lifting its travel "quarantine" come 1 April (not a prank) - we are going to find ourselves way behind the personnel power curve. Everyone on the line sees it coming - from gate agents, FA's, underwing, to us pilots.

Far more suited for it than RG ever will be. Plus BS is a really good dude. Knew him from his Expressjet days. He's on point and I would welcome him moving up to SVP.
Yup from what I've heard it's a two horse race between BS and RG and I think BS has the upper hand. Despite all the line rumors RG is a good dude as well ask Endeavor pilots.

Have you seen the two speak? Not even close.

RG will be shuffled off somewhere. Don't feel sorry for him. Especially since he said "what's a SIL". Oh yeah, and "I can run the schedule (2018 forward) with a thousand less pilots". Yeah, saw how that worked out. Even had to write a mea culpa letter for that one. You know the "sorry we ran the operation too hot letter".

As a pilot group and airline; Flight Operations would be better served by BS. Yes I am biased, I know the guy. Top notch.

I was referring to the RG is a good dude comment. I agree with BS, have met him and was very impressed.

RG may very well be an extremely nice guy, but he did himself no favors at all with the pilot group with his handling of the operation since his arrival.

It doesn't really matter what happened at Endeavour, good or bad.

The place he's been running a department of since then, cancels 500 flights every time there is a holiday.

Totally unacceptable.

I KNOW this has to be sarcasm... NO ONE at Pinnacle/Endeavor would agree with that statement. Karma, all I'm gonna say.

Genuine question: Who will the company’s point man/woman be for negotiations now?

Given a couple things BS (the VP) said in the Training town hall (which seemed innocuous at the time) I wonder if it’s him?
