So this again leads me to say whoGAS about any of this? This is not our problem. (I am not even convinced it even IS a problem) But if you and Mesabah want to wrap yourselves around the axle about this, I will politely decline to participate. I would rather fix myself a cocktail with a little umbrella in it and watch the show. (The DCI show)

I have been wondering the same thing. You expressed it much better than I could have.

Well, I don't fly very much, work at a computer all day mostly. I have three screens, the first two screens are work, the third is multiple forums. Just calling the industry as I see. If you knew me, and my background you would understand. My family has been in aviation since the Wright brothers days. My posts are not butthurt, they simply sound that way because it's in text, and not me speaking to you.

Everyone has had some sort of crap sandwich the last 10 years. I didn't lose my retirement, you did. You didn't get an extra 5 years on reserve as a narrowbody FO, I did. Newhires getting hired right now will be captains in 7 years and retire with millions of dollars so they all suck the most.

You get an extra 5 years as an ER captain. I get an extra 5 years as a reserve narrowobody FO. I will retire at 65 and have the same number of years as a CA as I would have had, had the retirement age stayed at 60.

My guess is that the small jet carriers walk away from Delta after the rate reset, and takes their pilots with them. Chataqua already is walking, Compass is walking soon, ASA/SKY is on the ropes, Gojets will collapse on its own, so will Endeavor. Endeavor is losing 2 pilots a day, with no let up in sight.
GoJets has been pretty quiet through all of this though. Makes you wonder what's going on there.

But at least we have 117 to keep us rested and refreshed now.
