It's all in how you interpret things - you glazed over the part that said 9E will offer close to 350 Captain Upgrades in 2016 - 29+ per month! Why not talk about that?
Because DOOOOOOM!!!!!!

They also said the ETD was the answer. You believe that?

Milk, this industry ebbs and flows so much over the course of 6, 9, 12 months, we need to just focus on the future.

The company certainly owned the errs of their way on ETD and delivered alternatives to stave attrition. How many ETD pilots were ultimately hired? A few dozen? How many has 9E hired or offered CJOs to in 2015? Close to 300? Retention payments and their DGI deal seems like the right formula.

Plus, again, anticipated 350 captain upgrades in 2016. But you go ahead and hold onto the past a little while longer.

It is poor form, we are already allowing them to hold back on a monthly basis and they just announced they are going to hold back next year. They hired almost twice the amount required for the max number to go, just take the 13 pilots.

While being wholly owned can be a double edge sword, I can't help but think it is going to be the WO that thrive over the next couple of years. Regional airline profit margins are razor thin, and WO's are viewed as cost centers not profit centers. There is little advantage to a mainline partner outsourcing its flying to publicly held companies that have shareholders to answer too. Watch the roadshow video on the new Mesa TA, they do a good job of explaining it IMO. Or maybe Im drinking too much Kool-Aid...

Just wait to be let down again at the end of 2016. Same folks that made all of the other promises.

Anyone have any leads on an MSP crash pad? My buddy needs one and he can't get PMs for some reason. If you can PM me I will pass it along.

Thanks in advance!

Because he can't turn that into something negative about Endeavor. He can talk about the upgrade that Compass or PSA can offer but, he won't talk about the upcoming upgrades when these guys with the CJO leave for Delta. He only picks out the negative things when it comes to Endeavor.

Silver, I got the idea from the MSP CA who went to EK and put a pic. That was all. Did a pic hurt so much? It was still simple enough. But some just need something - anything - to pounce.

And look, it's the same 4 pilots who respond in anger. What I said wasn't too much a stretch. Compass et al offer a quicker advancement and perhaps a better opportunity for the next step. No reason to be a used car dealer salesman here.
Isn't that cute, you asked around about me. I would tell anyone who asked on here who I am, but you won't will you?
THe sad part about you is that a couple people have said you actually aren't that bad of a guy in real life but you have a huge internet-toughguy syndrome. I guess when you hide behind a screen name it is easy to do that.

No, I don't go around other people's backs to get info here. You have the same avatar here as airlinks so that's how I figured. I'm not hiding anything and most here know who I am.
