They want the “adventure” of flying that they missed out on during their airline careers. And there’s the medical. etc etc.
I will never go back to a place like NJA after I retire simply because I remember how sucky it was to fly with dinosaurs. NJA has enough weirdos and horrible captains that get pushed though training without having to add pilots who poop their pants and can’t see at night.

Pilots giving life advice...that's precious.

Here is the only thing you need to learn...be happy.

Seriously the pilot group deserves it but it ain’t gonna happen. Management is not going to pay more money out unless their hand is forced. Retired airline pilots are heading over in droves, classes are filled and overall attrition is low. There’s no reason to shorten duty days and improve QOL when so many pilots refuse to fatigue and take care of their mental and physical states. Until the metal stops moving for any reason, like they cannot fill classes, attrition becomes unmanageable, and these pilots stop flying half comatose, nothing real is going to happen.

that's interesting, in my interview class of 18, 6 were over 65 and retired airline guys, not one of them got hired?

4th time wasn’t a charm? Maybe 5th time will be the one, coming in 2019. If only FLYLOW22 were here to defend managements inaction.

Don't let facts get in the way of someone's attempt to talk out of their rear orifice.
