Aero, I appreciate your ongoing contribution to this forum, and hope you will continue to call it as you see it. Thanks for the research and reasonable perspective.

I have been offered an A320 sim instructor position with one of the local MCO flight schools. They say they’re flexible with my work schedule. Has anyone worked for one of these places part time? It’s not ideal but I really need some money to pay my bills. Thanks in advance.

I'm not making stuff up, I'm trying to post the most accurate information possible. You are more than free to call it speculative or whatever, that's fine. I don't care what you think and feel. I engaged you on this forum because I thought your initial post about the 18, 1 month leaves of absence was unfair. You made it sound like the damn sky was falling, or that growth is not occurring here. Frontier is growing, and the sky is not falling. If you want to be upset about something, I think you should direct your attention to how the company is dealing with contrast negotiations.

I'm sorry if you came here believing you would upgrade in 2 years and the company would double in size instantly the day after you got on the seniority list. I'm really not sure what your thinking is, other than obviously being very pessimistic.

The fleet plan has gone virtually exactly as planned for the last 2 or 3 years. When the second order for 321s was placed, the fleet plan of 120 airplanes by 2022 was stated. We are on that track. I've taken the time to dig into it and I believe that's exactly the plan. Nothing happens quickly, so don't expect to rocket up the seniority list. We still have a lot of lease returns next year, growth isn't very quick in 2018. 2019 and 2020 are much bigger growth years.

I'm not here to tow the company line, I'm just trying to provide facts. I'm the only person on this forum that has posted specific numbers on the fleet plan. I've taken the time to verify it. I don't care what you think or feel. Delta has a job fair in Atlanta later this month, feel free the check it out

Amen! I Like Big Bus is a whiner and has the "sky is falling" mentality. Nobody to blame but himself for coming to Frontier. Please leave if you feel that F9 is not up to your specifications.
Aero, very nice post and spot on!

I'm wondering the same thing... And where is training being conducted? Base drop will be nice to know, when it happens.

Hahaha, you gotta be kidding me!
I wish I was making this up, but I have been PM'd in a weak and feeble attempt to I guess " intimidate" or "shame" me into being quiet on the forum. Too funny! I choose to believe that this would not be done by a line pilot and is just some management lackey or someone not associated with the pilot group at all. Don't worry Sport, I'm not going to out you in public. I'll let the moderators deal with you how they like. Just make sure you realize how impotent and sad this makes you look!

..........................priceless!!

Nope, sorry, not worth my time.

Has anyone found out about an October class or even if there are interviews this month?
