See I think a 15 year captain at NetJets coming into a "leave NetJets" thread on APC when he has no intention of leaving and especially no intention of even comparing NetJets to the thought of leaving, is way more absurd than somebody who worked for NetJets, left, and is commenting on a leave NetJets thread.
Gotta love how you spin things though.

Why don't you go contribute to a thread about your future?
Virgin... Alaska... and how you intend on surviving the next wave I've lost deregulatory consolidation when Alaska is identified as a takeover candidate.
Talk amongst your new peers...
we'll be selling shares like hot cakes here.

And you won't be selling 650 shares like hot cakes, NetJets can't give those away. You would think when everyone else is absolutely killing it with growth, revenue, and profits, that NetJets would be doing the same, nope. Frontier made more on baggage fees ALONE than NetJets made in total net. But no, please keep comparing NetJets, who furloughed 20% of their workforce, recalled them 3 years ago and barely turned a profit in 2016 to two companies that have never furloughed and a company that buys their aircraft cash, it's really entertaining to read.

Standby for news about the 650s. Those were never part of this EMTs decision making.
I want the airlines to do well. I need them to go to and from tours. And I do not want my friends feeling pain at work. We're a large family/friend structure.
Bit, those of us know the downturn always follows the upswings. Usually, it's brought on by $100 barrel oil, not a financial downturn.
We all know what happens then... and it sucks. Not nearly as much for NJA as it does 121. The other factors mentioned previously have either reared their ugly heads before and there's track history on them or the writing is more or less on the wall.
I hate these truths as much as anyone should. Our differences lie in the fact that you don't seem to want to believe me. And it's fine. Time will teach.
All of those things you mention regarding Alaska... yeah... those are target rich environments for takeover.
Cash cash cash is king.

You want your perceived manifestation of a future downturn to come true so you can say "see told ya so!" which is quite perverse. Its insane really. And again, here come these pesky old facts again so brace yourself. Written history would disagree with you about NetJets being impervious to economic issues. An economic downturn is more likely than another terrorist attack, and NetJets is in no position to survive another market crash like 2008. So you can compare NetJets to 121 and not all airlines furloughed, but NetJets definitely did.
Management says things like "we aren't planning on furloughing" and "if we hired more we would have to furlough." You don't say those things to the worker bees if your balance sheet is solid. NetJets is on the rebound but they are probably the more vulnerable than they have ever been to any economic issues and clearly there are no plans to expand by management, they aren't able to hire and train, and pad staffing levels for future growth, those signs point to high vulnerability. Not saying there aren't airlines that are operating the exact same way, but you can't act like the NetJets s*&t don't stink.

NetJets didn't thrive from a terrorist attack. Did NetJets sell out durin the Oklahoma City bombing? No they didn't. NetJets benefited from the airline industry being severely crippled, nothing more, nothing less. So another airline shattering terrorist attack would benefit NetJets, ok then. How many major terrorist attacks have occurred on US soil versus how many severe economic downturns? You are betting on a terrorist attack to save NetJets? How freaking sick are you?
Yep I was born in 82, and and you were having your parents wipe your ass in 82, you were no more privy to the airline industry than I was so save the jabs. You are proof positive that experience doesn't equal intelligence. NetJets has followed the economic ups and downs just like the 121 industry 2008 proved that. But unlike the airline industry, NetJets still hasn't recovered.

If realistic views on a company are not allowed, and that is considered burning bridges, so be it.
