Didn't you say that when you were put on the street by TWA, US Air and AA?

Nobody is safe from the industry and economy. You aren't any more safe at NJA, in fact your situation is more precarious for a number of reasons. When Uncle Warren dies and BH doesn't feel like supporting a business that doesn't move the needle in terms of profit and returns, it can be put up for liquidation overnight. Very few airlines, like maybe 2, could go away tomorrow, and not completely disrupt world travel. NJA could go away tomorrow and everyone will just buy Flex shares, hell there are more private jets in South Florida than the entire NJA fleet. That and when all those annual Wall St bonus checks don't turn into jet cards and fractional ownership, it will be a rinse and repeat of 2008. I don't care if the owner contracts where "fixed" or not. When everyone wants to sell, it will be disastrous.

Try thinking about somebody other than yourself. You might survive the next furlough but many of the guys you screw over by extending more than any other captain, won't be so lucky.

 

Mic drop....


I'll give Flylow/Retract/JL this. He's consistent. Consistently wrong.

 

Just got my Jan schedule...there went my 7/8-day tours. SHOCKER!

 

Doing 251kts below 10,000 in a Phenom???

That’s like redline for that plane isn’t it?

Another mic drop.

 

Tour slide em for mega tours.

 

Oh man.

Personally, I think the only thing worse than starting over at an airline just prior to a recession slowdown with oil price increases is gaining the attention of people at your new airline that you don’t want to be while on probation.

NG/DS.

Worse than losing the respect of all of your co-workwes that you have to face for the next 40 years?

 

As if that would ever be approved.
They knew what they were doing. Union got played.

 

I’m honestly shocked the pilot group didn’t see this coming...
