The first dozen aircraft from their order for 75 A380's should be arriving at the same time you are interested in working there!

You're both wrong, it's a codeshare with Virgin Galactic. New hires will be typed on Spaceship One.

A good captain is not someone who goes about demeaning people , especially publicaly, but instills procedures and values to make other pilots better. But I digress bro...

I actually spoke to RG this morning, and though the summary of what he said wasn't all good news, it wasn't apocalyptic either. He reiterated what he's been saying for the past year. That we can't retain pilots (like most other regional airlines ) and now with the addition of going independent from United therefore losing the benefits now its going be difficult to retain FAs. He never once mentioned bankruptcy, least alone within 5 months.
You clearly exaggerated and then boldly speculated with your own opinions and whims.
when you post in a public forum you owe the public a certain level of ethical honestly. But whatevs, you tried causing more hysteria than cnn on the embola outbreak.
I can't wait to fly with you!

My apologies mr gangsta, I didn't know that grammatical mistakes where your sore spot. I do realize its a public forum at an airline webpage. I didn't know I was out here to impress you. Sadly enough there was grammatical mistakes on your post aswell so let's keep the criticism to a minimum. If you are so worried about how people write then maybe you will be more confortable teaching English at a highschool.
Secondly, what I "lack" on my writing skills you clearly lack on reading comprehension.
I'm not going to drag this any further, but if you read one of the first paragraphs of my rant I clearly stated that this was "my opinion based on observations". What you read was just what I'm deriving out of my thoughts. You clearly missed the point.
Also, did I ever refer to my fellow pilots as McDonald employees? Again your reading skills are as good as a 5th graders. I was clearly comparing the wages of our first officers to those wages of a McDonald's employee. Don't like the comparison? Well then use a Walmart employee, office max, Kmart, target, Burger King... Take your pick, point is, our wages are as low as the latter.
Keep your panties on "play boy", looks like you are the type who takes an opinion down the back end and cry about it.
The day I can present actual FACTS, then fire away.
Your clearly the type of sheep that believes and follows anything you read on the Internet.
I was just trying to provide an argument so that people who are here and the future ones that come here have a insight of what's going on and of what to expect.

Default Oh and btw

Why don't you ask RH what he is doing Nov. 3rd.
Our "leader" looking to bail out really leaves a nasty taste in your mouth. Clearly he has as much faith in this place as you do .

I'm just going to wrap this up quick, not going to be dragged into APC forum tussle like every other bozo in other threads on this site.I would like to believe everyone at this airline is trying to move on. RG applying to other airlines is not unexpected. I'm also applying. Every regional pilot is applying to oother airlines, that's what we do. If you waited this long to apply to other places then that's your prerogative. Also I find your aggressive tone to be overly cynical, if I'm a "sheep that believes everything on the Internet" i quickly failed myself when I didn't believe half of your opinions and I presented a thoughtful logical retort. Logically speaking going babankrupt isn't even realistic in 5 months. But besides that, why spend the cash to relocate everyone just to wind this place down.
This airline is far from the best. I myself critique management each and every day. Loosing the United benefits is disappointing. However I think the changes they are attempting to make is wants necessary to lead future pilots to a better QOL
