edit: until the lines all drop to 11 days off we are not short.
Things can't be that bleak. Why would your former CEO send his kid to Piedmont to be a pilot if the place was going away? It's not. AA has always loved Piedmont. It might not be the best place, but it's not going away either.

Are you referring to the former former CEO whos nephew was a pilot here? The nephew who has apparently left the industry altogether?

No he’s not. They are referring to LH’s son, he’s a new hire. And it’s a good point, he would not be here if we were going anywhere.

AA would not shut down Piedmont. They may consolidate/merge or give a new fleet type in the future, but to shut down completely would be unrealistic.

Every PDT guy I run into has nothing but good things to say about pay, QOL, and morale. I had no idea how good things were going with you guys and how sharp your management team is.

Sounds like a great time to be a PDT pilot. You're putting yourselves in a position to be the premier AA WO'd.

Edit: So they even posted the CP’s name, obviously somebody took a screenshot and forwarded the email to the public.

They got everything right in this story - you’re complaining about things that exist only in your head

Nah $100 says the author typed in Piedmont airlines, then just copy and pasted with some slight tweaking.
