I took that gamble in 2015. Broke contract flying 175’s based out of MCI. My classmates at the old shop are all getting 5 year congratulatory emails, and I won’t see year 5 at PDT.

Still, old shaky was a pleasure to fly, and I miss it on gusty days.

I went for a run once and didn't bring my phone. Of course they called to change my rap for the next day and chewed me out a bit. Probably one of like five times they called me.

I know that anything can change, but I think lot of us who came in 2014/2015 saw the writing on the walls and knew what was coming. Wasn't pure luck or a huge gamble in my opinion. But many of my friends didn't come here simply because of the dash, and that's comical

Keep in mind the sub 5 year flow is only for a short period of time. It’ll look really good for the next 6-12 months then get progressively worse
