Eagle is at best a huge road block to an aspiring Major Airline pilot's career path or a career killer as I saw it.
You seem to always defend a career at Eagle one way or the other on this board. I think it would be fairer to have everyone tell their side, which is probably overwhelmingly negative in parity with inverse order of the Eagle seniority list, than to have someone with their own agenda to purport the wonders of Eagle life and career. Anyone who has done any investigation as to the state of Eagle would call that bluff.
Don’t Eagle pilots get a bonus from the company for people that they recommend and get hired? Since Eagle’s staffing is awful, wouldn’t it desperately help an Eagle pilot to have more new hires on board, FO’s and CA’s alike? Haven’t some upgrades been canceled due to lack of staffing of FO’s? Aren’t there CA’s having to fly the right seat because of the shortage of FO’s? The answer to those questions would sound like reasons for trying to encourage pilots to go to Eagle, not because it is in their best interest.
