That's a couple "ifs". They aren't and oil isn't. Those are a couple "facts".

FFB has hit the nail on the head. Its not about running a successful business. Its about running the stock up and selling. Hedge funds are systematically destroying any long term value in the US economy to make their quick bucks.

The average volume for XJT on the market is 803,006 a day. With the fund owning several million shares they'd basically have to give the stock away. The second they tried to sell any type of large quantity the price would immediately drop. That's if someone buys it. They could just sit there for sale.

Well... guess it sucks when reality bites you in the butt. I don't expect you to like it. Turn a blind eye and try and make all the sense of it you can. Play ignorant. I don't care. I'm not trying to be rude it's just being a little realistic on the matter. Stock is low, XJT doesn't have many assets because they lease aircraft, they aren't doing very well on the branded. Call it startup costs, say how this was expected, say how it's ok because the company did a noble thing by taking the planes and keeping pilots jobs, but the company is bleeding. Whether I worked there or not I wouldn't let my vision of the place become distorted by my affection for it.

We can say how mesa, commair, eagle, and the dozen other companies aren't doing well, but say XJT isn't looking too healthy and I feel like I almost need to apologize and give someone a hug because feelings got hurt. Don't know why you sink to that level. I don't think any of us have said it was the pilot's fault, or management's fault, but it is the truth. Come down off the cross.

I guess you don't know any better, you have only been on line for........................wait a sec I don't think you have even started Initial..............

when I am at work, in front of the pax, or briefing a CA, or representing an F/O that comes to me for help, I will be "professional", but on here when we all need to vent and share our daily grievances and stories, "like B.S.ing with some old friends..............sorry I just won't be as professional as you would like.......

chill out man.. just making sure you were kidding and not being serious there. I GOT IT... you should realize people besides "US" read this forum though. I definatley found that out the hard way...
