First off don't feed the trolls, it's just not worth it.
As for the contract, the training "point" system does not apply to newbies either.
The LOA is being worked on as we speak, company does not want to offer it as is, they want to make some mods.
As for our future, a lot depends on what happens with AA.
They are gonna stay fat with pilots until they know our fleet plan and them there may or may not be furloughs, will just depend on the fleet and the schedule of replacements, etc.
I think it's a given the ATR's are all going away, but the timeframe is unknown. We still have scope issues to work out before that can be handed off to another carrier to assume

Keep in mind this is the training dept you are dealing with NOT crew scheduling!
These folks in the training dept really have NO clue what they are doing! It's one mistake after another when dealing with them.
I've not been with eagle very long, but in my short time here i have had no major issues with C/S!

With that said, however, this situation was handled properly by the student awaiting IOE.

What's wrong with being "stuck" as an FO? I know I'm twice as happy as you are, with more days off, and more disposable income since you insinuate money equates "status". Are you going to brag again that you make 100K as an RJ CA, ooooooo.

Its been getting better as your generation dies off. There's been more selflessness in the current generation than most eagle lifers, including those that sucked this place dry only to flow to a company that would not hire them.

That will end soon, worst off we just go somewhere else with a quick upgrade. We have nothing to lose.

too much logic for a web forum!!! You might cause the website to shutdown if you keep that up!

It means you end up being the next "lifer" at Eagle without any decent company that would hire you. Unfortunately in your case, there won't be anything to suck dry as you will have poured it on the ground already.
Enjoy your "career" son.

Above is the perfect example of the quick buck (upgrade) artist and the new generation "selfless" Eagle pilot. Unfortunately, he too fails to see that this philosophy only means more RJ's and less mainline jobs and thus another "lifer" is born who will have no decent airline that will hire him.
