Yeah cause absolutely no junior guys would rather fly a 70 seater for more pay

I bet all these ignorant gulfstreamers/jetu/senior guys you speak of would vote yes to a 10% cut in exchange for some Boeing stickers to plaster all over their flight cases. If only every pilot was as wise as you! Where do you come up with this crap from seriously?

Well the possibility exists. But as it stands now, no one but AE may fly that size aircraft in AA colors. BK doesn't guarantee that will change.

That's just a rumor. I haven't seen any confirmation that GoJet is unable to staff the additional flying they have been awarded.

What is wishful thinking? That G7 is able to staff the jets? I don't really care as I'm mainline & want it all back anyways.
