This guy represents an unrealistic view on reality, and should not be viewed as anything close to fact. He spent multiple decades at Eagle and only got out via a flow through. That should be a huge red flag on who he is. He now posts over and over again of some kind of future in which everyone is stuck at regionals their entire life, with little hope of moving on......hmm sound familiar!

He soon will have people getting hired at AA and other majors much younger than him and a pipe dream of what he wanted in life. This has nothing to do with the stalled 10 years post 9/11, as he stalled the 10 years prior to 9/11.

A worthless post offering nothing but the demonstration of someone filled with hatred and grinding an ax that will never become sharp.

See a shrink.

Some also forget they will not drain their feed airlines to hire all of these pilots. They will take a limited amount a month from AE and the rest will be off the street new hires. Same thing happened last "flow through" agreement.

I know that is not what some want to hear or believe, but it will happen that way. Just be mentally prepared for things not going "as planned or expected".

LOL'd...Just like one of the youngest APD's ever that came from AE training.

IF it happens, and IF it takes five years, I think people are going to be surprised how junior that 824 goes. Get ready for Seniority Balancing...

Have you ever considered asking wingtips out on a date ?

I think you two would hit it off quite nicely, would have a lot in common and could fill the void in each others lives. :rolleyes:

Good estimate. Mandatory is closer to 3100 in the next 10 yrs.

Doesn't #824 have a 99-2000 doh?

It's a running 824..so for every 1 that passes on the flow, it goes a number past 824. I do think they want at least a year in the left seat though, correct?

So bankruptcy or a merger doesn't affect this? That'd be amazing if true.... I just doubt it happens as the original poster tried to make it sound....
