No better than anyone else. True. Better compensated than many others with better benefits and better contract (for now)? Yes. Better pilots or whatever? No. At least, not necessarily.

Still, nothing wrong with taking pride in who you are, errrr, were.

What's the point of getting a new operating certificate. And having a holding company. Corporate America is disgusting.

There are around 550 airframes flying for AAG as feeders today, Eagle operates 225 or 40%, don't let the 10 regionals fool you, Transtates counts as a feeder and they operate 3-5 airplanes. And yes I do realize we operate mainly 50 seat airplanes and have no guarantee to any of the airplanes, but we are 40% of the pilots flying for AAG's regional feed.

I've heard that 1 of the previous MEC yes voters is now a no. Let's hope this gets shot down at the MEC level, I have no faith in the Eagle pilot group.

To celebrate the merger.

AAnUS, a missed opportunity!

Why do you keep saying that You have no faith in eagle pilots? Why don't you actually do something about it. Go out and educate your people instead of constantly pouting about your feelings.
Do you think all those lax/ sju people are happy and about to give one inch to egl? Get a grip
