Are you a really really junior FO who somehow thinks that your endless predictions will encourage guys above you to bail so you can get off reserve? Dude, give it a rest. We all know the sky is falling and this airline is gonna lose a metric ton of flying. But enough already.

Yes, he previously said he’s at the 5400+ level.
He’s just a troll who should be instantly dismissed when his name pops up.

You know very well that is not what happened. United released a NPDM. All that does is provide contractually required notification that they are looking to make staffing changes such as expanding or shrinking a base, or opening, or closing one. Nothing has been announced about eliminating anything. They could eliminate the 756 completely, or just close a few bases and consolidate that flying on the east coast. I’m really thinking that you and Melit would get along just fine. Discussing an issue is one thing, but popping off half truths just to get a reaction is another.

Edit: that was supposed to show reference to a post by Domino, not Air Stang 7. I don’t know what happened.

I don’t think there will be a famine. Unless you’re a pilot. Then yes. It’s a likelihood. But we will be so busy with the collapsing marriages and
crumbling economy, we won’t have an appetite to worry about food not being there.

There will definitely be a famine, every airline pilot will lose their jobs.
The government is going to take over the industry and end all commercial travel until 2050.
100% of pilot marriages will be ended by the end of the year.
FACT

not what it said troll. Don’t speak about things that you have no clue about. You are out of touch with reality and needlessly striking fear in people that are already stressed out.
