Just having the opinion that NK will not survive is not the same as cheering for it. And I think the vast majority of ex-NK feels this way.

i wouldn’t have even entertained this account. It’s actually sad watching what they’re going through now. Listing people like that while the boat is sinking is a real tear jerker.

Always a possibility for that sort of thing, but it's not any more likely now than any other time. Little regional brushfires don't matter. We're not going to war with RU. China would be an issue, big mess west of HI and would likely spill over a little bit to other regions.

lol, tell yourself that it’s not more likely now.

How would it go over with the flying public if a known state sponsor of terrorism were to target multiple US or Western aircraft?

Stick around sweetheart! history has a way of repeating itself. Ask the TWA, the UsAir, Eastern, Pan Am guys etc. Anyone that’s been in the industry long enough knows. From the sounds of it, your parents set you up well, flight school, reginal for quick stint, NK for awhile, now a legacy. Other then a little light chop from NK your career vector has been smooth. No 9/11, no financial crisis of 2010, positioned well to ride out Covid 19, afterwards it got a little rough for you and sky was falling.

If you have moved? Stop coming back to revisit you NK experience and enjoy your new gig/honeymoon period at your current airline. Hopefully it’s smooth for you the rest of your career and the rest of the peeps that jumped ship.

You believe in this dumpster fire? I’ve been trying to leave for over a year now. Some of my favorite comments from juicers on here are “I wouldn’t want to be on the bottom of Legacy right now”. And, “Look at PanAm, if it can happen to them, it can happen to Delta or United.”……..um, no it can’t. The US Federal government will never let any of the Big 4 go under. They are to big to fail. It would be like letting GMC go under or JP Morgan go under. Also, it took PanAm a decade to shrink itself by 50% before it finally went under. We have done it inside 12 months. They at least sold their Pacific division to United in 1985 which gave them another 6 years. Any ideas what we got paid for the 20+ West Coast cities we just abandoned and pulled out of over the past year?

I remember all the people that said “I do t wanna be at the bottom of a legacy list” around Covid time also. Then they hired 5-6k more…..
