Lucky for me it doesn't matter which one you are. Hope you find the help you need.
Huh? No connection to frontier whatsoever. Cal side prior. Frontier is just on the chopping block after ua/DL/sw grind the competition down.

The industry is shrinking 20-30% due to the deep global recession we're in. Just wait for the revisions and the fallout in unemployment and spending.

Nothing crazy going on. Buy low sell high. Use the system to become lazy.🤷

The main point is the the 44 year bubble we're in is ending and most people think the post Marshall plan world is normal. It isn't, and the age of abundance is over as we pivot from China. China's economy is imploding. It's a potemkin village and the ccp is incredibly corrupt.

Takes a decade and a commodity supercycle to rebuild our industrial base and supply chains to allies. We're copying China in that respect.

Expect oil prices to be $500 in a decade which won't help transports, but that means the economy will be ripping.

Notice air Wisconsin was sold for their type certificate?
​​​​​​ Everything is going high end. This is good for ua and DL. Sw is adding lounges and widebodies on the cheap. Not good for the low end.

Things will look very different as the global economy recovers.

It's good long term, but very turbulent few years.

Cheers

Cal side? You were asking about training hotels at Frontier in 2018.

Explain please

Not me. Buddy of mine who didn't use this website. Lol wow. Totally forgot about that.

Ulcc are unsustainable. I told everyone to avoid them, but I'll help a brother out. He's at sw now

Dude. I'll go now. Don't say you weren't warned. Hope you're a better pilot than investor. Otherwise you're in for a rude awakening.

Says a lot more about you than it does about me.

Pilots, their golden handcuffs and God complex. This is literally the most likely thing that will happen. More car debt than sub prime crisis. 1.6 trillion with the average note underwater $14k+. Gfc was 800 billion.

Nothing changed, people just went on autopilot.

How do you go bankrupt? Little, by little, then all at once.

Everyone was bailed out during covid and the zombie companies can't make money at these rates. The economy is being strangled to death. It'll be 4x larger than the gfc.

Fat dumb and happy. I guess people need to learn for themselves. You'd think pilots would be better at risk management?

Cheers

Yep. He did the same thing in the Sprit forums a couple weeks ago. If he comes back, please report via the gear icon. Thanks for the reports folks.
