Woah big fella. That's FTB you are talking to there.

In CRs defense, I think when they put out a newsletter regarding plans for the future, they absolutely believe what they said is correct. But....CR is driven by network planning. Network planning changes things constantly based on market conditions. CR has to adapt on the fly.

That said I absolutely believe there will be a bid before Jan 19.

Ok, some seem to take offense at my satire Let me try a different tack. CR said they would close the DTW 777 base....they did. They said they would expand the DTW 350 base.....they did. They said they would open a MSP 330 base.... they did..Draw down/ close md88....done . Open the cs100.... done......in NYC?....done . Another location, possibly LAX.....dine and not quite. Opensed it in SLC not LAX. So.... liar, liar pants on fire???

So, if a pilot read the CR newsletter, sold his house, moved to LA in anticipation of a new CA100 base because they felt sure they could hold it( if /when the AE was published), then I can understand the gnashing of teeth. If however, one waited for the AE....bid it....looked at the results of said AE.....one might go ....what's the BFD

It's analagous to being disappointed when unwrapping Christmas presents as a kid and you didn't get what you think your parents insinuated you would get. Did you call them liars and their present sh@t? It's better than a lump of coal and probably not worthy of the characterization (nee statement) that CR lies, purposely misleads, is incompetent and/or their newsletter is bulls@@@t.

Again, if you believe it is trash, why read it and then let it upset you? Nobody has answered that original question although you certainly have some ardent supporters.....maybe they can pull out the talking points memo and provide a brother a clue

For perspective, I feel the angst of those that have CJO's.(that are deferred until????) They probably made real life decisions based on info that changed. I truly empathize.....if you are military, welcome to the airline business(here is your kick in your junk), if you have been around a while, you should know better

FTB = 22,000 posts

Buck = 67 posts

UGBSM = keepin score

Yes.

Buck Rogers

22,000?

I'm not sure if that is inspiring or embarrasing

I can honestly say that that is not my aspiration

RockyBoy

It is awe inspiring. You should have been around for the pancakes on bunnys era. The amount of APC knowledge and skill emanating from FTB will never be matched.

What you could take from it is that he's been here on this forum 10 years longer than you....


April 2008 vs. your April 2018.

Sorry, is this a contest for length of time on the forum?
Did not know this was a junk measuring contest and length of time was the sole arbiter of ability to post......hailing Plouffe....see my point?

If 20,000 posts makes him the most viril then I acquiesce. But he would be prepubescent compared to " he I shall not name again" and I but an embryo, compared to both of them

If it is 10 years of whining about CR being liars, incompetent worthless, I wont be here long enough to hear it
