Such a lame debate tactic you guys use to ask inane questions then make a straw man argument that by refusing to answer your question it proves something. Lol. More signs of a failed educational system.
You keep telling us how horrible your career was and how you're owed something by "junior." I just want to know how horrible. Several of my friends were furloughed for years from Delta post 9/11 and have already had to retire. Or as in CX500 case, had to endure the suck pre-delta. How long were you furloughed? And how old were you when you were hired?

It's obvious he's not going to answer you. Maybe he doesn't want to dox himself, regardless, I'm not a referee or anything here, but maybe just let that go. You made your point already.

Their non-answer is the answer. It’s important to keep noting that every time NB invokes their suffering or coöpts that of others.

My refusal to self dox and give irrelevant details of my career is no different than you refusing to give me and JB your name and meet privately instead of hiding behind a keyboard.

But by all means, keep the strawmen coming. Look, you got another notch on your post count! Go, you.

Year you were hired and age (doesn't even have to be exact, can say "late 20s") is not going to dox you.

the amount of time you were or were not furloughed is not a dox.


it is weird how scared you are of doxxing while also trying to get me to PM you my name, though

I generally stay out of the age 67 melee because I'm mostly agnostic to the subject. Never mind the total discounting of the middle seniority group who were harmed while at Delta (because for some reason this is the only thing that matters) and will be further harmed by another 2 year delay. It's a bit disingenuous to assume that current day progressions/financials will continue in perpetuity. I'm by no means an alarmist, but there are lots of signs that we may have already seen the best times we'll see for decades, with a strong likelihood of the global economies falling big time in the coming decade. On the bright side, our smaller international footprint will likely be a benefit (thought certainly not save us) when that happens lol.

To add: The certification of single or no pilot aircraft could berh well happen before the newest new hire retires and would be absolutely devastating to anyone still on property. To claim that it's all sunshine and rainbows for the 1 year ER captains is disingenuous

this is my concern as someone with 25 + years to go. Airbus is pushing single pilot/ autonomous in a big way. I don’t think it’s a coincidence we are fixated on being an all AB widebody fleet while Airbus is trying to get single pilot cruise ops approved on those aircraft.
