Sounds like Delta could be equally liable if that data is ever used for nefarious purposes.

What guardrails are in place to prevent you from doing the same? Except maybe your lack of technical expertise to produce something useful, you might be selling that same data?

Lol. Your personal attacks don't hit, because your opinion means nothing to me. You're wasting your bandwidth on somebody who does not care what you think. At least if you're going to post, try to be funny or pithy.

That was a serious question. No need for me to be pithy or funny. What prevents you from selling the data for nefarious purposes? Or, are you just making straw man arguments?

Your "concerns" aren't really based on that thing that I call logic.

I am not going to debate rhetorical questions with a senile old man who made poor life choices and wants to blame "Junior" for them.

QED. Thanks for playing. If you don't have a logical answer, deflect, insult, and act affronted. Works in elementary school.(maybe)

The world you live in sounds terrifying.

We hear that a lot from your age group. Don't worry, we'll still program the FMS for you and get the radio calls you miss.

Absolutely terrifying.

Now about the AE, who's gonna have the break down first?

My prediction is this month will go more junior. I know some may say there are “notEnuf” openings to create the super juniors awards, which is true, I do believe there “areEnuf” openings for 11XXX WBB and continue with the 1 year CA awards.

If you look at trends over the last year, a lot of the MSP330 spots get filled with senior 320/73N pilots so that may be the one bug-a-boo that hurts the 11X WBB dreamers. ATL330 should gain some DTW and NYC 330 pilots so that’ll make for some backfills in the motor city and big Apple. 350 will continue to go senior with lack of openings.

I think the fact that we have more than quadruple the amount of 330B openings this month AND training over the start of the holiday season will help junior folks the most. I’d expect the same deal with September too. They are also starting to staff S24 so that’ll keep the numbers higher too.

To sum up my thoughts, I think the biggest factor for this AE and next will be the holidays. The biggest reason that monthly AEs go senior is because you finally know when training is. I can’t imagine a lot of folks (senior ones) willing to train over the holidays and volunteer their time to go sweat a new plane when they could be playing Santa Claus for their kids instead. Although playing Santa may be more stressful ;)
