Thank you.
No, I think he thinks he speaks HERE for 3000 pilots. Of those at Eagle here on the forum though, he seem so get more support then criticism, thus what is one supposed to think ?

Besides, I said AFAIC. I was referring to my own perceptions, not claiming anything else. To do so, would simply make myself like him.

LOL !!!

There APPEARS to be less drama because most are on the same page on these issues and reinforce each other's dysfunctionality (a high-fiver's paradise too). When I left, I found it to be a cesspool of political and religious propwash hijacked by conservative agenda moderated by a meglomaniac.

YMMV.

I don't care who is talking by who in this forum. I don't care what wingtips, eaglefly or other person behind a computer says about EAGLE OR AA!!!! They don't represent me, and even ALPA just represent themselves (because all the MEC want is to get into AA even screwing the junior group).

I just keep seeing you guys fighting for Eagle and AA if they where the last company in the world. AA sucks, eagle sucks, regional sucks.

I just want to get out of this hole ASAP. Why? Because morale is very low, and all the people do is bash the problem to the other group. I'm usually a happy person, but all this **** is getting in my nerves.

I'm just tired of read 555 pages about the same stuff. It was more fun when everyone was asking questions about training, interviews, etc. Even talking about the stupid divestiture.

Can we just calm down and try to solve the stupid problem AMR is getting us?? Can't you guys see that this is what they want?? They want to **** the pilots so they can get what they want.... CHEAP FLYING and a lot of management BONUS!!!!!!!

Let's stay strong, even if is one list for both companies. Even if is means eagle get stapple at the end of the AA list, or DOH or getting scope relief so at least current AA pilots and young people like me (and yes, I'm young 25yrs only), starting in this ****ty company can stay with a job. I do have 550 guys below me after the next furlough, but is sad seeing people lose a job because management, AA and AE can't get their **** together.

ah those were the days. Sad thing is that was only about 4-5 months ago. Back then i was planning on upgrading in 3 years and being at AA by 6 years.

EL is full of some of the most childish pilots in the industry. There are about 10 prominent members who only allow people in their clubhouse if you follow everything they say. EL makes me embarrassed to fly for Eagle. Rumors, catfights and new-hire bashing is all that goes on there. Great motivation and learning tool as to know how not to act and talk as a senior pilot.

All this has been going on for years. When you're new to it, it can be more frustrating. Brace yourself, because it's likely to get much worse.

The moderating is a joke. He selectively chooses which posts he will allow and not allow. Basically, if you're his buddy you can say WHATEVER you want, if not, you'll get banned/suspended/warned. That's a simple fact. I gave up on that site long ago.

Just curious, what were you basing those plans on.........AMR or ALPA promises ?

AA is likely to be much smaller 5 years from now and depending on where the future RJ's go, captaincy may be questionable. In a week you should get your term sheet and if you're willing to work cheaper then everyone else, you'll have a better chance of upgrade faster.
