    Getting logbook up to date

    Oh I remember when I was first hired by a major and a captain, noticing me updating my logbook, pompously stated , "son, why you doin' that!? You're at a major, you'll never need a logbook again." After nine years of furlough and multiple corporate bankruptcies can I strongly recommend the...

    Ripped jeans, American new hire class photo

    And just when I'd convinced myself that women and minorities have all the advantage in getting hired by the majors along comes THIS picture.

    Major Airline Captains, would you recommend career to your son/daughter?

    Exactly! Right or wrong, good parenting or not, I've directed my kids aways from this profession. Way too many pitfalls. A decade of furlough and permanent career stagnation has greatly altered my perspective. Choose a career where your skills are multi-faceted, that can be used in...

    American... Get that rig!

    Nice job aa73 intelligently summing up our position. And exactly why I voted 'yes'.

    AA makes offer to the APA----and it's.....well....uhhh

    In my mind profit sharing is risky and a way airline management plays employees for fools. Have we forgotten the decades of year over year losses? Is it not too difficult to show a loss through various accounting principles and the fluctuating price of oil? We are professionals whose careers...

    AA makes offer to the APA----and it's.....well....uhhh

    Geez, based upon this thread of continuous inane comments, it seems flightinfo.com has so little information of value anymore. Might as well watch Jerry Springer, it's classier.

    is 40 to 45 too old to get hired at a major?

    My gosh, 40!? At American you'll be so young you'll stand out like you lobsters growing from your head. Welcome AAAAboard.

    What the 717 leaving means

    This sounds painfully familiar...

    "What's next now for AA/US possible merger'

    There's nothing to say about the merger because all parties involved have to keep their mouths shut at this time. I think this means it's serious and likely going to be announced before the end of the year. IMO. And, as a former Tway guy sitting at the bottom of AA's forever stagnant...

    Flight cancellations surge at American Airlines

    G4, you go ahead and cross that line. I think you're looking through rose colored glasses though. I'm no big union guy, but who else do we pilots have on our side but ourselves? The press, the FAA, the docs, airline managements, the judges, Wall Street and the general public pretty much...

    Thank God for AMR Pilots!

    Indeed, Dizel8. You've got it right.

    AA liquidation

    Amen, and if the guys at the top of the union pyramid scheme don't fight for those guys at the bottom of the pyramid.....well, they deserve whatever crap comes their way.

    AA liquidation

    Good point. I have been at the bottom for so long, furloughed 9 years, recalled to a double commute and reserve. I can make it without AA and am willing to fight hard to make this place worth it. I do not fear AA failing. I wouldn't mind a more quiet and simple lifestyle.

    Looks Like Delta Will Be #3 Again...Now Who To Buy?

    Hot rumor from the training center at AA. Aeroflot interested in acquisition purchase of AA.

    AA Mechaninc goes BIG on Horton

    Horton's business plan includes sacrificing thousands of us low seniority folks' jobs because we're obviously what's wrong with AA. I AM NOT WHAT'S WRONG WITH AA and until he and his ilk recognize that I will never support them. Bring on US Airways and Doug Parker....I've nothing to lose as...

    Delta and TPG looking into AMR Corp bid

    I just don't worry about it anymore. Nine years of furlough from AA just to come back and sit reserve in NY on a Superdedooper 80. Bring it all on. I've little to lose and am ready for anything...including another furlough (please don't throw me in that briar patch ;) ).

    111 AA pilots retired on 9-1-11!

    A crazy stock market and a floundering economy probably have more to do with the retirements. If someone thinks due to the financials it's too scarey to come work with us at AA, fine with me. As for me, I wish I were ten years younger attending class in DFW now. Could be a really good deal.
