da90drivr said:How did a Flight Attendant exchange program turn into a debate over who is going to fly A330's (which neither company owns or flys)? Maybe it both companies can learn from each other.
Dave Barger has a 7percent stake in the airline, good for him. Perhaps he is trying to make a little more money in this industry.
As for the 2000 hour pilots, very different training program and process as well as the other factors mentioned by the othe posters.
Because many of us have been whip-sawed to death in our careers and we don't care to have it happen again. Airbus 330's are the least of our worries if we end up with an alter-ego and the foreign ownership rules get thrown out by a Republican congress. After that you'll see a whole new round of "whose the lowest bidder."
...and please spare me the whole "trust in leadership" speech because I've heard it all before and the only place I've ever seen it play out is Southwest.
We may be the benificiaries of the same type of leadership but the vibe I've been getting at recurrent does not give me a warm and fuzzy.
