Was wondering what it would take to eventually move up to airline management once hired as a pilot at a major?
If you had an MBA and happened to be flying for several years, how hard would it be to get involved in the corporate side of things? If you did, could you still fly a little?
I am thinking about getting an MBA and could see doing that if I was able.
Thanks.
Did the moderators remove some comments on this thread? Why?
3. Sell the pilot group down the river
Reality of management and leadership, if someone has the answers it is their duty to step up and make it better. But it is so easy to ignore that reality and throw darts, call names, and think you have all the answers.Because the political arena is already full?
Somewhat seriously, if this person is an honorable man and has some smarts and leadership capabilities, then why not? Isn't that what management is sorely lacking? I do agree though this may be flame bait.

Who is more important to an airline, the pilot or the Exec making 500k in the corner office?
Well, the way I see it, on saturdays, sundays, and holidays, I'll bet the corporate office is all but deserted.
It would be a stretch to have none of the pilots show up. Most likely it'd be a bunch of retirees, management pilots, and others that would run a barebones schedule until the airline folded, thus the pilots would not have anywhere to show up to. The pilots would start over at the bottom of the list elsewhere with the corresponding loss of the income, and the execs would find themselves at a similar level or promoted elsewhere with a similar or higher level of income.What would happen to an airline if none of the pilots showed up?
Not enough. :beer:Sorry, too much Scotch, or not quite enough...
I've seen honorable men try to do these jobs. They end up either losing their honor, or getting fired. Honor and management are mutually exclusive.Somewhat seriously, if this person is an honorable man and has some smarts and leadership capabilities, then why not?

People with those qualities generally do not aspire to be management, and if they did make into those ranks, they would either be subverted, fired or hopefully, resign.
