Official: American Leaving STL!!

[G4G5]

Sorry to hear your pending furlough from AA, G4. This situation is made even worse by your earlier decision to pass up jetBlue back in 2000. That must be like throwing salt on the old wound when you replay that one in your mind.

Oh well, if its any consolation, most folks would have made the same choice to go with the "sure thing." Good luck finding work with Coke.

It's the luck of the draw. At Jet Blue I'd be approx #75 on the list. If I had stayed at DAL or NWA I would have been out the door on 9/11. In retrospect the best deal would have been to stay right where I was. G5 capt.

My 3 years at AA were great and who knows what the future will bring, but to hang around and wait for the axe to fall was not something I care to do(if given the choice). Besides if I go out early then a guy jr to me can stick around a while. PLA here I come.

I'd rather fly GVs for Coke ANY DAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!! G4G5, are you pursuing opportunities with them? If so, good luck and keep us posted.

I just got back from FSI where I had my G4 recurrent. Man did I miss that aircraft. Nothing against the MD80 but.....need I say more.

I applied to the Coke job and who knows, I meet all the requirements. As for now, if everything goes right I should have a G4 Capt job in my home town(should hear something next week), nice new G4sp. Sweet. I would rather be lucky then smart any day of the week.
