Wait til WJ actually looks at the volume of flying SWG was doing in the East, and then deplores the lack of pilots in the East to counter weather-related IROPS. The idiots who agreed to a full reduction bid without seeing 1 winter's worth of flying fully integrated first are gonna look real smart to...

I haven’t heard any 400 new hire talk Apparently that's what was told to current transition class. Correct, I am in that class and heard it. AVH and DP also came for a visit on day 3 and AVH joked that it looked like we'd be receiving a new jet every 2 weeks in fall 2026, making DP a little nervous.

Last year it was established in the US that it’s allowable to tip politicians and judges as thanks ...

Yes the beginner LLMs are still quite rough on the edges, but their potential is there to make millions of sub 85 IQ people unemployable.

Yup, Flight Decks are definitely back to being Cockpits.
