Kangaroo, I DON'T think you get it. I suggest you reread my post again. I know several people who either have worked or are still at PJ, and I don't envy them one bit.
The way I look at it is that if a company like PJ went under other companies who actually know how to run a proper operation would feel enticed to enter the market, grow and as an effect hire pilots. Including those coming from PJ.
I understand it would be hard to give up on the hopes of retaining what's rightfully yours, but wouldn't you think that would have happened by now if there was any chance of it? Repeatedly in this thread it has been mentioned how the crooks behind PJ have gotten away from doing right, despite court orders to pay their employees and so on. What makes you think that will all of a sudden change?
Trust me, I'm not trying to rob the PJ pilots of anything. That is being done enough by their "own" people.
