Since the topic of leaving mid contract is up, are many of the AJX pilots(specifically American) actively applying to, mainline carriers eg AA United, Delta, FedEx, UPS?
Lately our attrition of guys going back to the US has pretty much stopped..., we do have some furloughed guys that will eventually be forced to go back but for what I see and hear they are pushing it as far as they can and there is a large group that for their age and stages of life they find themselves in (relationships, marriage, etc) are quite content to stay put.

Having said that..., they have hired several younger pilots that are for the time being enjoying themselves but I wouldn't be surprised if some years down the line some of these folks would start wondering "What if?" It's just a natural cycle in my view but to answer your question.., I don't really hear a lot of "App" talk out on the line.

Will see I guess.....!
