Northwest recalls hundred of pilots

[Cobraair75drvr]

ASSINELLI,

What airline do you work for, if you do? Do you not have duty time limitations? Maybe your part 91. Anyway, if this happened they were just following the contract/fars. They don't have control over when they report, the company sets the time, they show and the clock starts. If there are delays due to late inbound, mx, whatever it does not matter. The duty time has started. Why is this so hard for you to understand? Are you challanged or just an ***********************************? Again, others have asked who you work for and in what capacity and you have avoided the question. Why don't you tell us, are you ashamed?

K Fed is hardly dead. He is still married to Brittney Spears and has recently released a pretty good CD. I admire him because usually women take us for all our money. K Fed is evening the score by muching off Brittney. Gotta love it!

Looks like you know as much about Hollywood relationships as you do about the aviation industry.

Brit is done with your boy, his "music" sux, and he won't get jack in the divorce.

Assinelli. The company sets the report time and the clock starts period. You have no control or choice.And if you go to an alternate and can't continue within your duty period you are also done.

757 jackass. Once you upgrade to the A330 or the 747 and do some Intl. Flying with longer block times you'll see how easy it is to make the crew run out of time -- especially in the case of a diversion. Of course each such event costs the company money in addition to screwing passengers. Idiotic actions like these cost the company money and goodwill and give the whole pilot group a bad name.

Bullsh!t, I hope he sticks it to her and gets half. That is if they call it quits. If they do call it quits, he deserves half of there wealth. K Fed is worth it.

His music does not suck though. The guy has some talent.

Yes and I suppose if you just have a 30 minute pad for your duty period to go illegal -- you can't ask for a fuel uplift and then do a work to rule in order to walk away from the flight. Or ask for the Potable Water to be topped off or some other idiotic crap (oh wait you guys refer to it as innovation).

Yeah, great news. For bottom-feeders.

There's always somebody, somewhere willing to do more for less.

Why don't you be happy for guys with vested interest and seniority, and families to feed, that thier being recalled?

It must suck to be you... kill yourself.

Accinelli, Your way off buddy.About the only thing that could slow you up would be a mechanical and usually that would be called in before you land at said alternate.Everything else is pretty much handled for us. Not like after a 13 hr leg you would have that much time to play with anyway.

If anyone recalled actually wants to go back, great for them. The problem is too many knuckleheads with Shiny Jet Syndrome thinking it's a step up to work for Frankensteenland for peanuts when furloughed Red Tails bypass their recall and NWA has to start hiring off the street.

BTW, I have a greater vested interest in NWA than you could possibly fathom. I have watched my (decidedly) better half devote 10 years (including a strike and a proud NO vote on the POS TA) to Northwest only to see horrible management decisions destroy a once-proud airline.

This is not about furloughed pilots and their recall to the line. It is about bottom feeders like instructordude who are giddy at the prospect of mainline hiring (at slave wages) because the furloughed people are blowing off recall because they found something better. People like him denigrate the profession and speed the race to the bottom.

Just a minor correction, furloughed guys are not red tails, we are Blue! WE didn't sell any one out! Plz continue!
