Can someone loan me $3.00

I've got 39 cents but I'll need it back on Friday.

I can pay you back in little mini's, I know where I can find a few!!

Wynn has done wonders in the short time he has been here. I predict this will be THE 135 op to work at by next year. I thing the changes will be as dramatic as pre union NetJets and post union.

DUDE, Put the bong down! How many Chief Pilots and Line Pilots have left in the last 9 months?

That was before Wynn/Jetride was involved. I don't think Pinnacle was anything special before, but with the attitude that the group has as a whole, and the management that JR has brought in, being optimistic about our future is certainly warrented.

downwind dont get carried away . i don't think the changes will be that dramatic now.

First, the remote airplanes are not going away. Some will be based but our client list requires us to maintain some remotes.

Pay is going up. The differences between JR and PCL will be eliminated. If your counterpart makes more you will go up in salary. Nobody will go backwards.

Jetride will be buying airplanes about as fast as we can get them. We are increasing the number of large airframes.

Per diem will remain the old PCL way. IT works.

Just talked with management.
Asked why we're not seeing this long bragged about growth.
He said the first order of business is to align the two certificates to make them mirror images each other. Then we'll start to buy planes, so don't expect to see new planes until spring.
We are in the process of trying to put a managed 604 on but it doesn't look like it's gonna happen because the owner needs it up and running in three weeks and we just can't do it. The challengers were just removed from the JR certificate and our pilots are no longer qualified, (the ones that are left).

OK, This will be my last post!!
I'm gonna pay the $3 and switch so leave me alone!!

Why are we washing our dirty laundry on this PUBLIC FORUM ?
Would it not make better sence for us to express our views on our own forum and keep everything inhouse?

Why waste money too? Its a waste of time to work there. The solution however is simple: Citationshares, Netjets or 121.

JetRide happens to be a very good company to work for. Not everyone thinks 121 is all that its made out to be, and the fractionals are a good option, but I know of many pilots that don't want to be gone for a week straight. JetRide has a good management team, and they have shown a grat deal of respect for the pilot group. The pay may not top out at what NJ or citationshares does, but its not like we are paid slave wages either.

Been there, done that, bought the t-shirt!!!

HAVE-AT-IT HOSS!!!!!

Been furloughed from the airlines, and told NetJets to take their $28k to start and go pound sand after they offered me a job!!

 

[AirplanesSuck]

Wow, I had no idea it was that simple! If only I had pilot-savants like Ritz a few years ago, I would never have gotten myself into this HORRIBLE situation!

And it will never be...

Money isn't everything. My question is why do you care? If people are happy with their situation then who are you to ridicule them? I mean, hoenstly, I'm happy that you are pleased with your choices and hopefully they work out for you. Why do you have a problem my choices? Its not your life, you don't know my reasons for staying at Jetride, what business is it of yours? I have many good friends at all the fractionals and some at the majors, all of whom would give me a reccomendation, but I have decided that for the time being Jetride is a good place for me. Anyway, sorry you have a problem with my company, but in the end it really doesn't matter what you think, does it?
