That Delta guy will probably kick himself in a year or two when he realizes what he did. Multiple leg days with 25 min turns in a 737 is not for everyone. If you like it, great. Not everyone would. Get over yourself. Some people don't want to do what you do. And stop thinking your poop doesn't stink. A lot of you guys are so cocky. Yippy, you fly for Southwest!


Bye Bye--General Lee

The Delta Guy has been here 3 years.

You are the one making this an issue. Were not throwing anything in anyones face. We like what we do. We like the company we work for. Why do you have to try and prove otherwise? Your right. Its not for everyone. But its for most people.

The sad thing General is your obviously envious of all the talk and attention our company gets. And you are ignoring, in part, that you don't have it bad at Delta.

I added up the last three months of flying and I averaged 3.4 legs a day. So please stop the 6 legs a day every day mantra. We do have days that have six legs. We have a couple that fly 7 or 8 legs in a day. But we have more that fly 1 or 2. In 13 years I have never flown more than 6 legs. In the past 5 years or so I can only remember flying 3 or 4 days of 6 legs. And they weren't that bad. You don't live this life and you don't have any experience flying our lines so stop trying to say otherwise. Hiding behind your mask does not change your character.

not to mention 3 day trips that pay 25 vs 4 day trips that pay 18

 

[Heavy Set]

not to mention 3 day trips that pay 25 vs 4 day trips that pay 18

Then add two days to recover.

 

[Whataburger]

3day trips that pay 25TFP will be followed by 4 days off. Two nights gone a week.

Hey Heavy Set didnt you want to work at FlexJet? Like you would pass up the opprotunity to fly at SWA. I did a three day that paid 24.5. Some of the easiest work I have done and I didnt even see LBB. It sure was hard to recover from. It was one 4 leg day followed by two 3 leg days. Ouch that hurt. I better see if I can ELITT that away next time.

I used to work for Tower Air as a 747FO, flying out of JFK to TLV, CDG, and some MIA and SJU. It was fun while it lasted. Now I manage and fly a Lear-45 for a rich owner down here in Boca. It is a great life, and I am paid well to manage the operation and fly. I know a lot of Delta pilots from my crashpad days in JFK (while they were at DL), and I still talk to some of them frequently. I don't plan on leaving my current job since I am home often and when I do go on the road it is all first class thanks to the owner. I make 6 figures and I enjoy flying again. Don't tell me I don't know what I am talking about, since I have been in this industry probably a lot longer than you. You sound like a snot nosed brat.

Don't you see the hypocrisy of your statement here??!! YOU JUST TOLD Victor that HE needs two extra days to sleep off his trip, when HE'S the one who works here, NOT YOU!

I guess you moron. If you think 17 years in the business is just getting started. I had you current job (one just like it) it was fun while it lasted. I have flown just about every aspect of civilian flying there is. So I guess I am wet behind the ears. Not as experienced as you, you god like 747 driver ooooooooooo. I am in aw. Just answer the question or is that to hard for your experience level Mr 747 driver god ooooo ah. I glad you didnt get on with flexjet they dont need anymore idiots like you. I am most impressed with your wonderful 6 figure salary ooooo ah. Man you must be the best pilot Mr 747 driver. What a clown!!!

So, all of my Southwest pilot friends are lying? How do you know I don't know anyone there?

What a complete idiot. And I am very happy I don't work for Flexjet, I have heard nothing but bad things about that shabby fractional. If I were going to one, I would pick Netjets. Instead, I have a great job making a mint and assigning schedules to our group of pilots while picking the cherry trips. I, like the General, get to avoid LBB, unlike you, you freak. Great, you fly an orange corndog. Wow, you are important. Nice leather jacket you dork.

 

[vixin]

Didnt get hired you loser! You are one pathetic little boy. You couldnt get enough info about Flexjet when you needed a job. Its not a bad place to work actually. You would pick NJ. Sorry bud they dont hire a55wipes like you there either. Get a life mr 747 wippy do driver. Like I tell little General I have seen LBB once. Oh heavens what am I gonna do. Enjoy your fat cat in the limo, been there done that. Typical a55wipe taking good trips from the guys that deserve them most. Heres a hint moron. Give the cherry trips to the line pilots and give them a break. Earn that whopping 6 figure salary you brag so highly about. You do know you arent supposed to count the zeros after the decimal point. You must be a joy to fly with with that huge head of yours, but after all you flew a 747 man you are awesome.

 

[K-Mart]

It's ok if you are jealous. I understand you love your company but hate to go to work because you finish each trip exhausted. ]

Dude I know some Delta guys that fly international. Talk about exhausted.

Do "all of your Southwest friends" know how you feel about them, their airplanes, and their jackets?

All I'm saying is that you wouldn't like it if I said that I know plenty of corporate pilots, who make six figures, who hate their jobs. (Which I do.) Therefore, by default, YOU must hate YOUR job. Sounds rediculous, right? That's because it is. It's equally rediculous for you to tell a Southwest pilot how HE feels about HIS job, regardless of how many friends you have there.

 

[GuppyWN]

I made over 150k last year as an FO. I'll fly to LBB every day for that kind of coin.
