GoJet has never been allowed on a Mesaba jumpseat. There was some talk about letting them on and the MEC took a stand and voted NO!!

If you're going to play grammar Nazi, you better make sure you get it right yourself!
 
In my new hire class we had a GOJets pilot, he said in his intro he worked for Trans States!! We all saw his old crew tag on his bag!! and it did'nt say TSA airlines!!
 
The jump seat is a privilege, not a right.

It is a privilege negotiated between two pilot groups/unions to allow one pilot to "jump seat" on another carrier for the purpose of getting back/forth to work.

If a pilot chooses to take up employment with a carrier that has no jump seat agreement with other carriers, so be it. Use to be that when a company was advertising for pilots, they would list proudly that they had jump seat agreements with x amount of airlines...

I welcome the fact that there are still pilot groups keeping up the battle. Thankyou all~

Maybe this is why they do not feel the need to exercise proper jumpseat etiquette and stop by the front office and ask permission to ride and show credentials. Twice last month these guys darted by the flight deck straight to their seats and never even said hello. The second time it happened the flight attendant politely asked him to come up front and see us. When he did, in a very non-confrontational way we explained that it was company policy to check the credentials of any jumpseater and it was also a common courtesy to stop by and say a quick hello to the crew. This individual acted like he knew nothing about this, all new to him, he also admitted to flying on our carrier several times before. Interesting, I even gave him the benefit of the doubt by assuming he was new and just learning the ropes. Wrong! after a check of his ID he had been there 9 months! I jumpseat on Skywest and Trans States occasionally and I always introduce myself to the FA and ask permission to see the crew. I always have ID, Medical, License in hand and ask permission to ride along. The last thing I want to do is make the pilot group I represent look bad because as it has already been stated on this thread, jumpseating in a privilege, not a right. I hope this helps anyone who might be confused on how jumpseating works.

A lot of the times when you jumpseat on the majors they don't really care about this. The latestet one, the CA waved me back to the cabin because he was too busy eating and listending to his Ipod to shake my hand. I find it that it's mostly a regional CA thing. Still you should go up to the CA and FO and introduce yourself.

WTF!!!!!!!! when you jumpseat you become a member of the crew. You must introduce yourself to the crew. I would have chewed him out, thrown his punk ass off the plane after I got the phone number for his jumpseat/pro stans chairmen at his "union" The privelage of a free ride is in exchange for adding another level of safety to the flight. The Sioux City crash is a prime example.

It doesn't matter if it's a 1900 or a 747. Do the right thing, have your Company ID, Medical, Pilot Cert all out before the Captain has to ask for it.

This is yet another example of GO Jet's "Pilots" who have no respect for the profession.
