More cuts at USAirways

When mainline shrinks while the regionals grow, I think it's only reasonable for the furloughed pilots to expect those growth slots rather than letting them go to a bunch of newbies with 300 TT. And yes, they should get the left seats.

Oh I hear ya mr. PFTer & Gulfstream Airline 250hr newbie back in the day.
So with that thinking I would assume that all those Mesa Pilots that are getting there planes parked by Delta should recieve Left Seat MD80 Seats at Delta. Its only fare, they have a family to feed and bills to pay also.

Only Fare.

Negotiate a flowback. Make it worth coming back for and throw a bone in for the future of those regional pilots, like flow up.

Entitlement comes at a cost.

As a person who bought their job, you especially should know that.

That would be perfectly reasonable. I'm a big fan of flow-through agreements.

Why furlough? Don't they have 11 E190's on the way?

Especially since the pilots are flying lines of 90+ hrs a month and reserves are being flown pretty much every day on call.

thats due to the training float and increased summer flying.

....then stay on your side of the fence when the furloughs happen....

Will do Johnny! And you stop your frivilous lawsuits trying to get what you're not qualified for!

Listen....I'm not going to get into an argument of who has it better....But why do you guys always want to jump back to this side when things don't work out.....

Listen sport, nobody's gonna argue with you because your argument has been wrong from the beginning. Your group (the rjdc) tried to sue what they weren't qualified to get (a job at a major/legacy). You tried to sue for a seniority snag, and got spanked in court!
Deal with it. Stop blaming the majors and alpa for your career and life failures. Pretty funny how most people, when faced with a possibl furlough would rather do that then stay at a regional like a loser like you!

Stay there and wait for the recall, or come back here as a new hire....You can't have it both ways.....

And yet you tried. Maybe he should sue to get your job like you tried to sue to get his!

I'll stand by for your ever popular alpa bashing retort in 3.....2......1......

Another PFT legacy pilot running his trap.
By the way , 737 PFT and PFT 128 were training buddies at Gulfstream Academy. 737 PFT managed to land a job at Trans States while PFT 128 washed out and went to Pinnacle. Priceless.

Actually Marty, I managed your mom, and didn't have to pft. She got me a good nickle (literally) and helped pay for my flight training!
BTW, I hear you and uscaba are going bankrupt!:laugh:
That 3% dues must be pretty painful on that 190 pay!

Word is that both PFT 128 and 737 Pylt (aka 737 PFT) are big ALPA supporters due to the fact that without ALPA's help, they would have washed out at Pinnacle and Trans States. They owe ALPA alot. Lots of extra training was required . Do not know the exact numbers. If any one knows, I would love to know the details.
