Funny, but don't think most that are 61 will have too much to worry about. Even with those LOA 93 rates the west keeps trying to throw in the east faces, most of the guys are fairly well off somehow. Sure there's a few that aren't, but most I've talked to could hang it up now w/o a problem. But the paycheck is still pretty good for what they do. Hmmmm....how can that be so??? Oh yeah, the east is at it's lowest levels ever, while the west is at their HIGHEST levels ever, and uhmm...there isn't THAT big of a seperation between pay. Sure there is a chunk there, but looking back over their careers, they have definately made more than the the average West guy, and the past 5 years is definately not indicitive of what they pay was or potential earnings....

So I'd like to hear what the westie would sound like interviewing for that job.

Mannn...I had that there lottery ticket. I'm telling you, those old geezers thougt they knew everything. Heck, they been around so long they''ve forgotten more things thant what I even thought of thinking of. But you see here, I'm young, I'm smarter, ya that's right, and I have a birth right to be given what I want. You see my company was inherently better off because I gave them the graciousnous to work for them. They were superstars 'cause I am a superstar. You see, you hire me, and your company will became great, money rolling in everywhere. Ya Ya, those old guys, nahhhh they ain't got no experience worth nothing. You hire me and all your troubles will be taken care of......

When you !diots are finished running the new US Airways into the ground what are you going to do? I doubt an uneducated moron such as yourself is going to find work outside aviation.

Us running US into the ground. HELLLLOOOOO have you opened your eyes???

since the Tempe Frat club has gottten ahold of this place, US service on the East coast is a joke. The mojority of the Frequent flyers have fled to Delta and CO. Or at least the majority that actualy get the status awards via butt in the seat flying. Go look on the FF web boards. US sucks for the FF.

The terminals used to be filled with suits and ties. Suits and ties generally mean last minute biz fares etc etc. I used to have a handful of our customers which I became aquainted with out of my home airport. They were flying about as much as I was, commuting on reserve. They have since moved to Delta, as delta is taking care of them.

We fly airplanes. the latest score is I believe a pair of pilots saved this airlines bacon. That's our job, nothing more or less. As long as we don't bend any metal neither of us will run this place in the ground. THAT objective is the frat boys in tempe....So watch where the idoits are...

You got that right.

I'm sure most of the Mesa...errr...westie FO's with major airline experience that you could count on one hand could have done a better job, just ask em!

I won't even go into the BUF accident and the experience level in that cockpit.
 
Here I thought they were ordering or talking about a drink. Silly me!!!
My sixth grader doesn't act like this, geez. Maybe they should drink cat p**s.

Does anyone from the much-ballyhooed USAirways really want to discuss accident histories?

From the info below, it appears that US Airways or it's predecessors has wrecked or destroyed virtually every model type aircraft they have ever operated with the exception of the B757 and A330, 319 and 321. And maybe a Stinson.

I just want to clarify my comments, as I said a pair of pilots saved this airlines bacon. yes, we all know what side that pair is from, but my intention was not to classify that incident as being only successful due to east pilots flying that trip.

As anyone will attest to, there could have been a more experienced crew on there and not had the same outcome. It could have been another airline and had the same outcome, Fate was at play a bit there. Both sides have experienced crews, both sides have crews that have something left to desire.

So bottom line, I was trying to point out that the PILOTS, both sides, doing their jobs keep this airline out of trouble regarding that. The running of the airline into the ground, is a management quality.
 
Hello!!

How many pax have AWA pilots killed in the last 3 decades? How about US Air?

looks like you've finally got it figured out Crzi....

Now shouldn't you be drinking a PBR and crying over your lost pension? Or maybe you have a gun fight with an old man over a property line to attend to? I'm sure there's a cockpit somewhere that needs a hole shot through it, or else you could go bury a 737 in the mud while trying to beat those westies to the gate...
