On page 26, I see forward looking aircraft orders. Is there a fleet count for the past several years. (I'm working from a phone, because I'm watching the kids for the day).
5 years ago, the order sheet looked impressive too. Then we pushed deliveries and started selling airframes as fast as we were taking them. I guess I'm a bit jaded and expect more of the same. That order sheet looks fantastic, but I don't expect the fleet to grow by the numbers on that order sheet. I expect the 40 NEO's will replace 40 old buses, I would also expect most of the 321's to replace older buses.
10 years from now I hope it is as rosy as you think. Recent history makes me think it wont be.
Hey, I never said anything was rosy. Just don't like dishonesty if intentional. I agree with your post V.
Beware of these type of "when I was hired it was this way" and you can expect the same or close to treatment posts.Spending 24 nights a month in Kew Gardens on reserve: This is COMPLETE, TOTAL, AND UTTER BULL$HIT. You will spend 24 nights in Kew Gardens only in the summer months if you are complete fcking idiot and have no idea how to work the system, never call in sick, never burn any PTO or UTO, and generally hate yourself. Here is reality: I'm on reserve this month, I've picked up 1 trip, and I'm getting lots of long call because of how I land my days and work my schedule. I am a stupid fcking moron. If I can do it, anyone can. I can't wait till next month. After Labor Day, I REALLY won't be doing anything. Last year, I flew maybe 1 or 2 trips a month in Sep/Oct. I had to beg the CP for flying so I could finish consolidation. I went 2 solid months in Jan and Feb without TOUCHING AN AIRPLANE. That's right, I DID NOT FLY FOR TWO MONTHS. During that time, I spent an average of 4 to 5 nights a month in Kew. That's right, I did a two leg offline commute to reserve, and I had a better QOL than most lineholders.
Understandable.
You and I are pretty much the same. We are both pro union, and we both know that improvements are needed at B6.
We also hate hearing whiny little turds that are pulling down $200K plus a year talk about this place like they're sewing together Reeboks in a Vienamese sweatshop.
All those guys can blow me.
JFK Bus FO is has always been the fattest staffed seat in the company. When I came here, I lived CapnVegetto's reserve life. All I can say... it takes about 3 years before you "see the man behind the curtain".
BUT, stop pretending there is no man behind the curtain at every other corporation in America.
Smarta$$... I stand corrected. We are growing. That is great news. Thank you for helping me see the light.

Since you don't know what you're talking about, perhaps you should consider
not posting anything.
Our fleet is growing. We haven't returned hardly anything for some time now. We are growing and you know it.
