Explains why Regional pilots are flying the same sized planes that mainline used to fly. 'Throw me a few extra dollars and you can do whatever you want'.
At least we now know who waves man love is. :blush:
 
Great comeback Scoot. I knew I could count on you for your excellent debating skills. You make the General look good with your witty comments!
Red:
Why don't you troll the regional boards, and tell them all how bad they suck, and how much better SW is than them. It's kinda played out here on every DL thread, and I find you and your boyfriend waveflyer to be quite annoying!
 
Seriously Red.....you and wave need to get a room.

Head over to the Warrior Cave and circle jerk each other about how you guys are the model saviors of the industry.

The only problem is that neither one wants to be the Alpha male in the relationship. They would rather receive than give.

You mean like DALPA does everytime RA comes calling?

Get ready for the 100 seaters next time guys. They are a little bit bigger as well...and hopefully RA will bring some lube (ie...payraises again) Haha!

Actually, the General is the regional troll. He just can't stay away, but lately debates better than both Scoot and Bill L. Go figure.


I'm done. You guys enjoy your larger RJs and I hope you can decrease them over time (for everyone's sake). In the meantime, we'll keep them off our property completely.

Super......Can't debate Stupid.....
 
Nicely done guys. Each of you trying to childishly (and homophobically) one-upping the last.
Have you looked at this last page?

I am critiquing DALPA. And I know that's hard to hear, bc im doing it relentlessly. But I am not making it personal and calling anyone names- I'm calling the collective out- I am giving you rational reasons and defining the term 'sellout' (you get to vote on decisions that affect OTHER pilots who have to fly in a falsely more competitive WHIPSAW market)

Sorry, but 50 seaters were going away regardless. To "trade" those for -900's was remarkably ignorant. You reloaded the whipsaw market with a sustainable airplane just as very real economic pressures made the -200's a liability. So it's been said.
Apparently, one gets a more bitter perspective when they're the one's who have been furloughed and seen their job replaced by one of these things- when the choice becomes: fly an RJ or get out of flying

So spool up all you like scoot, dalad, bill- say all the crazy things you want- there are thousands of pilots just like me that were sold out by those left on the property at a legacy. I focus on delta because you guys tend to lead on this- the bottom line is you help make a group of second class pilots, not on your seniority list, whipsawed against each other, who have no vote on outsourcing, but who also fly a MAJORITY of your domestic flights.

That's your legacy. More than just me ought to be speaking up against it.
 
Wave,

You aren't looking at the three way trade. Dump 140 50 seaters, add 70 76 seaters, and then add 88 717s. The 717s are tied to the 76 seaters, if they don't arrive at mainline, then the 76 seaters don't go to DCI. Then throw the 70 and 76 seaters on the outgoing 50 seater current routes, and then you have mainline recapturing DCI routes, which is GREAT. You always leave that part out, convienently. That is your problem. Mainline gets routes back, at higher rates, and will have to hire by next year most likely. That is good.



Bye Bye---General Lee
