Wanna fly a LCC 787 out of JFK? Norwegian Longhaul hiring JFK based pilots...

Pilots are not to blame for the misdeeds of management.
...and a career flying A320's sounds ok to me

"Don't kid yourself: US Airways and JetBlue are not in the same league of 'major' as Delta or American."

US Airways is American form here going forth. Point I was trying to make is that nothing is for sure in this industry. Again just funny to me that a Spirit guy is taking shots at GoJet for something that happened long ago. You go enjoy that A320 for the rest of your career.

I am sure your "major" is amazing to work for, but I am simply stating that we do not hire Gojets pilots at Spirit. I know this because I see the list of who was hired and the background airlines they worked for. If you want to PM me any names of Gojet pilots that slipped through the cracks and are working here at Spirit currently I would be happy to have that information due to the fact they either lied or hid the GoJets name on their resume'. That is grounds for termination. We had one that tried to list "TSA Holdings" on the resume', but that was quickly fixed.

I don't get what you find funny. I'm guessing you're an Airways guy. Congratulations on making it to the big leagues!

I have personally flown with FO's that have worked at GoJets prior to Spirit. I'm not trying to argue this, but to say there are no pilots at NK who previously worked at GoJets is false.

PM me names then, we will fix the "glitch"

boomird did your wife leave you for a GoJet pilot? Why so much hate?

No, I'd rather not. And one isn't even on probation anymore and is actually a good dude. Hired at G7 as a street captain.

If you're involved in NK pilot hiring, I'm sure you weren't interviewing the day these guys went through. Either way, I'm no fan of G7 and neither are the guys I met who flew there.

Just another word of caution for young or not so young people, this NAI job might be a very good one despite what crewmeel says. First off, if your flying for a regional without a degree or other extraneous BS, this company probably won't care. They'll probably consider experience to be much more necessary. Second, there was another airline that dodged ALPA and some consider that to be scab-lite at least, Southwest. ALPA would love to have that revenue now. Finally, I suspect many of you don't owe ALPA anything, go get the best job you can find.

No hate, it's simple business. We don't hire Gojets pilots, you know why, everyone else knows why, I am not going to re-tell the old story. It's a matter of ethics and our belief on the level of credibility a pilot brings to our airline. Someone with no thought of how that airline might affect your future worries some of us that he has no regard for his fellow pilots and only thinks about today, not tomorrow.

 

[maru657]

Wow, that was some elegant BS. I suggest that anyone who's worked at GO-Jet consider boom birds message. Now, he got his job the right way. His experience paid for with your tax dollars. Too bad he has no clue about airlines and labor, because I'm sure any ex-Go Jet pilot will respect and honor any labor action on his part.

As I've told you. You're wrong on this. So stop spouting this nonsense.

Hold on, when Spirit does a background check before hiring a pilot, wouldn't they uncover the information themselves?

Back to the point of this blog, Lee Moak is stepping down to be replaced by some other Delta bozo. But he fought hard to prevent Noriegn Air from operating through New York. It might have impacted apron his ability to make money. Of course the guys who need and are willing to take a job with Noriegn Air may be out of luck. Too bad they didn't have a bunch of squadron buddies able to get them a job with Delta. Well, maybe Moak and his pals will strike someday, then some jobs will open up.

Where did you fly the E-170... Because I know alot of Comair people who were rear-ended in 2003/4 when a certain company accepted a really CHQty contract and undercut all the hard work the strike was able to accomplish.....

Enjoy Spirit

So are you saying that you would then try and fire current NK ALPA line pilots who were ex-GoJets? How? And on what basis?

Grow up.
