Order Issuing Foreign Certificate
By Order 2015-4-16, issued on April 20, 2015, we directed all interested persons to show cause why we should not make final our tentative findings and conclusions stated in it and award certificates of public convenience and necessity to Eastern Air Lines Group, Inc. authorizing it to engage in interstate and foreign charter air transportation of persons, property and mail. Interested persons were given 5 calendar days to file objections to the order.

I guess that's progress...quiet progress.

 

[bafanguy]

Nothing about the certificate on their website. You'd think a fledgling company would be shouting this from the rooftops.

And not a peep that I've been able to find about pilot hiring. Had a friend with boatloads of 737 PIC time send in his resume but not hear anything in return.

YIP...you should apply.. Them being non Union and all.. Plus you can add to the list of strong to very strong career choices you like to wax poetic about....

na, but thank for the advice, I have a much better job right now and live in a much nicer part of the country. It is about QOL, not money.

(FWIW) Last couple of times passing through MIA, I've seen a 737 painted in Eastern colors on the Landmark ramp.

Michigan nicer than Florida? Since when?

Lived in Fla twice, take MI any day, I love the seasons, makes you appreciate good weather that we see so seldom up here.

45+ years in metro Detroit, now living in FL.....haven't missed winter (or seasons) one bit. Only time I don't wear shorts is when I travel north of the border . But Randy, I do miss some of what SE MI does have to offer!

Ah, Detroit ...

Crack houses?
Crack hos?
Trying to figure out which gang colors to wear?
Trying to figure out which bulletproof vest to wear?
Miles of abandoned buildings?
Devil's Night?
Dark nights because none of the street lights are operable?
Evenings in the ER getting your latest bullet wounds stitched?

You haven't been here in years then, Detroit is now one of hottest real estate markets in country. Housing downtown is almost impossible to find. They have a fantastic mayor and things are getting better everyday. Besides I have season tickets for MSU Football and Basketball, warbirds to fly and a Willow Run museum to build. To each his own. I love it here.

Besides with a handle of pilotyip I have to live within 3 miles of KYIP

Which large metropolitan area doesn't have that? New York, Washington, Baltimore, Boston, St. Louis, Cleveland, Atlanta, Miami, LA........

I've lived in south Florida and was bases in De-toilet for years. I'd take Michigan over Florida any day.

I'm with you. Put in nearly 13 years in Minneapolis, I'm done with "seasons".

 

[G-force]

[pilotyip]

[$$$4nothin]

Since May through September every year. Really May through February if you are a deer hunter.

You can have that frozen hole.

 

[$$$4nothin]

Always does crack me up when all the southerners tell us northerners how stupid we are to live in the snow. Then they all complain and whine and bitch when a hurricane demolishes everything they own. Guess what, that's what you get since you hate the snow so much. Enjoy.

We also hate when you retire in FL and say how nice it is up north. Oh ya ...and when you come down here and drive 35 mph in a 55 zone. I bet there are a lot more northerners in FL now than native Floridians. Gee, I wonder why that is? I bet not a lot of Floridians retire up north. You speak with forked tongue. Enjoy your yearly blizzards. I will take the occasional hurricane over shoveling snow all winter, rusted out cars from salt, and tremendous heating costs. To each it's own.

Sorry Yip, my old DO at Evergreen just took the VP Flight Ops job you were chomping at the bit for... maybe you can apply for Chief Pilot?

 

[G-force]

Futile????????????????

EAL back in business

If the new EAL is going to succeed,then gates must be secured at ATL MCO,TPA/PIE,JAX, CLT,DCA,JFK,LGA,ORD,CMH,DAY,DFW,IAD,SAT,BWI,BOS,PHL,MCI,and many other locations,otherwise,it is almost futile to keep going with this investment!!!!!!!!!!!!! :angryfire

Maybe the NEW EAL can stay in business this time if they don't pay "baggage-handlers" $72k/yr.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :laugh::laugh::laugh:

 

[bafanguy]

I've not seen any pay rates for the new EAL. I wonder if they pay FOs $72K/yr.
