    Thanks AirTran

    Okay, okay. I'll be nice. I keep forgetting how so many got hurt so badly by the few. My apologies to all.

    Thanks AirTran

    The interview? Let's look at this from another aspect. Will I be gracious to a native who comes on board for the js? I'll be polite and professional, but I will be making sure he/she understands that APA/AMR cost me $3.5M. I'm gonna have to work at Wal-Mart until I'm 80 to afford retirement...

    Thanks AirTran

    I'll think about it... naw, I'll just do what I have to do!

    Thanks AirTran

    When I move to the left seat... again... I won't refuse a native the JS unless he/she is not doing the necessary "dance", you know, proper paperwork, the intro, hand shake, wearing the right stuff, etc., but I WILL use it as an opportunity to rail the treatment that APA/AMR shoved up our AA$$es...

    Latest AA rumors....

    Hum, not surprizing that AMR wants to continue the shrinkage. Good way to get rid of the TWA guys and to boost share value and pad bonus potential. Also positions them for a merger and have a field day with the rank and file.

    US Airlines will go the way of the Shipping Industry

    Sounds like Bisinani is calling for world wide cabotage.

    Thanks AirTran

    While it is always a good thing to have an additional professional crew member on the aircraft, i.e., jumpseater, every captain I fly with looks over to me when an AA guy asks for the JS. My stock reply is that its his JS, but I would prefer that I get my left seat back at AA before I give the...

    The Truth about what AA did to TWA F/A's

    Ultrarunner: AA came and "bought" TWA because UAL was in the process of buying USAir and AMR didn't want UAL to get too big or at least bigger than AA, you know, the Johnson size factor. TWA was a deal. It was after all the news and commitments were made that AMR had TWA go into a Chap. 11 to...

    Dump Duane Worth ALPA

    I think his next term will be 10 to 20 at Leavenworth federal penitentiary. His new wife will be called Rasheed and he will have his new husband, Duane, be the camel!

    AA Mentor Program

    dc10freak In 1973 I wanted to be an AA pilot. I got my FE ticket on the 707-351 at the academy. They wouldn't hire me. Fast forward to 2001. AA buys TWA, whom I worked for as a captain. They, AMR/ALPA/APA, screw the TWA employee's. 2006, unless you are under the age of 25, you don't stand...

    The Truth about what AA did to TWA F/A's

    MQAAord: Sorry, didn't know your connections to the TWA family. Sorry too for the BOHICA you got from APFA and AMR. It is true that we pilots get date of hire for company benefits, but for pay and bidding, seniority is actuated on the date of passing the final check ride. Best regrads, RIK717.

    Of course there is F.U.B.A.R and F.I.G.M.O. as well as B.O.H.I.C.A., which is what AA did to TWA!

    AIR Inc., Airtran and training-general questions

    At one time I was Captain JetJobs for Kit at FAPA. I was one of his first employees at AIR, Inc. and it is worth the cost and time if you are new to the airline business to attend his seminar. Pay attention to the presentations in the seminar, it will prevent you from shooting yourself in the...

    The Truth about what AA did to TWA F/A's

    MQAAord: At least you weren't lied to by Carty, ALPA and APA about what was coming your way. Pilots don't get their date of hire until they graduate either, unless you got stapled by the APA. Get over it, you were a new hire.
