    Question for 747, or other long range pilots

    They'll be safer in the cargo hold than they will in China.

    ASA new hire pay cut......

    They're not. It's your inane posts I find confusing.

    ASA new hire pay cut......

    ASA new hire pay cut......

    Actually, you're wrong. If you think there aren't people lining up at the door to fly an airliner regardless of whatever new hire pay happens to be, you're kidding yourself. If you want pay rates to come up it has to come from within, not from expecting new comers to take a stand for the industry.

    ASA new hire pay cut......

    What exactly would you expect someone swimming in the pool to do about the company's proposal? You're on the seniority list, it's incumbent on you and the other pilots already on the seniority list to do something about it.

    Latest SWA interview Intel

    I interviewed at a legacy carrier in '01 and they specifically asked me not to post my experience on the internet, or pass any info along to the woman who did interview preps for that carrier. They felt it was compromising the process. If you're going to post something, I would do it...

    enough!

    When I first clicked on this link it was more out of morbid curiosity than anything else, and I expected to see some uber-dork prancing around in an oxygen mask while he sodomized himself with the crash axe. Not that there's anything wrong with that as long as you're above 10K. After watching...

    Best way to get to Atlas / Polar

    I wouldn't put ANY non-skeds on that list, unless you don't mind living in hotels and the back of the airplane. Some guys love it, some hate it. I subscribe to the latter.

    Atlas Air Interview

    You can jumpseat...keep in mind if you're going on an offline carrier you can only ride if there's a seat in back. Jumpseating to Europe in the summertime can be very difficult. By paying your own way...if you arrive into AMS at 2pm all the flights have left for the states so you can...

    Atlas Air Interview

    In a nutshell: Work rules- they own you for 21 days a month Bases- You'll be based in Stansted, England and commute on your own time and money Pay- better than a lot of what's out there right now Make sure it's what you want...Atlas is a lifestyle not a job

    Atlas In Stn

    I'm not sure who is doing your taxes but you may want to consider faking your own death and gettting extensive plastic surgery. If you don't reside in the US for 300 some odd days out of the year (can't remember the exact number) your first 80K is tax free, after that uncle sam gets his cut.

    Atlas In Stn

    Schedule out of Stansted is...ah...punitive is a good word I think (if you're commuting). You'll get zero cost of living adjustment for staying there so enjoy your $25 hamburger, it's worth every penny.

    Jalways, Air japan, NCA.....

    If you have the physiology of an Olympian Triathelete and pass the medical, plan to spend at least a week on the clock during groundschool at JAL. I know your initial response is "a week to learn how to use the clock is totally inadequate", but you'll be suprised how quickly you absorb...

    Skip Barnette gone?? (ASA)

    I think they should make jehtplane the new CEO, he's management material.

    Atlas interview - HELP!!!

    You're on 17 days which gives you 13 or 14 days off depending. The company can (and will) take 4 of those at least 50% of the time. Factor in an on-your-own commute to Europe and you'll be home for about 8 days. The kind of lifestyle you'll have at Atlas is not for everybody. Pay, hotels...

    Atlas interview - HELP!!!

    Flying the 74 is great, but it turns into just another airplane after a few hundred hours and you're left trying to squeeze your entire personal life into the 8 days you have at home every month. There ARE a lot of good things about Atlas/Polar, schedule is not one of them. Make sure you can...

    ASA pilots top 10 list

    You might want to reconsider this one from your deeply thought out little list. There's no point in screwing an innocent pax just because the company is screwing you.
