Skywest jumps on news
Investors research reports predicts Skywest will win a portion of the Delta bidding. "We expect SkyWest to win a good portion of this business, given its cost position and strong relationship with Delta," wrote Cathay Financial airline analyst Susan Donofrio in a research note. In addition... -
Judege OKS Comair tossing out Contract
CINCINNATI (AP) -- A federal bankruptcy judge in New York has granted a request by Delta Air Lines Inc. subsidiary Comair to throw out the regional airline's contract with its flight attendants' union So does this mean the pilot's will finally have the paycut? Or is there anything else the... -
Asked MyAsa about Freedom Gates
I was curious why Freedom needed our prime parking spots while they don't have aircraft swaps nor is there a need for parking near the spine. So I submitted MyAsa the question and here is the response... "The ATL station made the decision to gate Freedom flights on gates 21-25 due to a... -
ASA ALPA dues
I just received a letter in the mail stating I owed Alpa 140$ from 2005. I called Alpa to find out what's going on. They said ASA screwed up and were taking the wrong amout out for Alpa dues. She said ASA overcharged the pilots about 20,000$, and undercharged the Pilots by 7000$. Looks like I... -
SLC to ATL Transition
Looking at the final awards posted today, there are 75 SLC Captains moving to ATL as 700 Captains. Now, if we lose those 13 airplanes and get no 900's, that's alot of Captains and F/O's doing nothing. Something will have to give. And no I don't mean furlough's either. I call total BS on this... -

Freedom to ATL??
So I'm going out to my plane this morning and there was this hideous monster of a walkway leading up to aircraft. After questioning the rampers who put it there, I was told it was for a new aircraft that will be coming into ATL. Obviously there are no cabin stairs, hence the reason for the... -
Need another Medical Examiner in ATL
For those of you using Dr. Kaufman, they no longer allow us to use the 15$ co-pay. They said the ASA insurance company wasn't paying them the difference. Now it's 145$ for your medical. Anyone know of anyone cheaper? -
ASA in a nutshell
After reading the company's proposal, I'm trying to make light of it all. Obiviously ASA management undercut their proposal of insulting proportions. Looking at the big picture, here's what we have: 1. B.L. has 90 days to settle to contract 2. The medaitor has set a March 3rd deadline 3... -

ASA Contract Wishlist
Let's say Delta avoids Chapter 11 and turns the company around. My guess is by the time this happens, our contract should be near the end of negotiations. Here is my personal wishlist. 1. 100% Retro Pay. Maybe this would stop management's BS on future contracts. 2. "Unfronzen" Comair... -
Per Diem Tax Question
It's that time of year when we all have to calculate our tax returns. I have yet to get the same answer to this. How are you caculating your per diem on your tax return? I know there is a certain per day price in each city that's published on the FAA webiste. I've heard some guys saying it's... -
Slow Taxiing in DFW
Is it just me or does anyone else notice how slow American's Super 80's taxi in DFW? Last week ground gave me the grand tour of DFW airport and I got caught behind and AMR MD-80. Even with single engine, I rode the brakes so much the BTMS was pushing 5, and I hardly used the brakes on landing... -
Luggage Question
Ok, after 2 Travel Pro's in 2 years, and 2 cheapys prior to that, it's time to break down and get the real deal. I'm looking at the Luggageworks/Pretty Neat Stuff bags ( luggageworksonline.com ). Would anyone owning these bags choose the metal or plastic version? I know the metal is much heavier... -

Verdict is in..Telex 750 vs Bose X
Since leaving the Brasilia and going to the RJ, I decided that I didn't want to use the Bose anymore and to try a much smaller headset. The Telex 750's seem to be a popular choice from lots of RJ pilots. Therefore I decided to buy a pair and give it a try(not to mention having more space in my... -
Headsets for the CRJ
The Brasilia is no more. Luckily I have kept my hearing for the past 3 years from my Bose headsets. It's time to shift to a smaller headset for the CRJ. What do you recommend? I have seen some great deals on Ebay. How's the Telix 750? Thanks -
CFI Renewal for 121 Captains
I've been told at my airline that Captains can renew their CFI at the FSDO through our POI. My CFI expires this month, and it's like pulling teeth to get in touch someone at the FSDO to do this. As a secondary precaution, what online courses would you recommend if I have no luck through the... -
No more Brasilia's in DFW
Looks like the news just came out for the final ASA Brasilia flying in DFW. They will all be retired by Aug 1. I did notice, Skywest and CHQ will take over all TUL, LFT, OKC, and ICT flights. Yikes! Looks like the RJ lines will stay stagnant even though we will be adding 120+ Brasilia pilots... -
