Pilots only please
I worked at NJ for a little while and left as soon as I could like everyone else I 'm sure.
The main reason (other than feeling like a made and being paid less than any limo driver) was the safety issue.
Yes the planes are nice but that is a given in any co.

Some people are assuming the inevitable demise of AA in north TX if Love opens up to national markets. I believe that when it comes to complex entities such as major airlines the outcome is impossible to calculate. US airways is a prime example of that: I remember the expert giving us the date...

Out of EWR - International
My manual and CO print out both agree on International Jumpseat but the gate agent didn't give me a chance and they all seemed to agree. (went to different gates). Finally talked to a 76 captain that put me through the CP office (more than I was asking for). The CP...
Here are a few facts:
The airline industry is directly impacted by the cost of fuel (1ct raise/ gallon translates in tens of million lost; 11 million/year/1ct for my outfit)
National reserves are being fill up when oil prices are the highest and at a point that hurts this industry the most...

That's just a low offer and I don't think anybody is expecting you to take it. (Except your MEC>>>??$$??)
The main problem at NJ is that they don't have training cost but training income.
It's more advantageous to train a new CFI than to pay a senior captain for the...
Do you have the capability to bank time in your company. (I know AA does)
If yes, is there a published data showing a decrease in sick leaves before and after the implementation of the program.
Thanks for your help.
I worked for Netjets for 18 months, 6 months short of the 2 year end of the training contract.
I was lucky to move to a better place but I am still paying the remaining of 1/2 of $16000.
I would like to see different point of view about the validity of this contract; keeping in mind that during...
A good friend of mine has 930 hours PIC turbine on Dash8. He needs about 100 more. Today he is on furlough.
Is there any way to fly a B90, 100, 200, or any other turbine plane part time and without financial considerations in the Boston area?
Thanks for the input.

There is one thing that would be required from the crew and that is a maximum of 10 hours duty by the end of the trip.
Most guys are on the road 6 to 7 days at a time with a rest requirement of 10 hours/day and no schedule (that's the hard part). That means that you have to eat, sleep, shower...
What kind of schedule/travel sould i expect if i commute from MHT to OAK?
What is the situation in regard of crash pads?
Do you need to have a car in OAK?
That's it, thanks for the info.
1 year in the pool, i feel the need to practice the pax brief. In the SWA spirit that is. Don't want to be outclassed by the hilarious FAs.
What is the funniest brief you can come up with?
Visited BWI 2 months ago. Not crazy about the town :(. What area would you recommend?
2) How about OAK, is there anything affordable within 30-40 minutes from the airport? :confused:
Thanks for your help
Happy to be swimming. In 10 years we won't remember the tough times. If we do, it will be with pride, an other cockpit story. You'll tell your FO how easy he/she had it compared to you. You'll tell your kids about adversity. You'll tell your spouse how amazing she/he is; your broker to sell...
Hello everyone.
Just wondering what a typical day looks like on the line. i.e: number of leg, duty time.
Do you have a lot of days above 10 hours of duty?
thanks for taking the time to answer and for making my favorite airline safe .;)
