Would someone settle a discussion? Are there a large amount of Midwest pilots that lost their jobs in the Republic/Frontier/Midwest "merger"? If so, are they flying?
Anyone read Joseph Balzer's book? He was the FE on the NWA B727 from FAR-MSP...book title says it all. Great read. Joseph, if by chance this reaches you, my hat is off to you. Best of luck with the rest of your career at AA. I read your book cover to cover on a 24 hr AUA layover, couldn't...
Newsday: What would you do to un-crowd the skies over New York?
General Lee (Bob Crandall): We don't have an adequate air-traffic control system, and we don't have enough runways at Kennedy and LaGuardia. If I were in charge, I'd say we're not going to let the low-cost airlines fly into the...
02-05-07...LGA-MSP, Northwest, had to be 80 to 100 seats open. Two of us going home, Captain denied one of us because one of us didn't have an ALPA card. I am amazed this crap is still going on.
Tonight I was denied the jumpseat on an NWA 757, 1/2 full, last flight of the night, because of where I am employeed. Because of this and recent events, and the disrespect towards my fellow employees displayed over the last 15-18 months...many of whom are furloughed from an ALPA carrier, some...
I won't post the email, but this week some of our guys are being naughty. Fellas, I can understand but it will hurt more than it helps (though we did get someone's attention). If this keeps up ultimately the jumpseat will be taken away and none of us will get to use it. Once again, let's not...
Father-in-law retires at NWA in a week or so. Mother-in-law said they don't hose the airplane down anymore...too expensive. I thought it was always kind of cool to get hosed down instead of "thanks...leave your ID on the dash!". Does anybody do this still? Any party, anything, or just goodbye?
Quid Pro Quo. NWA senior Captain told me a possible summer start date with 400's flying ATL - NRT. DAL gets what? General? Not flaming, but from a reliable source that has this info. Is this due to the fact that that DAL doesn't have the range, and if so, what is the trade-off? Also heard...
Any substantiation to the rumor that redtail 400's may be servicing either of these cities from ATL in spring of 04? General? I am in the prescence of a 400 guy who wanted your opinion.
