    Current contract proposal SWA

    And what are your thoughts regarding the questions posed above? There were a couple more I thought you may be able to help me with. Do you feel the new duty rigs will positively effect our schedule quality? The SWAPA Scheduling Committee said no, but you must have some deeper insight, what...

    Current contract proposal SWA

    Let's see....poolies, probies, wannabe's and koolies from other airlines. Since y'all have the big picture sharply in focus, perhaps you can shed some light on these issues. I wasn't aware we had a new contract. I thought RLA section 6 negotiations were required for a new contract. I was...

    Current contract proposal SWA

    luv2bone- It may take awhile for the Kool-Aid to wear off (maybe longer for you) but it will and you'll realize your wife and kids may love you but the company most certainly does not. ATA has 59 jets and has never made much money. SWA is the most profitable airline in the world. ATA 73...

    Current contract proposal SWA

    Falcon- Be sure to cast your vote for the Koolie candidates in the upcoming union election...that is if you've been around long enough to be eligible to vote. That is the most you can do to ensure that the most profitable airline in the world will continue to pay less than ATA while providing...

    New SWA Pilot Contract?

    Shag- You hit it on the head. We are NOT being greedy. We want AVERAGE bottom line hard pay for a major airline narrow body pilot. This offer does not achieve that. Am I surprised? No. The company has no reason to accomodate us when our contract is not amenable for another 2+ years. This...

    Top 10 items on Fighter Pilot Checklist

    Albie, I'll spot you the steely eyed FAC, but the two on the list that I know are both DORKS.

    What makes SWA great?

    Daysoff: The profit sharing is a retirement fund and is taxed precisely like a 401K. Company contributions to the account are not counted as income, it grows tax-free and it is taxed upon withdrawal. You are not vested in the profit sharing fund until you reach 5 years of service, i.e., if you...

    Yet Another Swa Question

    If that B737 type rating on your profile was self-funded, I would say that is pretty good evidence to support your assertion that you are serious about working for SWA.

    is this real an F-14 flyby

    The hound is right. Not only do they hate being called that, but very few of them can actually navigate! You can call RIO's "NFO's", however. That stands for Naval Flight Officer, (or "No Future Outside" the Navy). There is no stick in the back of a Tomcat. I think RIO's are nuts, but I...

    UAL IAM Vote results

    Boz...What Do You Know About SWA? Boz........I'm "sitting idly by" making 110K a year working 15 days a month as a narrowbody FO and contributing 3K/mo. to my retirement while my stock options and ESPP shares appreciate in value. Next year I'll be "sitting idly by" in the left seat making 190K...

    Pilot Rest Question

    A pilot is released from duty at midnite. The company calls him in his hotel room at 0730 the next morning to move him up to an earlier flight with a report at 0930. Does the phone call constitute an interruption of crew rest per the FAR's? (Part 121, two pilot crew)

    F15 Vs F16

    I don't believe I made any disparaging remarks re: the Fighting Falcon. I merely pointed out the stellar combat record of the F-15C. You can take all the shots you want, but I know of no time when an enemy 'leaker" got through an Eagle formation to wreak havoc on a strike package, (or even...

    F15 Vs F16

    I was responding to the guy who mistakenly asserted there was a C model bagged in Iraq by hostile air forces. And I'm fairly certain I'm not your "brother". 104 to ZERO (in ACTUAL COMBAT, a.k.a. the "real deal").

    F15 Vs F16

    So once again it is 104 to ZERO, and you can throw in one more Viper guy who doesn't take the time to get his facts straight.

    UAL chapter 11

    For those of you in disbelief over the financial state of UAL, I personally don't think the severity of their current situation can be overstated. They lost 35 bucks a share in '01 and are forecast to lose another 22 bucks a share this year. The stock is trading in the 14-15 dollar range as of...

    Sympathy for the recently furloughed

    You just really aren't very bright are you? You seem to have trouble formulating complex thoughts and even more trouble articulating them. For your sake, I hope you never get RIF'ed. Civilian job interviewers can spot a sorry little twitch like you from a mile away. Now, Albie.....can you...

    Sympathy for the recently furloughed

    You know, when you think that the USAF also has bars in the squadrons, which means they have fighter pilots, whiskey and off-limits poon-tang all under the same roof....... I'm starting to wonder why I went to the airlines instead of just putting in for an interservice transfer.
