    JB pilots say no to alpa/Barely

    There is a little truth to both sides. When we started hiring instructors, a lot have never flown the bus and also did not have a lot of flying experence, the FAA came down hard on JB for that because they were teaching wrong. On the pilot hiring side, yes we did hire guys that did not have a...

    JetBlue- To go or not?

I was lucky that I held my base where I live right out of training and am bidding fairley senior. Upgrade is so up and down...

    XJT to fly UAL

    Not at all, the deal with CAL is not producing any profit and if this is the same then how many more quarters can XJT go before the cash runs out?

    XJT to fly UAL

    Something tells me this will be a cost neutral or small loss for XJT, guess its the only way to keep the birds in the air.

    jETblue Kid and his skateboard

    But your there every week asking us for a ride arn't ya? Sunglasses on the head, skateboard under the arm, guitar over the shoulder, who the hell cares. How about accepting pay cuts, no retirement, benifits cuts, relaxing scope......thats what we have become!

    170/175 and CRJ900

    Its not the 1st year pay, hell CAL pays $30hr 1st yr. It that when pay was negoiated for the 170/700/900, it was far lower than what a mainline would pay. Those plane are compariable to the old DC9s, F100 and the pay is close to half. The problem started when mainline was shrinking their fleet...

    How Will Jetblue Management Respond?

    I think you forget who we have in upper MGT....more like a apple martini and a virgina slim

    JetBlue Pilots beat up cab driver

    I know one of them and flew with them on quite a few trips. Like said before, easy going non-confrontational. Hope there is more to this story.

    Great Gulfstream GIA videos

    The 7yrs I did at XJT(5 as CA), I never had to take the controls from anyone except from VH(twice)...who was also turned in from 2 other CA's for the same reason. Guess that never made it to her testimonal.

    expressjet furloughs

    Isn't that the reason we all got into this career? stay at home and get paid.
  13. Whiskerbizkit

    To all CAL guys... from a furloughed pilot

    I agree with the 2nd post, you knew what you were getting into. Reminds me of the people that buy a house next to a airport THEN complain about the noise.

    JetBlue tickets on eBay

    Its all free advertisement, they were talking about it on all the news networks....and how ebay usually goes they will sell them for more than the normal price.

    Why does the Jetblue CEO take a 50% paycut? Article

    It forces us that are at 2-4 yr pay to start thinking about 190 CA since thats were the growth will be. We won't see 320 CA until retirement!......How many upgrades did we have on this last bid? NONE!

    jetblue closes the door 20' prior to departure.

    They close the flights 30 min prior now. Just ran into this problem this week on a double DH. We got to the gate at 1500 for a 1530 departure and the flight was closed!, the only reason we got on was because we were flying the plane back. So if you are not checked in 30 prior, its a no go!

    Expressjet 8-K

    If they park 30 planes and shut down branded, I can't see anything else but some furloughs. Stock closed at 1.24 yesterday, ouch.
