    Rude Welcome Awaits JetBlue

    I think this is probably a little late? I don't work for JB, but, honestly, I'm surprised it took this long for them to finally acknowledge that you have to include the midwest (namely, Chicago) in any growth plans if you want to continue to grow. I know it's probably been a huge struggle to...

    Midwest Flying

    Finally, what did it take...seven pages of people going "Ohh, ohh, hey, I want to do that flying! Oh yeah...sorry Skyway, that really sucks." I find it more than a little ironic that XJT folks are creaming their pants for this Midwest flying, and turn around and say stuff like "If you're...

    Delta to put ALL regional flying up for rebid

    Problem... Here's the big problem that I see. The guy that said that SKYW will refuse to fly struck work...yes, most of you will (hopefully) but will everyone? No. See, it shouldn't even be an option; I love how any time ANYONE mentions the 50/70/90 seat rate, the first thing I hear is "Look...

    Chautauqua Continental Flying

    The hotel comment is great... Management from both sides reads this stuff and somewhere, in a headquarters near you, evil, diabolical laughter is heard. I couldn't let the hotel comment go though. Yes - we stay in ...what was that again? "Places with hourly rates and stiffened sheets?"...

    Midwest looking for 50 seat A/C

    Irony... I was gone before the new contract actually went into place; does SYX have book rates for aircraft with over 32 seats? I can't remember. Someone in the know, please post those. Compare those to XJET, or anyone else. If Midwest is truly putting this out for bid, I don't think XJET...

    Freedom/Mesa/Chicken Taco WHORES....In ATL?

    My two favorite comments in this thread so far, which, by the way, has cost me an IQ point or two... First: (by cmrflyer, I think) -- "Yeah we took it all - all the back water airports in FL that those crazy Delta pilots were flying MCO to MLB..." Pardon me for paraphrasing a little bit. So...

    Intelligent comments from Chautauqua CEO

    Let's see...Skywest bid on the flying, so did Trans States, ASA, Mesa, Pinnacle. Mesa's CEO (J.O.) and anything Continental are worse than oil and water due to past history, right? I talked to Trans States pilots who were absolutely sure they were going to be awarded this flying. Would all of...

    Paris hotel with crew rates?

    Hello all, I know this is a long shot, but just wondering where some of the international folks stayed while in Paris; and if any of those hotels gave a crew discount. Thanks much! -brew3

    Freedom Chief Pilot gets Mesa F/O fired

    Thanks for the response... A350, Fair enough. We _all_ share responsibility in the current situation. And just as it seems like I might have missed the point of what you were trying to say, I was _not_ laying all the blame at the feet of mainline pilots. The trash talking and general...

    Freedom Chief Pilot gets Mesa F/O fired

    Hey A350... This is a long post...and I just couldn't let this go. It's interesting to hear your perspective on things. You talk about all regional pilots, and how you don't consider them scabs. You cite people getting jobs at 500 hours who couldn't get a job flying the Shorts ten years ago...

    Airtran going to White Plains!

    Enjoy it... It's one of my least favorite places to go. I know next to nothing about the 717 -- but when 34 is in use, I'd be really curious (as someone else already said) as to how many people you guys can take. I haven't talked to anyone except turboprop and corporate folks who weren't...

    Skyway..

    It's a government thing, mein... EAS is put up for bid; Skyway actually outbid (read: underbid) Great Lakes for those routes a few years back, so in a way, you're right...it's doubtful that Uncle Sam would pay the freight (so to speak) for a 32 seat Dojet to serve Ironwood and Manistee when...

    Shuttle/Chautauqua Integration Official

    Tindriver72 et al... Why is NOBODY talking about what Habib said earlier? Tindriver - I understand your frustration, but the truth lies somewhere in the middle, right? I don't have a clue what went on during the merger talks -- we heard a lot of banter from both sides...but if, in fact, 12:1...

    S5 E-170 upgrade @ 6/04

    Box, Jobear, and BVT Box, Haven't heard from you in a while either -- hope things are continuing to go well where you are. Interestingly enough, the guy who took over your run (or at least, part of it) way back when was my F/O the other day :) BVT1151 - fair enough, point taken. The soapbox...

    S5 E-170 upgrade @ 6/04

    This is just out of control... If any of these people posting this flamebait actually work for us, and someone does some homework to figure out who they are, trust me - they will be dealt with. Boxjockey is a friend of mine; and it pains me to think that he or everyone out there gets their...

    No more CHQ and GJs Jumpseaters

    Holier than thou? Wow...five pages and still going. I'm going to try to address the people who have written things I disagree with, but with the pages of *hit, it's going to take a little while. Funny that the original post was talking about jumpseating. Unless you're a scab, and honestly...

    Thanks much to the CHQ crew...

    The airing of grievances... I can't even believe I'm gratifying this thread with a response, but here it goes anyway. Ultrarunner - the next time I want to backpedal out of something serious that I said but probably shouldn't have, I'm going to call you. I'm not going to insult your wife or...

    DTW area question

    Thanks for the info... I appreciate it -- as it turns out, the folks I'm staying with are going to go to the game as well; do appreciate the information, though! Take care, -brew3

    DTW area question

    Hi there, Wondering if some folks in the DTW area can help me out. I'm looking to travel up there to take in a Tigers game at Comerica Park soon. Is there public transportation that will go from the airport to the park? Or am I renting a car or cabbing it? Looking at mapquest, it looks like...

    Republic Airlines

    Shameless thread hijack... Sorry to divert the thread - Jobear - seriously - good luck! I'm sure you have pages of gouge, but PM me if you need anything before or after you're hired. See ya, -brew3
