    LIDO at jb -- bub bye!

    But that's obviously because the Jetblue pilots aren't as well trained and qualified as the Lufthansa pilots. QED. Ev.

    USA Jet isn't usual so quiet

    a) no, b) yes, thank god c) no d) no, have been verified with current JUS pilots, e) yes, I am but f) no, thanks, I'm not drinking with the likes of you until you clear up this last point: g) what about the facts regarding your son, was he or was he not involved? That's the only thing I'd like...

    USA Jet isn't usual so quiet

    Well, (almost) everybody is afraid to be next. That's really why everyone lays low right now and waits for the dust to settle... Understandable. Well, at least yips offspring seems to have gotten one? That has not been disputed by YIP or anyone else yet. The issue is not whether the firings...

    USA Jet isn't usual so quiet

    OK, so let me get this straight from recent posting from yip and others on USA Jet: - Layoffs and paycuts on a whim - no crewmeals - no airlining home on days off - no loading pay - average flying 300 hrs a year (!) - mx being outsourced to the cheapest bidder - senior pilots getting axed over...

    USA Jet IS a lost Cause

    Well, JUS does not furlough, they lay off. That way they don't have to recall in order of seniority but rather cherry pick who they want to have back. Howie

    USA Jet isn't usual so quiet

    That might be true, I don't have the full picture. But if it's true that Yip Jr. was spared and everybody else was fired without a warning thats a huge injustice and quite harsh. But I guess if you mess with B.H.'s money you're f.u.cked. :D Oh, and by the way, the person paying/auditing the...

    USA Jet isn't usual so quiet

    I'm sure a lot of JUS guys are doing that right now. 5 or so have already left.

    If that is actually true this would be a huge injustice. Wow.

    USA Jet isn't usual so quiet

    If you pay for fuel with it even though there is contract fuel available there might be a problem. Can you imagine how many points you earn for one fill up on the -9? ;)

    USA Jet isn't usual so quiet

    What do you mean by "parking" planes? They always just sit around when there are no trips to fly. Do you mean they are deferring mx, like last year? Anyways, the 100% paycut for eight very senior pilots should help payroll quite a bit...

    USA Jet IS a lost Cause

    Active Aero is separate from USA Jet. Active Aero is making money off of brokering trips through whoever. If USA Jet can't compete with the other carriers like Ameristar, Kalitta, Cherry etc., they will not make money and have to swallow paycuts/layoffs. My guess is that Active Aero is trying...

    USA Jet IS a lost Cause

    So, a little over a year later: Is USA Jet a lost cause? Were they able to disconnect themselves from the death spiral of the big three? I hear they just announced that all crew benefits were cancelled (Crew meals, going home for days off, loading pay etc) and layoffs/paycuts are only a few...

    Air France

    Hey mr. superpilot, I'm sure you know it all, but maybe you want to google "are air transat and air france the same" and "are france and canada even the same country" then check back here with the results.

    Air France

    Looks like the Jazz RJ ahead made it ok, and the KLM Heavy following was attempting the same. Crazy french, canadians and dutch, huh? Oh, and I heard a Lufthansa was ahead the Jazz. Stupid germans. And that's the reason why there were no american planes on the approach. They always call Fox...

    Nj Me

    So, do I understand that right, NAS is handling all NJ ME? Are they at all connected to NJ North America? Any info on my other questions? Thanks a bunch, Everett

    USA Jet IS a lost Cause

    I hear he was recalled. Don't tell me you're trying to take credit for this. My Impression is you're trying to sell a non-existent strategy or business plan. Someone said that JUS Mgmt has no goal/benchmark for returning pay to normal. How did they figure to cut pay in the first place? How...

    Nj Me

    I'm looking for some Info on NJ ME. I would greatly appreciate some updated Info on: - Is an Interview in Columbus going to get you in at NJ ME or are they totally separate? They don't list any contact info for NJ ME on their Careers website. - How many airframes are NJ ME flying right now? -...

    USA Jet IS a lost Cause

    Yip, somehow I get the notion here from the replies from JUS Pilots, that they didn't get that message from their management. The fact that a check airman has to correct the angle of mgmts sayings during a private meeting, on a public forum of all sorts, wouldn't make me all warm and fuzzy.

    Best international cellphone carrier?

    If you want to roam, T-Mobile is your best bet. Other than that, get a GSM phone (T-mobile, Cingular) and buy local pre paid simcards. Do NOT buy a TDSM/CDSM phone, they are wortless.

    US Passport required??

    Hey iflyfreight, don't get all worked up just because some hillbillies here call you names. You are perfectly fine by standing by your country and your heritage. You work here and you pay your taxes so some american granny can get her medicaid; Great! Better than some tax evasive american...
