CP calls for 12 Apr have begun.
THE CALL I also recieved the call this morning. The second sentence out of his mouth was "we have postponed some classes..." After I caught my breath, he let me down easy and told me was just kidding. I still have an uneasy feeling in my gut, but that will pass. Congrats to everyone... -

More unprofessional AMR pilot behavior
Dizel8 - I knew the use of the "p" word (persecution) would get a response. I mainly posted that in response to the more viloent responses that have been posted on this thread. I know they are just typing, but who knows how serious they are? Maybe those posts are there just to get tempers... -

More unprofessional AMR pilot behavior
Nathan Jesup.. Thanks for your posts. I wish I could express my thoughts half as well as you have done. As for some of you who disagree, why get so angry? You have your beliefs, and I am sure you think they are correct. Why can't Christians have their beliefs and also think they are... -

More unprofessional AMR pilot behavior
I do not see how any one was forced to raise their hand. I do not see how this is so terrible; that the captain should be punished. Why can't someone bring up a topic and let the "audience" determine if they will participate in the converstion. I agree, it might not be the thing to do, make... -

SWA Interview Prep
Some of you are really hard on Craig here. I wonder how many of you who calim that he is taking advantage of a situation have given money to kit darby? I did not use a pay service to help me prep: but I did talk to active SWA employees to help calm my nerves. Chase was one of them... -

SWA yearly block time
if you guys and gals are not careful you will have the whole country crying for our pay cuts. Even more than the industry as a whole has taken. I like to figure my pay rate looking at how much time I am away from my family. So sitting reserve and flying 10 hours a month does not mean my... -

Sneak Preview UAIR EMB 170
Mr. Hat - I am furloughed from USAir and couldn't agree with you more. They wasted a lot of leverage getting those J4jobs deals going. I was once asked at a lec meeting (after I had been furloughed for four months) if I liked the J4jobs program and did I as a furloughed pilot want people to... -

Deregulation delivered low costs at a price
Deregualtion and Cabatoge Something to think about. Sure deregualtion has had mixed blessings. Now we may see what round 2 does for the everyday employees. Cabatoge in the US. This might bring lower prices yet for the consumer, but in the long run lower wages for the employees. You can... -

Furloughees gettin a 737 type via WIA
I went to HPA Dec 2001 thru Jan 2002 (Happy New Year). Great People, Great Place. If the state will not allow you to get a 737 type try for a biz jet. You may need an employeer to commit to a job after getting the type. Good leverage for the employeer to hire you over the other guy and even...- man-down

SWA Pool numbers shifted???
Coop- I did think it was funny and tried to add a little humor. I guess that did not work. No apology needed! Was fingerprinted today at MDW. No new news, except that they are putting up some halloween decorations. man-down -

SWA Pool numbers shifted???
Coop - That hurts! Plus it is a little useasy to think about. Since the interview and decision board, so much time has passed and many things (for me anyway) have happened, but it still seems like only a month ago. I am just going to get my fingerprints done tomorrow (9-29). I do not like... -
