    SWAPA "AIP reached with Company"

    Those numbers are staggering. Don't worry we are going to flip the script and outsource the widebody!

    Possible SWA T.A. pay numbers... Embrace the suck.

    Last 3 captains all yes votes. Unabashed, thought it was a solid deal. The pass margin will be stunning. I've waited my entire career to vote against scope but it won't matter. The best part will be hearing GK announce his pride at reaching a deal that helps pilots. Hope I'm wrong. That...

    SWA Training scheduling

    TA in the works. Explosive growth wink wink. Don't worry about scope we are hiring like crazy, wink. I heard they have ideas for 500 more aircraft to 50 cities, wink wink.

    Dinnergate

    The whole thing isn't working in my head. I did a quick google and looked at the menu: $45 for a 3 course prefix (maybe I have the wrong place but the name can't be common). That doesn't add up. So I look at the bill. $14 blue cheese. Excessive a long way from $400 (bravo to the waiter who...

    RIP AirTran. Nostalgia thread

    The airline ends scheduled service today. I thought we needed a solid thread chalk full of nostalgia. A couple of my highlights: 1. McKinley Grand bartender 2. Humptys 3. Superman and Batman, the story changed several times and I have no idea what the actual story is, all part of the charm...

    SWA new schedule offers more flights than any other single airline on the planet!

    The article didn't mention FLL-Havana. Oversight?

    Why are the airtran to swa guys not voting?

    I wasn't sure which was worse an uninformed voter or a non voter. I've been a SWAPA member for roughly 20 minutes, do you really want me weighing in on an election?

    Southwest Window

    How did everyone just let this one go by? I haven't posted in a while but had to get off the bench when I read this baby. I thought it was an awesome hipster ironic post, funnier than a PBR in an upscale restaurant, then upon further review it occurred to me that it was honest. Surely one of...

    Airbus: Pilots don't really need windows

    I'm onboard. I can fly looking at a screen with a a guarded window switch that is only used if on emergency power. Having a zoom feature would also be pretty sweet. I also like that the pax can't get to us for 9/11 purposes. 90% of my time flying is spent trying to get the sun out of my...

    Southwest slam clicks- c'mon captains....

    This is now getting awesome. We pull into the gate at 1AM. I follow the Captain to his room. We go in and he opens his bag and pulls four minis out of his gym shoe. I know from the days flying that he like to run 6 miles a day. So there we are. A couple of normal guys drinking minis out of...

    Southwest slam clicks- c'mon captains....

    Well they do have a pretty sweet contract using there zero leverage strategy. AirTran has a far worse contract that involved picketing, strike votes, etc. I think we also got our new contract when somebody bought us, which I know is totally unrelated. I mean the company stalled for five years...

    Wall Street airline selloff

    Looks like the airline selloff has ended. Did it end because of entitlements or oil subsidies? The 100 troops we sent to save Iraq? Dick Cheney article? Corn subsidies? Inflation? Obama, Bush, Clinton?

    Southwest slam clicks- c'mon captains....

    Ty, I'll buy your coffee and beer if I see you in a bar. I can only imagine your struggle. I'm not sure what you and your family will do on 150K a year. I also can't imagine going to a new airline as an FO taking a pay cut. It has never been documented in aviation and never happened to the...

    Pilot shortage solved

    It's not that long to wait for a number. I'm almost to 5 years on SWA version of this program.

    Pilot shortage solved

    You guys have been making too much money for too long. Great Lakes has paid pilots next to nothing for years with the promise of a quick upgrade and a shot at a good job. Lets take our current flight instructor. He has 100K in loans for college and licenses. He has been making 20 bucks an...

    Pilot shortage solved

    http://news.delta.com/Endeavor_to_Delta It would seem to me that you can scrap your Delta app. I'm guessing that Delta hires both military and civilian pilots. If the civilian pilots come from Endeavor can we then assume they won't come from the "stack"? Slick move by Delta. It keeps...

    Delta has mid contract improvement TA

    From my regional career. ATL-HSV-DCA 6 hours ATL: That was at ASA in Delta paint. They go junior, except for a couple guys who enjoy zero adult supervision. You know: no tie, Northface pullover, unshaven, packing a toiletry pack and some cigarettes. Couldn't tell you a single memo in the...
