    Combining the seniority lists

    Sheesh, the argument gets weirder by the day. Are you guys reading the L. Ron Hubbard classics or something? Braniff Psych'

    Seniors Arrested for carrying KNIVES

    Hell, seniors can be pretty brutal! Try cutting one off in the line for the chef-sliced meats at Golden Corral and experience grandpa's kung-fu grip. Huzzah! Aeeeeigh! Or mention cutting social security... Qwahhhh! High-YAH! Braniff

    Type II diabetes and my future

    I know a few diabetic mainline airline pilots, but it was contracted after their hire date and is under close survelliance by doctors. I've lost someone very close to me to diabetes and I think I'd start developing an "exit strategy" myself. Continue flying if you'd like, but I'd have a Plan-B...

    Combining the seniority lists

    Write RJDC for answers? Surely you jest. RJDC is nothing more than thought guerillas (not GOR-illas). They pop up at various websites, make OUTRAGEOUS claims and spout half truths. When you put a little pressure on them or ask direct questions, they're NEVER answered. In fact, they'd rather...

    Scope Defeating Freedom Airlines

    You guys are going to have to realize that the same things that attracted you to aviation are those same things that were won by organized labor within the industry. If you for a moment think that Freedom Air is going to pay anywhere near scale or be anything more than flying bus drivers...

    Free First Officers!

    Actually, during an interview a chief pilot asked point blank, "Did you pay for any of your flight time apart from training?" and I said no, but I did ask why he asked. He said that he prefers to see time that a company hired you to build because "...any Tom, Dick or Mary can cut a check and...

    Flying Turboprops

    TPFM is the best book and recommended reading! It'll help you make sense out of the systems BEFORE you hit ground school where your understanding of those systems are contingient on keeping your job! Braniff

    The RJDC is a cancer on the industry

    Plus, the RJDC is short sighted. What is happening to mainline WILL happen to CMR or ASA once they reach a certain size. Management will realize that CMR or ASA has reached the point where they're controlling too much of the pie and voila! New DCI carrier. This new DCI carrier will again...

    The RJDC is a cancer on the industry

    Surplus 1 You said, "That's really childish and I should ignore it. However, there is a simple reason why I am not flying a UAL 747-400. I don't work for United Airlines. I suspect you work for Delta, therefore it is unlikely that you will fly a 747-400 either. " A ha! So I should *sue* UAL...

    The RJDC is a cancer on the industry

    Hey ~~~~^~~~~ - if flying at your airline admittedly doesn't "pay the bills" why in hell do you want to allow that to fester through the industry? I keep hearing about "...making $100,000..." flying an RJ. I'm not sure where you guys live, but $100,000 really isn't a lot of money after taxes...

    The RJDC is a cancer on the industry

    Answers: 1. Duh, Delta bought ASA and CMR. Just like General Electric owns NBC. 2. See #1 but DCI pilots are not DAL pilots 3. Highly debatable. What do you base this on? 4. Same Tax ID number, big whoop. 5. Actually, we contract out a lot of our simulator training. I did my 727 at Pan...

    The RJDC is a cancer on the industry

    I may sound immature, but I'm simply sick and tired of RJDC's distortions. Whenever ANYONE puts a little heat on the debate, they either disappear, talk about how DAL pilots are a bunch of arrogant ex-fighter jocks, talk about how we thumbed our nose at them when management purchased them, etc...

    The RJDC is a cancer on the industry

    DCI and Delta are not operationally connected. For example, have you compared a Delta flight plan and an ASA or CMR flight plan? Paying RJDC $30 should have imparted more information than that. Do you use the same OCC we do? Where are your simulators? Do we attend the same "fleet common"...

    The RJDC is a cancer on the industry

    Surplus- You seem to forget that Delta runs the reservation lines, makes the ticket stock, TELLS you what routes to fly and then DICTATES how much of the profit that your division keeps. DCI is NOT independant. In fact, if it WAS an independent carrier completely with your own code...

    Does the RJDC support DAL furloughees?

    Well, put your money where your mouth is! THought not. Braniff

    Does the RJDC support DAL furloughees?

    Actually, John Breiling of the RJDC said that if a DAL furlough gets hired by CMR or ASA, that he should have to resign his DAL seniority number. Lots of support. Braniff
