AE FO lies about being F-16 among other things.
Actually, there is no 'Heat' for me to get out of- I was on here looking to see if anyone else posted anything about this Eagle FO> Having spoken to a few friends in the FDNY, they couldn't believe a person would claim membership to their brotherhood. And then brag about it on the web and to a... -

seriously... That's a great post and a perfect response! Thanks Ex737Driver~ -
CAL Management Proposal, Delta's Contract
Since I've been busy the last few days, I haven't gotten a chance to reply- So here it is. I have worked as a Local Council Sec Tres. I have worked as an ALPA Safety Rep. I have attended Union Meetings on my days off. I marched on Wall Street two years ago, and in IAD back in my TSA days. I... -
CAL Management Proposal, Delta's Contract
Something else, as I was talking to a friend and this came up. Since management has been so kind to offer us Deltas PWA+1 (Being sarcastic, before I get slammed)... and we all know it's a NO Vote IF it were even going to be put out for a vote (Which it won't). Why not look at the SouthWest... -

Pilots will become irrelevant in the US domestic market
Rez... You bring up a good point. But lets ask this question, What is a "B" Scale? If those aircraft were on property for 'X' amount and a few years later we say that all new hires go into those aircraft but at 'Y' scale, to me- that is a "B" scale. Now, if we brought the 50 and 76 seat Jets... -
Jetblue Pilots' barrel bobbing closer the waterfalls edge...
I'll add something. The though of a Lufty 380 coming into JFK and then going on to LAX is plausible. But let me ask you this- That same 380 was suppose to turn around and head back to Europe. Now it's not. So what heads back to Europe? Is it replaced by another Star Alliance aircraft (CAL/UAL)... -
Pilots will become irrelevant in the US domestic market
Oh, and I would fly my old ERJ145 or a Q400 for Continental Mainline in a heartbeat. And many of my fellow pilots would also. Knowing that I would be under my own carriers colors, and that someday, I would end up in something much bigger~ None of the pilots hired in the last wave (your bottom... -
Pilots will become irrelevant in the US domestic market
Want to explain how I'm thinking "Shortsighted"? The reality is, we will never get those 19 seat turboprops, 30 seat turboprops, 37 seat turbojets, 50 seat turbojets, 76 seat turboprops and now, probably.. 76 seat turbojets aircraft back on mainline scope because- How does one group do it and... -
Delta and the DC-9s
IamGumby... Care to explain how you came up with your numbers? What would be the training events if a Compass or Comair pilot just applied to Mighty Delta like the rest of the common folk and got hired? Couldn't Delta management also go- Lets hire every one of ExpressJet's Captains. That... -

Airtran management does it right
While I agree the management only does things like removing flight bags and replacing them with EFB's for cost effectiveness... Damn, that is a funny commercial! -
Pilots will become irrelevant in the US domestic market
Trans States Holdings placed an order for an aircraft that- Isn't even flying yet, and Being produced by a company that hasn't produced a modern commercial aircraft. This was purely a marketing tool and union busting move by management. Then again, look at those "managers". The word IDIOT... -
FAA forecasts dwindling student pilot numbers
Just wondering what you consider an "insane amount"? A 4 yr degree will cost you between 50-80 grand.. maybe more if you look at top tier colleges. Getting your private to CFI/CFII/MEI will cost between 50-80 grand. Expensive, sure. But not insane. It's a career, not just a job. Do you think... -
FAA forecasts dwindling student pilot numbers
Do you really think there will only be @360 ATP issued out 72000 applicants?! Reality is, there will be no shortage of pilots available. There may be a shortage of pilots willing to fly under a poor contract, but that is another story. -
Hadji could blow up airliners with.....breast implants
Article came from The Sun and reported by Fox News.. Great sources. -

CAL Management Proposal, Delta's Contract
Actually, some do. That's why United Airlines got such a bad interest rate when they had to deal with their vendors. But that is not the point, the point is.. we should be asking ourselves- What is the cost of the Delta PWA if applied here? If the cost is @ 500 mil, then there is no reason... -
U2, and not the rock band...
Damn.. was hoping it was about the Band~ LOL But a great article anyway! -
CAL Management Proposal, Delta's Contract
Sounds good... I also think we should look at Delta's pre bankruptcy PWA and add that into the mix as well. Their current PWA is a post bankruptcy concessionary contract and doesn't hold water when looking forward and things are getting better. That being said, there are a few things in there... -
CAL Management Proposal, Delta's Contract
Triple H, I hear ya... The sad part is, most pilots in our industry don't work together nor do they have forward vision. Had pilots thought about the RJ issue back in the day, we wouldn't have the mess we have now. Didn't PanAm have a system where their Pilots flew all their aircraft.. no... -
CAL Fleet Plan
I hear ya.. but it's better than losing airplanes or staying stagnant! Got to be good for a few more Captain slots too.... That, plus the retirements (more than 4!) that will hit us at the end of summer/fall... How we can't recall and maybe even hire, you got me! -
