Folks,
You got to just admire the Lee. He is one of those guys who once he is on a team he is on it for life. Sure he only looks at the good, he doesn't stand by his own words (example, additional scope is not something I will vote for), and does everything he can to shoot down others; but if he...
Flamebait?
Show me one place where I have said anything that resembles flame. Ask a ligit question about a large group of operators and this is what I get. I remeber for a while you all were really talking big about improving the place. I take it by your testiness that things have pretty much...
Not really important who it is, the cell number I got seems to no longer be in service. I think he move on to Citation Shares or one of the other fractionals.
So I take it things have not changed in the last six months or so?
To bad.
Was trying to track down an old buddy, can't remember if he was at Empire or one of the others, but I do remember you folks were trying to get some extra pay.
Any updates?
Have you all been able to work it out with management or is it looking grim?
blingair,
I have resisted replying to this thread for a long time, but I really feel sad for ya. I remembr earlier you telling me that you were going to stay the course and make Empire the place to be, or at least your place to be. You have got to pull yourself away from the edge. Based on what...
I agree that with the fairly new contract, World seems pretty good. Is there any proctection there for loss of aircraft over the next couple of years? How about from the transfering of World passanger contracts to North American? My only fear is the relationship between World and North American...
Stand alone only means that they are the surviving partner. I am sure that if Parker moves the headquarters to Atlanta, calls the thing Delta, then the Senator would have no problem calling this thing a stand alone airline. The Senator says nothing about being against the merger, only for a...
Where does he say he is against the merger. I am sure as long as Delta's headquaters and largest hub operation stay in ATL, for a few campaign dollars he could easily see either side of this merger.
Thunder,
Sorry you sell yourself so short. I think if you can get the job done on an old F27 you must be at least a bit above average. As for the union thing, I would not give up on the idea. It is impossible for a company to have a no-union stance, it is simply against the law, they can not...
Cuban B.
My question in why have you brought the crap converstion over to a thread that was filled with real discussion and information. It seems to me that the worthless diarhea thread is back a few pages, just go there and post to your heart's content. I would rather have a real discussion of...
Does World still own you guys? If so any talk of integreation, or how is managment using the two companys? With World's pilots under contract for the near future, does either group expect managment to try the whipsaw and threat of furloughs to get concessions or at least keep pilots on a short...
For tsky, no I don't think so, but I do not know who is the lionofzion.
Thunderworm, nice to have a Hoff who sees things the way I do. I have seen so many companys (outside aviation, but I am sure it applies to an airline) whose employees start complaining the way some of you guys are on here...
Blonds with great bodies or brunettes with killer bodies and both have million dollar trust funds, but neither clean nor cook which would you choose. To each his or her own. Either way you should sleep well at night, with money in the bank, and a few things to gripe about for the rest of your...
Empire's discretion, is that everything? So the company can make up the rules as they go along? That must make planning a future pretty tough. Do pilots have any say in policies or recourse when bad policies are made?
Just so I have this straight,
Empire upgrades are not based on a senority system. They base it on your tt. What about your pilots that have 2.5k tt. Do they still upgrade outside of the company (New hire captains)? How does this respect any type of senority list? And has your pilot group...
From here that is sad bling that you would sacrifice your family to fly an old turboprop for a max pay of $62400 according to APC. Companies like Empire will never give in to a pilot groups demands until they can't find enough people to fill the seats either from attrition or from a work...
Is Empire really worth missing that much of your family's life for? Four years and no Christmas morning or Thanksgiving football with the family. There are hundreds of places you could have spent 4 years and be making more and getting your pick of schedules. I take it you like flying the F-27...
