    Asa Ta!

    You guys are pathetic! Slobbering all over yourselves for a dollar here, dollar there. $13.5 mil "signing bonus," divided by 1700 pilots averages less than $8000 per pilot, for a 5-year struggle?! You guys are worth much more than that. An "industry-leading contract?" Doesn't mean much...

    Netjets Ain Article

    I was curious about that myself. Where does the RLA allow for that?

    Comair FAs shoot and score..

    Skywest'ers don't have any room to talk. You guys have the same pay scale for 50-100 seats. When you "agreed" to this 2 years ago, I asked a few Skywest crewmembers about it. I was told it was "only for 18 months." What happened to that?

    Not Mad at Comair

    I was just saving others the 30+ minutes of searching to find it. Seems to me there are too many people throwing around accusations of others being "scabs" (on other threads in the past - see any thread on Freedom). The *ahem* people *ahem* on that list are true scabs. But I was looking...

    Not Mad at Comair

    I'm calling BS on this one - the only "requirement" they achieved is that they'll get X number of aircraft by Y date, or they go back to the original PWA. That is NOT scope, nor is it a guarantee of growth.

    Not Mad at Comair

    Are you sure? I know that guy (don't know his background though) - I checked the list, and there's a guy with the same name, but he's got a relatively common name... Anyway, here's the scab list link: http://www.fracpilot.com/Scabs%20by%20Name%20May04.PDF

    Flg 3701 Audio Tape

    My statement had nothing to do with modifying the way we fly, or not. Dumbledore apparently is ready to hang the crew simply because they were at FL410 and ended up crashing (and apparently any other crew that crashes an airplane, just by virtue of the fact that they crashed). My point is that...

    ASA contract position.

    I said nothing about Comair being the source of any problems. I said I was sent a letter and sticker by the Chairman of the Comair MEC, saying you support the ASA pilots in negotiations, while directly undermining those negotiations by accepting concessions for phantom growth. I said you were...

    Flg 3701 Audio Tape

    You are saying it is unsafe to go to FL410 in an RJ. I am saying it CAN be safe, but isn't always. It also CAN be unsafe to go to FL350. So since it CAN be unsafe to go to FL350, we should never do it, right? No? How do we make the determination? Oh, that's right, we have CLIMB CAPABILITY...

    Flg 3701 Audio Tape

    How about you read the thread before posting? I do fly the RJ, I have studied the performance charts, and I have been to FL410. Do I do it every day? No. I did it once, where the conditions were right. Why? Because it was a long leg, and the captain wanted to save fuel. NOT to "have a little...

    Flg 3701 Audio Tape

    Dumbledore - Actually, you mentioned airport analysis a few times, and Ty is right, it has nothing to do with this discussion. High Altitude Cruise Charts do. Climb Capability Charts do. The CRJ is certified to FL410. The Climb Capability Charts tell us what altitude we can attain, at 500fpm...

    ASA contract position.

    I have lost all respect for the Comair pilot group. The reason? I was sent a letter by the Chairman of the Comair MEC. I am sure that all ASA pilots received this same letter. Included with that letter was a sticker which said essentially the same thing as the letter, which was "Comair pilots...

    ASA contract position.

    What the hell do you know about it? How long were the CMR pilots negotiating their (former) contract under the ASA contract? You're a fool.

    Flg 3701 Audio Tape

    I've been to FL410 in the CRJ twice - once when we had NO business being there (I was very new and the CA was a hotshot who always has to go as high as possible). The other time we (different CA) were light, maybe 4 pax, and it was about ISA or below. We were filed to FL370, and were climbing...

    ASA and dropping trips

    If you bid day lines or 2-day trips, you can always find another pilot to pick up 1 or 2 of them. Day lines are easiest to get rid of, for obvious reasons. Lots of guys are trying to maximize their flying, and day lines and 2 days fit well into lots of people's schedules.

    ASA MEC letter

    I flew those airplanes - I don't think anyone was excited about it, and we weren't under any illusion that they were "new" airplanes. We knew they were Comair's, and we knew they were complete pieces of crap. Management "bought" them, so we had to fly them. Anyone who was excited about those...

    ASA Pilots should be ready for strike....

    The negotiators haven't even gotten to scheduling or compensation yet on the first TA, so talk about striking is WAAAAAAAY premature. You guys are going to wear yourselves out chomping at the bit for a strike for that long...
