Don't worry about other people’s decisions. Staying at a regional is their choice and if they are happy let them be happy.
 
CAL is now UAL's regional.

CAL is closing down its departments and merging them into UAL's. UAL's reservations, marketing, name, and identity is the survivor. UAL's structure is the one being preserved and CAL's destroyed. HQ was moved to Chicago not Houston.

CAL is just another contract flying for UAL. CAL is the worlds largest regional. And CAL already has a regional contract with an incompetent union.

Indeed, you are lucky to have a job....
 
IAHERJ, how much soft time did you make last month? ZERO! Because CAL pilots do not get paid unless the door is closed and the engines are turning.

Most regional pilots get paid for all kinds of soft time. CAL pilots vocabulary does not even understand the concept.

And CAL has never had a contract with rigs.

and once again you are WRONG ! dude, get your facts straight or pipe down. I mean seriously. All you do is ruin threads. At least, in the very least get your facts straight. But am curious who do you work for ? they have rigs and soft pay at your airline ? You a captain, what is your pay rate ?
 
Really? Tell me about my rigs. You mean the layover I had in EZE(that is Buenos Aires, Argentina for you XJT ipod dudes) didn't have a rig that kicked in? Please tell me more about my contract. Lets see, I bid reserve a month or two a year and get paid around 81 hours of 757 pay to fly less than 5 hours for the month. How much of that pay is "soft"? It is obvious you fly for XJT and got turned down by CAL. I can just feel it. Good luck in life. The rejection list from CAL does get merged in with UAL's rejection list, BTW. I hear Allegiant is looking for a few good ******************************s...
 
Name one category you got paid soft time last month doing?

You are obviously the liar. CAL pilots do not have soft time.

How much did you get paid for a day of training? 2 hours

How much did you get paid to fly 2:30 minutes to FL from EWR? 2.5

How much did extra did you get paid to fly graveyard? Intl ops?

How much extra your monthly schedule pay over its block? ZERO!

What the hell are you talking about you got paid soft time? You work for CAL.
 
Getting paid to sit on reserve is not soft time.

It is a perfect example of how little a CAL pilot understands the big leagues.

CAL pilots have no concept of what a contract is as they have never worked under anything but a regional contract.
 
I made 10 K last month and had more days off than I ever had at your little airline where you try to act like a real airline pilot up to the point where 80% of your passengers are still waiting for their purses and handbags to be handed to them in the jetway because they can't fit in the overhead "slot"....
 
Thanks for listing your resume in your profile.

I however only have listed Boeing as that is all you need to know.

Ask me a technical Boeing question if you want to verify my credibility.
 
When you grow a set and at least admit to this board which airline you fly for, I need not explain anything further to you. You have issues for sure. Why your chosen target is CAL is something only you know. Look forward to discussing our next contract with you. Hope it continues to lower your jumpseat priority on UAL/CAL....enjoy
 
Update your avatar with your face so I know you when I see you the next time I am jumpseating.

And while your at list your social, date of birth, mothers maiden name, and favorite password. There is room in your avatar to tell more of your life story.

Give me a break. I put it out there who I work for. You refuse to do so because all you have ever done on this board is throw bombs. Did you not get hired at the airline you wanted to work for sweetheart? I'm sure you'll do well out there in the real world. Not wasting any more time arguing with someone who wants to "answer technical questions" about boeing aircraft to prove he works for a real airline. Guess what? There are a lot of scumbag airlines out there that operate Boeings. A lot of defunct airlines as well. Sorry you hate the fact that some young guys got on with CAL during the last hiring spree and you didn't. Enjoy XJT or wherever you are....Google might help you answer some Boeing 'Q's....
 
Anonymity is the name of the game at FI.com

You want to list your resume and personal info go for it.

And the reason you do not throw bombs is because you like CAL at is regional contract. Enjoy thinking you are getting paid to sit around as you sit reserve.

How many airport alert days did you spend in the crew room?

How many A days got converted to B? How many quick calls? How many day off in Europe did you get last year?

And why are you still sitting reserve after six years? Shouldn't you be a widebody captain by now?
 
IAHERJ is hoping CAL gets the 70 seat flying back so he can upgrade for the first time and get a PIC type instead of all the SIC types he lists.
 
Sit on reserve by choice about month a year.
Zero "A" converted to "B"
Zero days in crew room
Zero quick calls
Never sat in Europe on a reserve trip this year.
Will be a widebody captain when I get there. You, my friend, are nobody anymore. You are about as important to me as the guy who goes through my recycling bin every other week looking for something to might get him closer to a bottle of Wild Irish Rose at the store down the street. For someone who just has to remain completely anonymous, you sure have a beef with CAL. Why is that? Good luck going forward. Seriously. It must be tough....
 
I wonder how IAHERJ gets any experience being a cruise pilot?

Do you secretly pull out your fourth strip when the captain leaves and you are sitting in the cockpit with another FO? Then do you give the other guy the these are my switches and those are my switches if you want to do anything ask me first speech?
 
Don't have a single SIC type. Thanks though. They do still do that at XJT right? Do you have a pretty little EMB-145 sic type on your pretty little license now? Awweeee isn't that special...

Every time dude.....
 
And if you were flying domestic would you also show him your gun?

So is your big pay rate on reserve able to make your F250 payment, afford your double wide, and keep your teeth white doing a can of Skoal a day?
