[Feathersword]

To the front page ye scurrvy sea dogs!!

 

[BTSOMT]

Doesn't sound safe. The feds ever give him a spanking over this?

 

[Feathersword]

nye!!

he gets away everytime!!

 

[Tahomos]

Rick Williamson honks bobo also!!

Ameriflight's CVG cheif sent in a report about that, but I don't think nothing was done about it!!

I would hate to know there was a 60,000lb airplane, doing 270kts on a three mile final, without lights on, in my traffic pattern!! Blarney!!

Rick also does not know, or care, about the 250kt restriction below 10,000 feet on this side of the pond!! He says "staying fast helps the controllers"!!

As I hear, he still sleeps through new pilots OE!!

Anybody willing to list their top five complaints about his procedures?




GO BUCKEYES!!!!!

 

[Feathersword]

Rick Williamson honks on bobo!! I bet he would like to honk on Bud's bobo, since he did say he "adored" bud!!

I know my only complaint bout this matie, the fact he is still allowed to fly!!

Isn't being bi-polar a disqualifiying item for a medical??

The Willaimson

I think my chief Complaint is the "dim Cockpit rule". I'm not sure if Rick the @#$# is taking a page out of featherswords play book and using the stars to navigate, or perhaps he doesn't want to see the what the instruments are saying. The most likley cause is that a lighted enviroment scares him because its not dark and cool like the place his kind "i.e. TROLLS" sleep... you know under bridges.

P.S. keep em coming boys! Keep Tahoma on the front page with any luck someone will pay attention to us!

Screaming
Yelling
250 kts inside the marker when IMC
No lights inside the cockpit
No landing lights on EVER!

sleeping with little boys
the dim lighting in cockpit
and lastly.... being bi polar

Sticking up for BR meanwhile BR bad-mouths him behind his back.

Not giving additional IOE to new captains who request it (remember MG).

Letting FOs fly with new captains who need and request more IOE (remember MG).

I am a formal captain for Air Tahoma, I flew the 580 based out of mem. All I know is on the night of the crash, I landed in front of 582 ( the plane that crashed). At that time I was making the run from pit to cinn, ATC turned me on a right base for 36 right. They told us that we had company traffic about 7 miles out for the same runway. After I landed, and was taxing to the ramp, when we saw the plane go down. It almost look like they Vmc. Shortly after that I resigned, when I walked into buds office the FAA was in there. I informed him of my desion and was about to walk off when he told me that if I didn't make that nights run, he was going to black list me in aviation. I told him that if he EVER threaten me or my family agian I was going to rip his colon out of his ass and strangle him with it. It would be a snowball day in hell before I would make this run.
Personally I would love to see Air tahoma go under, but I have been flying for about eight years, and it seems like people like that never get what they need.

It was 586 that crashed. And JZ was the cpt on Pitt that night. I could make a couple of guesses on who this is. I don't believe your story about quitting.-batfish

Who is it?

 

[coonass one]

The two planes that landed previous to the crash were (in this order) an ameriflight e120 (yours truly), then a dhl 727, then the crash. I was on taxiway Tango at the approach end of 36R when he went in. There were no lights on, (except the nav and beacon) and he definitely did not vmc the thing into the ground. The plane had an excessive sink rate, but the wings remained perfectly level. The f.o. confirmed with the tower that they were cleared to land, then replied that they were having engine trouble. The tower asked him to say again, and he tried to reply but unkeyed the mike in mid sentence. This was about 15-20 seconds prior to loosing sight of him below the horizon. For what it's worth.

Who is it?

My 2 guesses would be either Jacob the liar. The guy who claimed to be a citation cpt with time in type, a cop with all this experience etc. But his mommy and daddy bought him a citation type from ATP and he was a reserve cop, that did crowd controll etc. Oh and a new FO when his mommy and Daddy quit for him.

Or it is Hillybilly. Can't remember his real name bc the nickname he had behind his back sticks so well. But the guy from memphis, that got canned from Pennicle and got canned from Air T for his doo doo attitude and THE writeup. He was a cpt, but not even off IOE and he got canned by RW on the ramp at MEM, so no opportunity to put it in BR's face.

Just my guesses.-batfish

[BankAccount=0$]

Just curious where Tahoma is flying these days, and when do they depart? I see their 580 parked in CLE all the time, but I'm never around to see it leave the ramp. I almost took a job with them to fly the 580's, but after taking a trip down to LCK I couldn't bring myself to work there......Thanks Flyinyourshorts.........
