Anyone get a call from Frontier

Shrek,

Actually it's Comair. I think ASA will have better work rules in the near future.

Look forward to sitting reserve at F9..if given the chance.

I see that ASA and raise you a Trans States.........lol Beat that

I re-raise you all-in with a Great Lakes! You've never sat reserve until you sit it at Great Lakes. Trust me...I scheduled them!

If there's a MESA guy at the table, I'm going to fold.

Yup Mesa is a ROYAL FLUSH for sure......

Take care guys and good luck on the F9 call

For the fellow newbies and others who hope to get on at F9, here is another example of why there is such a positive attitude between employee groups and amongst crew members.

I am on reserve and finished a trip that resulted in me getting put on back on rest in DEN. I get a call later that day from skeds and they are letting me know that they made a mistake and I need more rest than originally planned. More rest? At my last airline they gave out free lunches and high fives if they could skim a few minutes of rest from a crew member. They just don't play games here, and it is a very refreshing environment. Overall the reserve system is better than my last two airlines, but I think that has more to do with the people than the contract.

Imagine that...what a concept. Sure makes a HUGE difference.

Quite a few of us Mesa guys at Frontier - every time I turn around, I'm flying with another. I've hit the jackpot with F9...

 

[stratus72]

Hmmmm, Frontier....Mesa. I bet it's like night and day.

I'm sure that I am a little light on flight time. But I have always dreamed of flying for Frontier. When DIA first opened I use to fuel the first 737-200's. Even back in the early days everyone that I came into contact with was awesome. Now years later as a soon to be unemployed corporate pilot I find myself filling out the application. Although I barely meet the requirements I have hope that magic will happen.

To those of you more qualified than I, I wish you the best of luck. It's refreshing to read a thread without all the negative posts. I hope to be a part of the team.

Plus they have the best commercials. FLIP TO MEXICO!!!

You guys have definitely "paid your dues"............

Some of the closest pilot groups it seems are the ones that go through the most. Take care and good luck......hopefully I will see you on the line someday........

As far as the reserve schedules and the "less appreciated" trips go...bring them on!!!! I would love to go to SLC, OMA, ABQ or any of the other less desireables and spend 20 hours on layover there...and get paid the same as the guys who fly more. What's wrong with that? Also, bring on the red eyes...can't beat one leg and then a nice layover...I like the nights, it's DIRECT everywhere after midnight...gotta love late night controllers, and you hear some interesting stories from those guys late at night!

Starchkr......you will LOVE ABQ if you like Mexican food. Some of the best I have ever tasted........

How is training going?........
