AP-DAL has a TA

[kngarthur]

Wow, I didn't realize Delta pilots made 159,000 a year. That is some pretty serious change. What are they trying to kill the golden goose?? I take half that and be happy!

Hey instructordude! I thought you were worried about everyones "feelings"!!!!

My point is made. NO BALLS. Thanks you spineless SOB's.

All right, I've read all the posts on this thread and I'm in agreement with you all that are pi$$ed off at these guys saying that they'd do the job for half of 160. That's just nuts. After 30 years of putting up with garbage from management, line checks, fed rides, being away from home, and everything else, we all deserve $324/hr or whatever you guys at DAL were making...we do! But how do you do it? Please tell me. I was in the industry for 11 months before getting furloughed. I flew the Saab at XJ for $24/hr....PATHETIC!!! But what am I supposed to do? Pilots at the majors would constantly chastise me for 'taking their job'....with 34 seats?? Come On! WHAT ARE WE SUPPOSED TO DO? I want your job when you retire. I want to make what we all know we deserve but how am I supposed to do that when the senior pilots at the majors don't protect that? Giving up scope and payrates??? I don't want to fly anything at a REGIONAL unless it has props and I'm dead serious. To me, regional is CLE to TOL not CLE to JAX. So all of you guys that are upset tell me how I can help. PLEASE!

I realize I'm gonna get it for the prop comment and it's unrealistic to think that but where does it stop?? 90 seaters?? Regional my A$$!

Here's the deal. The pilots at the majors don't wany YOU (regional pilot) working with them. Since you are not former military, YOU are not worthy of a job at a major. That's how they feel. If regional guys go to the majors there will not be enough slots left for their squadron buddies when they get out of the military. Regardless of what they SAY, they STILL and will ALWAYS look down on YOU (regional pilot) as NOT worthy of a job at a major. Sad but true.

psysix,
First of all, get a grip.
Second of all, are you trying to make folks think you are the original "psysicx" that posts on this forum? Almost the same spelling, same avatar. What gives?

 

[Diesel]

wasn't psysicx banned?

one of them asked stupid questions all day long.

The Delta pilots had their chance to fix this problem several years ago when DAL bought ASA. The ASA pilots proposed a merged seniority list which would have prevented whipsaw, solved the scope issue and prevented hundreds of Delta furloughs down the road. It was D-ALPA's chance to save the industry. All they had to do was show a little foresight. Alas, times were good back then and no Delta pilot was about to give up seniority to a regional guy...especially when those new hire slots at Delta were being reserved for all their military buddies. Ultimately, the pilots at ASA were told to pack sand. Now the Delta pilots are paying for their lack of vision.

Yep, that alone would have solved Deltas problems....

I dont think so Tim.

What point is that, the one on the top of your head.
You have some nerve telling ANYONE they have no balls you chicken sh*t!
This POS PM's me calling me names and telling me how bad Air Tran sucks, when I call him on it, all he does is make mindless driveling insults. You Einstein, chuck/lawman/what ever user name you call yourself this week are a gutless COWARD hiding behind a computer keyboard! Now go back to your flight attendant job on the 1900!

STFU. No one is addressing you. Your P.M's are as laughable as 737plyt. Anymore threats there Ty? You sound as if you have been playing with Ty Webbs Iguana.

They have welcomed me and I am a former ASA guy. I enjoy 99% of the Delta folks I fly with.

Hey MORON, it's called a "TA." Don't let the legal process get in the way of your flame throwing!

Oh yeah -- and the TA won't pass cause the DAL pilots will hold their ground -- right! If I were you I'd start preparing for your downgrade.

You're wrong. I just spoke with a number of DAL pilots and they were adament about holding their ground. It is wait and see at this point - wait for more details. If the DAL pilots don't hold their ground, who will? You can watch your wage levels continue to drop. I suppose you want to be a regional pilot for the rest of your career...

This is one of the most ignorant comments, there have been many, I have seen posted on this board. Acceptance is based on your performance as a pilot and how well you get along with others. Background does not count. No matter which airline you are with, if your aviation skills are marginal, it will be reflected in how well your fellow pilots accept you.

That's no way to talk about your mom! BTW I heard you sister joined her with your grandmom and the 2 donkeys. Your trailer must be a real sad state of affairs! Just imagine the smell!
How goes the flight attendant life?

More importantly is how goes your parole? I told you to stop hanging out at that junior high. Got any more of those life threatning P.M.'s? Has anyone ever told you this is Cyberspace?
