Asa Cancels 10-20 Flts Aday=no Crew

Mexican:

It is not that they don't like you. It is just how this airline is run. They lose paperwork and even after you get a call, they still can lose your stuff. Keep trying if you want to work here. In some ways this job is not too bad, it is flying after all. But, any time you have to deal with anything in the General Offices get ready to get screwed, pushed around, abused, lied to, crapped on, lied about and then the kicker is that it is "all your fault" in the report they send around to each other.

If you can get used to it, then you will be happy. If you expect professional, humane, ethical, logical, honest, responsible, sensical or punctual than you had better go somewhere else.

It amazes me daily that this airline gets one airplane off the ground. But they do it, efficiently, and have been doing it for over 25 years.

Having just been exposed in depth to another southern city, I had to laugh at that.

As in, "pardon me for disturbing your phone call with my order," and, "I'm sorry I even walked in your door."?

No, we can disagree without being disagreeable. Plus, we don't threaten around here. And also, contrary to your favorite position, my favorite position for you is in the Penalty Box for about 5 days. Enjoy it, and while you're there, feel free to edit your profile into something a bit more civil.

What good is giving the gate a max of 45.6 passengers and 58.3 bags, from a PDA software program, when the gate will always board more anyway. There is major touble in ATL and most other stations regarding max payloads. It shows up on the release, you can call it in, you can do whatever. The bottom line is that ASA can't run a smooth operation to save their lives, and $270,000 will do nothing. A huge waste of money, and Delta is spot on in denying that expenditure. You can come up with the best technology on the market, but ASA will find a way to cancel out all the positive effects. ASA has people problems and thats it. Just have a look around next time you are at the gate, on the ramp, talking with your dispatcher, or whatever. Its a mickey mouse operation, and that will never change. Just fly by the book, and let yourself be entertained by the ASA circus...

Dunno what you have been told regarding the PDA's but your post missed the mark big time. I just got to pick up some airplanes in ARA with the ASA RJ fleet manager who actually had the PDA on him. Quite a nice little toy. It will be a replacement for the APG, Wt. & Bal. worksheet, and the CG wheel. It will not replace the dispatchers responsibility to properly plan a flight including giving the gate accurate numbers. Whether or not that actually takes place is out of my control, IOW the PDA simply figures things out more accurately once the A/C is loaded. It is a hell of a lot more accurate because it does CG by each individual seat instead of 3 zones. It is the FAA's contention that due to the zone inaccuracy that the PAX wt. will have to go up for any errors, ie. buffer. Using seat by seat, which will only be capable via the PDA, will allow us to use lower PAX wt. The $270,000 will be made up via the PDA because we won't have to buy as many PAX off our airplanes. The PDA is pretty easy to use and we would get rid of some paperwork in the cockpit.

An interesting point that WD made was that the new flight ops management team is not too impressed with FCC and sched., so expect some changes, take that with a 10 lb. bag of salt!
