If the schedules are anything like my Nov and Dec ones, then there will probably be quite a bit of deadheading.

My prediction:

PAIN

 

[viper01]

Is that you Mr. T?

Dont forget, B.L. said himself, that "the lines are no different than they have been. You guys (pilots) are just upset about the contrat and are just looking for things to pick about."

Maybe "Willy" will get something nice for the holidays, so he'll be nice to the pilots.

Yeah hopefully he'll get a pink slip!

 

[E120ASA]

He is.

 

["GO AROUND"]

He is.

Fact? or Wish?

As bad as Willie is, he takes his 'orders' from Gary Gross, who has an obvious distaste for pilots, and has made numerous statements to that fact. Soon though, VP Tutt will see for himself the real Gary Gross.

Was Gary ever a line pilot? Thought I heard something to that affect at one time....
I would hate to see him come back to the line if he ever got booted!

No, never a line pilot at ASA, but I think I heard he plays with Flight Simulator, and that's why he thinks pilot's have it easy. Heck, he's been doing Cat III approaches for years so it must be even easier in the actual plane! I mean, c'mon, all those RJ pilots do is push little ole buttons that make the plane fly itself anyway, right? And then we overpay them, and give them way too much time off! The nerve of those pilots, wanting better schedules, better pay, and more time off! Can't wait until the day pilots are replaced by those RPVs! Then I can start picking on someone else, hmmm, maybe the mechanics, they've got it way to easy too. (tic)

Gary Gross, OTH, came from mama Delta. At one time he was working at ASA but still on Delta's payroll, like Skippy was. Heard he had the option to return to Delta also, but don't know if this is still the case on these two points. He is not an ASA pilot's friend, and as I stated, has made statements in front of management and the MEC to that effect. Time will tell if he remains here. Zebras can't change their stripes ya know.

Thanks....
Along those lines, I find it interesting that all these managment types came from Delta. I mean did Comair have the same revolving door policy of delta mmnt types coming and going so freaking much! I wonder if all these people (Carmin T., Gary G, Bryan L, Charlie T, the new scheduling mgr etc) are happy or mad they left mother D. I mean ASA seemed to be the stepping stone for all these mgrs!
