[fly4surf]

And they want to attract talented, professsional people to this business?

Vaseline on the lens. Can't tell it's there, can't see whats through the lens...

But TSA will then start dumping crew bags for Vaseline! I'm sure thats buried in the fine print of the new reg...


CONgress can kiss my ass....

I wonder what MEL category the Cockpit Camera would be...is there an E, for who gives a hairy ********************???

 

[Tref]

Gtfooh.

No really, GTFOOH! (Not you, the jacka$$ writing the legislation.)

I guess you don't need to know anything about a subject to write a law governing it.

 

[mamba20]

Calm yourselves gentlemen. Let the system work. I believe this will die a quiet death. We are in the spot light right now because of this snafu, but if your really worried about it write your congressmen and explain just as ALPA has that this would undermine current safety programs.

a Republican from South Carolina.


These guy(s) are doing fabulous things lately...

It may be a GOP that wrote the legislation, but it's a DEM Congress and Pres. that will make it happen. It was probably a card-carrying-union-Dem (the CA) that ran the cockpit that started this! Mistake, my a$$. It was poor professionalism cut and dried. If ALPA were a professional organization they would insist the CA be demoted and the FO forbidden from ever being a CA.

If you act like an idiot, you'll be treated like one! If we police ourselves, we wouldn't have Congress or the FAA doing it for us. I'm tired of tolerating stupidity.

Senator Dimwitt claims to be a crusader against 'pork barrel' politics. Thus morally speaking of course, he should not be flying a corporate jet home for Thanksgiving. Therefore, I recommend whatever airline crew(s) transports his pompous @ss from DCA to GSP do a very detailed walk around. Keep close eye cause it' easy to miss a bad cut on that tire sometimes. Shoot did I just see a hydraulic leak? Sorry Senator gonna be a lengthy delay...

 

[OurMoney1]

Dont worry!

I'm sure ALPA is on it...

LOL

 

[Mike man]

I say no problem, right after we get a live video/audio feed from their offices so we can monitor the Senators' every action while they are at work.

Exactly...and their criminal record, tax payment record, credit report...and if they have poor ratings or a history of crime or not paying taxes they are automatically out.

 

[whymeworry?]

I say let 'um do it. This will bring the US travel system to a screeching halt. No more corner-cutting to save time. No more carrying minor write-ups back to base. No more professional work environment. Rather it will be a punitive work environment whereby all we "work-to-rule" to avoid losing our jobs.

Bring it on, Senator Idiot!

That's right . . . which is why it won't go anywhere.

I believe a nation wide STRIKE is in dire need. First they take our pay and pension. And now they want to infringe on OUR everyday conversations. I say WE shut the whole system down!!
In Europe, the mere thought of doing something like this would bring about a general strike.. We need to grow some "COJONES" in this country.

It would never happen here. Too many scabs (sigh. . .still) and too many victims of "shiny jet syndrome" with rich parents who will cover their asses forever. Then you have the foreigners who are willing to work for nothing.

Our once great country has been destroyed by lawyers and accountants willing to sell their own mothers to make a buck. They will think nothing of farming out our jobs should we ever have the balls to strike. I'm with you 100% and totally agree, but it will never happen.

Did anyone on here ever think they'd see the day when the French had more balls then we do? What a weak ass country we have become. Come on! The F#%king FRENCH!!!!!!

 

[waveflyer]

Cajones are necessary. But how about we get smart. We are w/o a doubt our own worst enemies. Unions got us our professional pay- but we forgot- became selfish and started b!tching about the taxes-
well now we have no political leverage bc we vote for people who don't support unions. Nice work gentleman- you have disenfranchised all of us for the better part of 20 years- confusing yourself with CEOs.

 

[embpic1]

This is really getting out of hand. If you guys keep this up you will need to get those pilot-less airliners in the pipeline ASAP. Let's see how one of those handles the 'Hudson' scenario.

If you value your career or the industry at all, you will e-mail or call this moron and make him understand how devestating this would be for the avaition industry. The attempt to grap a headline before an election is crowding out his ability to see the unintended consequences (they really need spell checker on FI) of his actions. The problem with these poloitions is they have no consequences for their actions. Let's hold there feet to the fire.
