My wife said the same thing. She said he did no favors for pilots. I didn't see it but I flew with him in DFW and always thought he we full of himself.

10 years ago I flew as FO with him we went out for steaks on a CAE overnight. He said he left his Amex at the hotel and asked if I could pick up the check. I did. I also popped for burgers the next afternoon on a mx delay in AMA.

He said that he would pay me back when we got to his car where he had a checkbook. Got to the lot and no check book. He said he would drop a check in my V-File. Never happened.

Gotta love a captain who stiffs a new hire for 50 bucks in grub on an overnight.

Maybe if he revives his childhood acting glory with this retarded show he'll send me a check.

WTF are you talking about? Jake has not been at ASA for ten years! I worked with him in the Standards department and seemed like a nice guy.
 
What a dork. You know what they say, if there is a pilot in the room they will let you know and he did.

How do you know if there is a plot in the room? He'll tell you.

How do you know if there is a United pilot in the room? She'll tell you.
:eek::laugh:

Pardon, I rounded. It was 2000...so make that 9 years.
 
Didn't the earlier poster say he was 31? So he was a 21 year old Captain? Regardless that was a crappy thing to do...

21 year old Captain? I don't feel like looking it up, but whats the minimum age to hold a ATP? I can give you a 100% guarantee this guy was not a Captain at ASA at 21 years old!!! Assuming he finished ERAU at about 21 or 22 years old he would have had to hire in as a Captain. Even if the regs allowed it, it did not happen(at ASA). Maybe some other airline. Either the original poster got his dates off about 5 years or so or his story is complete BS!!
 
Thats kinda what I was getting at. Gotta be 23 to be captain, and its very rare to graduate, instruct, get hired and be captain by that age anyways.

Jake the snake
 
It just entered my mind; perhaps this is a classic demonstration of the American attention span.

Many of us have stopped spitting on the graves of Colgan, for a moment.

This is the world we live in.
 
I didn't know you ASA guys overnight in Belgium...must be nice...lol

Yea, I thought that was interesting too!!. Lets see, he's at ASA. Don't guess she would have been too impressed if he had told her "we'll go to Albany Ga. and eat crackers out of the vending machine". Oh well,.WTF, tell them anything. You never know what they will believe!!!LOL
 
Ok I started a hater thread on this loser thinking he was with eagle but, i guess there are an equal amount of idiots over at asa--no offense to all you "cool" guys.
If someone sees this guy on the line tell him to keep doing as he did on the show:

Telling women he's a pilot with his first words
Tell them his daddy bought him an aerobatic plane
Tell them his dad is a doctor
Tell them he's probably one of the best pilots ever at asa
Tell them he's so good he was only hired with 300 hours from embry
Tell them his watch is the coolest thing about him besides his ipod

I don't know who's more of a loser, him for being who he is or me for watching that ignorant show.

Most pilots are legends in their own minds! Just ask the PALM!
 
Yeah-

That response was pretty nutty.... I have thought about it, and it seems like something a producer told him to say to make the career sound interesting. "A black limo will pick you up and take you to Belgium for waffles?"

-WTF Chuck?

How about "You will be fortunate enough to ride to MCN in a Groome shuttle driven by an exteremely drunk member of diverse ethnicity (with colorful English-speaking abilities....) You will then get to shack up at the old Holiday Inn for about 3 days waiting on an aircraft that is "maintenance ready." We can kick it on down to the skank strip club to enjoy the very best the Macon/Warner Robins area has to offer! We can top off each evening with some PBR and pork rinds..."

-Very Nice!
 
I would forgive him of all his tool-ishness if in the next episode he would suddenly turn and look into the camera and say....

"Ladies and gentleman, Mesa sucks."

LOL! I would pay him to do that!
 
Only a ****************************** bag would go on a show like that

Watch the language please; and what does this thread have to do with substantive issues relating to Regional Airlines?
 
I am sure he is a short timer at EV. I think he is in the pool at at least one airline.

Yep-He will surely be gegtting in his limo to go to Belgium for some great waffles any day now!

-God what a tool you are-ACL! The amazing thing is you still think anyone around here regards you as anything other than a pompus windbag!

I agree watch the language, Please.

However, considering the short life of the thread, with 85 posts and over 5000 views, it has substantive interest amongst your subscribers and possibly some others, which would make your ADVERTISERS extremely happy. Sorry, my former marketing research background is coming out.

On another note, compared to other threads, most posts have stayed on subject.

If the standard and scope to substantive Regional issues is the benchmark, then we would have to shut down the category and probably most others. It seems to be of great interest to your subscribers--some regional and others.

Going back through the posts, I seem to remember regional airlines, pilots, airplanes, training department, commuting, and other aviation words being used that should help meet some requirements. It has created interest and Drama.

From a marketing and subscriber interest standpoint, the thread will continue to have interest for weeks to come and after his possible elimination. The thread has generated alot of "fan based" interest in the TV series.

There is interest as measured in total--some positive and some negative. I bet there are more regional pilots, regional pilots' wives and girlfriends and boyfriends watching this show as a result of a regional pilot being on it. It's somewhat Jerry Springer like, but it catches our attention.

In the end, putting aside other considerations, I AM PULLING FOR THE REGIONAL PILOT! He's one of us.

Please, let the Thread live on, and die it's natural death.

Your posts towards ACL65 sound like you have alot of unresolved, internal issues that you need to deal with.

I know ACL65, and your toxic classification mischaracterizes his real and screename personalities. He is not and never has been pompous, a windbag, or a pompous windbag. Then you go on to attempt to represent the opinions of "anyone" around here. ACL's opinions and posts are balanced, informative, and somewhat insightful. He never attacks others personally because their views differ from his, instead, counters with retort and dialogue that enhances the discussions and when possible he uses factual information to deflate the misinforation, lies, misconceptions, and out right fabrications that exist on this board.

Can you please attempt to do the same? Nevermind, maybe your real goals are different.

Yep-

ACL is a real champ-every post he makes seems more and more like something the General would post...

I really don't know or care anything about the guy other than what comes across in his posts. I am obviously not impressed with the fact that he will compliment regional guys one minute and then bitch about them the next. The guy just needs to choose a side and stay on it!

Oh BTW-His "I just talked to my pals down in route planning and they told me XXXX." Or "I know for a fact that DN had options beyond the crappy place he chose to stay at, because I know everything that goes on everywhere..." This little routine has grown way too old, and no one with any sense is buying any of this silly crap! No one is letting this buffoon in on hiring plans, route plans, or anything else-what a tool!
 
Wow this CRJ567 is quite a guy. There's nothing like having to endure his constant, profanity laced, angry at the world white boy rants, written in a 5th grade level vocabulary. Guys like him are what make Flightinfo great. Keep it up.
