Yawn! I'm with Axel.

Why don't you Chatauqua and Mesa guys grow a spine and fight for a better contract?

lots.

If you're gonna throw stones......that worked out well for you over at ACA now didn't it

Yeah. The pilot contract was why Independence failed. Right.

Underbidding by Mesa, Chautauqua, and Trans States was why we lost the UAL flying in the first place.

If you can't compete, you gonna hit da street!

Why are Mesa, Chautauqua, and Trans States still around, while ACA went under? ACA wasn't willing to compete. Same reason why XJT won't be around in three years.

Some of you ACA boyz are over here on the 170 now, right back where you started.

ACA Corporate Culture.....complain as much as humanly possible.

Why don't you ban yourself? Left seat at 24 years old is a great accomplishment! So is an airline that signs a new contract for more flying.

Not really if your "daddy" payed for it, I'd say it's rather easy.

Actually it was your mom who paid up for services rendered.

 

[donvag]

thanx for being the epitamy of why our salaries are going down in this business. Its like you guys in CHQ and Mesa! flying a jet for a lot less. You guys need to grow a pair. Good luck in Mexico! Hope you guys dont screw it up down there!

 

[Mike man]

This is getting a little old...go back to you mommy and daddys house donvag.

I'm pretty sure we have already established that CHQ and ExpressJet pay scales are actually pretty close. I know you have just found out the news, and wanted to jump on the anti CHQ waggon. As for the pay going down, GJ and the original Freedumb are partly to blame--do some research next time you try to talk some smack, because just like your captains they are much better informed than you.

Flying 69 aircraft as the new COEX will be outstanding! I love this company. Here come the upgrades!

Soon to be EMB CAPT SKILLZ

Congratulations on working for less than you're worth.

 

[Stifler's Mom]

Congratulations on working for less than you're worth.

He's actually not worth that much.

This news for us was bitter sweet. We didn't want XJT to loose any flying for COA. I'm not sure that anyone at CHQ was aware they our company had bidded on the flying. I hope that XJT continues flying those planes for someone if not COA. Most of us care about what happened to the pilots at XJT. This flying could have gone to the lowest bidders; TSA and Mesa.

There is no need to bash CHQ pilots, we didn't do anything.
The bashing needs to be towards the COA management. They're the ones who decided to put flying up for bid. If flying goes up for bid, someone is going to get that flying. PERIOD! It has nothing to do with the either pilot group,

 

[Axel]

Hey all you guys screaming and yelling for page after page of this: Someone got it on video. See if you can guess which one is Skillz and which ones are you.

You guys never learn, do you?

...He doesn't even have to reel you in; you're jumping into the boat. I hope the game warden isn't waiting on the dock, because if he is the uber-baiter EMB Skillz will be subject to a large fine for catching over the creel limit...

That's because the XJT guys have class and standards. They're not going to bend over and take pay cuts to fly this airplane. Unfortunately your pilots will.

Just for the record....none of their airplanes have left property yet. They can still do other flying with them and then you'll be SOL.

Hey Captain cock ring, last time I checked pilots don't negotiate our flying rates. The CEO does, nice try though. We have not taken a pay cut. Get your information straight you loser.

 

[Joe Schmo]

Sorry to hear about XJet losing part of the contract, I know alot of good pilots there. I'm sure you guys will still be able to get on with chautaqua though, I mean I doubt that they have the capacity to service another 69 aircraft for continental. Still sucks you guys have to give up your seniority and pay, but at least the bases, equipement, and routes will be what your used to. I know alot of good pilots at Chautaqua to and none of them are happy at the fact that pilots are going to be furloughed. It's foolish and immature to point fingers at others' dismay, were all professional pilots here and we all should be more supportive of one another.
I wish all you guys and gals at XJet all the best.
Sincerely Schmo

 

[Turtlesfly]

please please please tell me that everybody here flies better than they can spell and figure out grammar. People will say it doesn't matter, but could you imagine a PA sounding like a post from EMB SKILLZ? When you mis-spell every ten words on this board you look just as silly.

flame off.

 

[pilotmyf]

The saddest part is that he is thinking about upgrading with 1700 hours. Hope you enjoy your upgrade ROOKIE ASS BIOTCH

This dude is a CFI!!!

 

[EMB170Pilot]

I've flown with EMB_Skillz before and he is a true professional.
