Cherry Air slides one of the Runway

[TxPilot0878]

PilotYip!

Or should I say "John Madden," amazing how easy it is to ref from the sidelines! As a supernatural power and being as perfect as you are when your luck runs out and **CENSORED****CENSORED****CENSORED****CENSORED** hits the fan don't be suprised!

Your jinxing yourself...one thing I will add and I think I speak not only for myself but for the others in this post and industry wide...if you were involved in an accident/incident even now after all your trash talk...none of us would second guess or demean you...and would hope that you made it out ok, and would wait to see the final report and learn from the errors and mistakes involved!

You should be thankful the cherry guys are ok (and Cherry might not be the best operation, but they have a helluva lot of good 'ole boys over there that will always have your back and operate to a very high level and regard for safety!) and that we can all learn from their situation when it has been FULLY investigated.

Don't be so assinine!!! Why don't you jump on board with your fellow aviatiors....sorry to tell you that USA Jet isn't the Pinnacle of this journey...and even at the top whats the point of being there if you can't help others follow your path???

Your comment about the GA (drt-Stl) run is complete and morbid BS, grow the F*** up.

One more point...I guess yall got outbid on both trips HUH?!?!?!?! And if this is the only part of this post you can respond to...you make my point very clear!!!

Hey Tex

Hey Tex, we did not even bid on those trips becaue we could not do them. So watch what you say, you do not have all the facts.

While some figure out whose daddy is bigger than your daddy, why dont we just take a second and be glad this was only an incident and that the pilots are ok.

I dont fly frieght any longer but flew it for years, and typically sound decisions, and competent actions are what keep a situation like this from being much worse.

Not meant to be flame bait, Im just glad that families will not be dealing with loss of life during the holidays.

UH....

Heres Pilotyips FIRST post....

Cherry Air slide a Falcon off the end of the runway Saturday at Lima, OH. Crew OK, airplane unknown


Please tell me how that was derogatory, insulting, insinuating or ill-informed?

HERE's 731's post.....


Pilot Yip,,, Why do you always start $^!&??? You run around and spread more crap that every one on this board combined. You started this thread to find out info because YOU don't know jack about what happened.....

(and on and on... you can scroll up to finish reading that if you want)


that post IS derogatory, insulting, insinuating AND ill-informed!

can you freakin' people go hit the heavy bag for a half an hour or so and take the gloves OFF before you come post here? All Pilotyip did was raise a topic... The point of this d@mn board is to illuminate and educate.

jeeeez.

Get a life Xfr8dog! If the post was ill informed, why didn't any one who knows, say that. Why are you, saying that? How would you know if that is ill informed?

Fishing trip

Must be using the right bait, getting lots of nibbles

Re: Dispatcher Go Spurs?

The decision to go to or not to go to AOH that night was made by a licensed dispatcher in our flt following center. The flight crew was never involved in the decision to go to AOH or not, doesn't your dispatcher provide the same service for you?

I hope the FAA doesn't hear about that. I imagine they expect the PIC to have a little say in the dispatch decision. I suspect your Ops Specs might require a joint decision on the part of the dispatcher and the PIC.

I'm sorry, I really didn't intend to comment on an incident about which I know nothing related to an airport and a company I barely recognize, but the outrageousness of that comment overwhelmed me.

 

[TonyC]

I have just been informed via PM that my outrage was misdirected. Based on the information I now have at my disposal, allow me to rephrase pilotyip's comment:

What pilotyip meant to say
The customer called my company's sales department, who in turned called my company's dispatchers. They took a look at the weather and decided it was in the company's best interest to NOT sell a flight to that particular airport at that particular time. The decision to NOT go to AOH that night was made by a licensed dispatcher in our flt following center. My company's flight crews were never involved in the decision to NOT go to AOH, and I'm sure glad they didn't put me on the spot. Isn't it funny that somebody else tried to go and screwed up?

Apparently, my outrage should be at the attitude of someone who seems to delight in the misfortune of a crew that DID elect to go to that airport at that time and were subsequently involved in an unfortunate incident.

well can not trust Tony C

Do not PM Tony C; anything said to him in private will be posted as a public comment. In defense of my PM to him, I was informing him about the company's way it sells trips, we are not a scheduled air carrier, we are on-demand, we do not call in air crews to fly until we have trip booked, we are very conservative on where and when we will fly, it is part of our safety program. Our flight followers routinely tell sales it does not look like we can make that trip and sales turns the trip down. Attached is the PM I sent to Tony C.
"It worked like this, sales calls flight following and says can we sell a trip out of AOH tonight, flight follower checked the conditions and said I don't think we can do the trip. Sales was not sure of the trip, so they did not book it and let someone else take it."
Not only did he post a PM for public info, he editorialized it and added stuff that was not said in the PM

Take a look!

The other posts presented by Pilotyip happen to revolve around misfortune and bad luck Xfr8dog, and their inability to have Pilotyips forsight!!

Re: Welcome 80for80

R U a college grad? Not that you need to be to be a pilot, but your composition skills have been obviously polished in some institute of higher learning, one of those degrees that advances your aviation career by opening doors, PM Falcon Capt he knows all about that stuff.

Yeah, you'd better go to college or you'll end up as some washed out, 60 something flying for some rat a$$ed freight company for peanuts... PM PilotYIP, he knows all about that stuff.

Did I just say that out loud?!?!?

pilotyip:

I indulged you by reading one PM about this topic, and now I've endured another.

You were correct in asserting that I didn't understand the situation. Not knowing you personally, or the company or type of business that you're in, I did not understand the DECISION that was made to NOT take the flight. The way you described the dispatcher involvement in the decision added to the confusion I had. The way you worded the situation, it might lead a casual observer (including me) to think your dispatcher had absolute authority to send a crew or NOT, and the aircrew didn't participate in the dispatch decision. What is a more accurate description of the situation, as you helped clarify in your first PM, is that the decision-making process never got to the level of involving the crew. That is, the dispatcher rejected the trip from the start. I think I accurately reflected that process when I took the liberty of rewording your explanation of your company's actions - - that is, dispatchers decided NOT to take the trip. When you suggested that the pilots had no part in the decision-making process, you implied (or maybe we just incorrectly inferred) that you were talking about a DISPATCH decision, when in fact you were talking about a SALES decision.

Had the Sales department accepted the flight, I assure you, the pilots WOULD have participated in the decision-making process.

Now, I'm not real sure why you want to take this private, or insinuate that I'm doing something wrong by continuing this discussion in public, but since you seem to be sensitive to the issue, I'll not divulge the contents of the second PM.

However, I must inform you that you have also assumed incorrectly. FedEx is NOT a scheduled 121 carrier. Yeah, I know, that must seem amazing, and it boggles my mind, too. FedEx is a Supplemental carrier, enjoying the relaxed rest rules of Supplemental, and enjoying the less-stringent dispatch requirements of a Supplemental. That's right, our dispatchers are not required to be licensed, either. (Some are, but it's not required.) So, you see, I DO know what I'm talking about on the subject of joint responsibility for dispatch.

OH, and I can also say that there are very few areas of a flying operation that the FAA is NOT concerned about - - dispatching an airplane is NOT one of them.

IF you've gotten through THAT much of my response, allow me to summarize. You've bragged that your company turned down the trip, you've announced to this forum that someone else took the trip and screwed up, and now you're upset about the reaction to YOU? Do you really not understand why?

Give up!

Pilotyip, like I said you are obviously pissed because you got outbid!!!
No one makes it in this business unless they take everything they can! And to prove that...in March of last year when I was flying for Cherry "ya'll" took trips to places we as pilots and our dispatchers agreed were unsafe flying environments...so are you honestly saying that your company or YOU for that matter refuses flights...based on safety and overall complicance with regs/opspecs/and PIC authority??? Do ya'll sit there and discuss it and realize that the company could lose in the long run and safety is higher regard...instead of the bottom dollar? Last time I checked dispatcher don't go by the bible(FAR/AIM) but rather the boss breathing down their neck....saying "GET IT DONE!!!" That your position as a Capt. is regarded as supremacy and noone should ever question you???
Or do you happen to live in Reality which is 135 freight and fortunately for bragging rights your company didn't get the trip and so somehow....you can ride on the ghost "coat tails" of anothers mistake and show your superior knowledge the rest of us lack????????
