CHQ Pilots - Caution in ATL

[SennaP1]

Yeah and you cost pilots permium time as well as clog the taxi ways.

Last time I checked there were more of you than us.

It only takes 1 to clog everything up on the ramp.

 

[Silent Partner]

Boy you guys need a life besides wasting it on this!

 

[The Drizzle]

you mean to the bottom which you and mesa are neck and neck for the win?

good thing i had my binoculars, or i wouldn't have seen that from a mile a way

Yeah, Nice setup ATL has huh??

 

[John Pennekamp]

It only takes 1 to clog everything up on the ramp.

Or the girl up in the tower that gets totally confused if she gets more than 2 airplanes on the ramp at once:

"Ok Acey, I need you to do a left 270, a right 180, transition left, hold short of the quarter point roadway, do a right 180 transition right and stay with me, ground 121.75!"

-or-

"Acey 123, request pushback, D28"
"Hold your position"
[10 minutes later]
"Acey 123, rampers say the whole ramp is clear... requesting push"
"Hold your position for traffic!"

Now that's funny, but true.

I'll try and say hello from my cockpit when I come in on the United side....If you can hear me since your wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyy down there

This kind of BS is exactly why we need a national SIDA bagde.

 

[Mike man]

Leave it up to CHQ and SA to whine and moan about someone actually enforcing the rules!!!

With a title like this... CHQ Pilots - Caution in ATL. How was this not a threat to CHQ and S5 pilots? Why doesn't the Majors forum have threads like "UAL Pilots - Caution in DTW" and then go on telling everyone how they will call the piloce if they see anyone walking on the ramp.

If it had been a thread "Attention All Non SIDA ATL Pilot" and then went on to quote the memo regarding pilots outside of the shadow of the aircraft that the TSA is looking for them. Then nobody would have b#@$%&d about anything.

Besides now the CHQ crews are out of the Skywe...ASA crews way now.

In PIT, you get shot if you stray from the footprint of the plane. Or so the FOM insert says.

Because you guys are new in ATL. The original poster could have not said anything about it at all. In my opinion, he was helping you guys out. Get the sand out of your panties and appreciate it.

Actually, we're east of United. And instead of us why don't you try to say a friendly hello to the United A320/737 drivers who used to fly your routes a couple months ago out of ATL?

As long as you say hello to the MD drivers that you taxi by..

Will do!

I know who you are talking about. I heard that she went to riddle and couldn't fly worth a crap and went on to something else and I guess this is it. Which she does like crap too!!

It will soon be XJET.

 

[MEL'ed]

Similar to CASS?

This kind of BS is exactly why we need a national SIDA bagde.

Couldn't the CASS database be the basis for a national SIDA badge? It would be easy and all we have to do is get pictures taken at any SIDA airport and print out a national badge. Wam-Bam-TSA get the f**k over it-Ma'am

Actually, she went to ERAU, washed out of the pilot program, got into the ATC program, failed the FAA test, now she's "pushing tin" for the city of ATL on the ramp.

That sounds about right.

Speaking of confused people, yesterday we were taxiing in when a CHQ jungle jet had just pushed. Ramp told him to take the left side north. He promptly made a 180 and proceeded south on the other left.

My captain and I both looked at each other and said, "I thought he was supposed to go north" simultaneously.

About that time, ramp said "Chatauqua, just so you know, you're heading southbound."

We didn't say anything, but it did make us wonder if CHQ flies so cheaply because they have Embraer use compasses found in boxes of Crackerjacks.

I didn't block them on the radio either.

Well they have started to use delta gates and have stopped polluting our ramp.

 

[blueridge71]

I noticed that he was on the B concourse side of the ramp. I didn't see him push, but I did wonder about his position.
