Oh Noooooo. You just mentioned RJDC! Even if everything you said is proven beyond a shadow of a doubt, that acronym alone will generate at least a dozen posts.

.....you're right...It's like having an (R) behind your name in an election....Forget the facts....judge based on the association....
 
Then almost all regional pilots are scabs as we are/were flying routes that were once flown by mainline planes while those pilots were furloughed.

That is why I can't get on board with the RJDC. They were pissed about scope and saying it restricts their job opportunities while Delta was furloughing. They wanted bigger airplanes that would have resulted in more furloughs from the majors.

Now they are bent that we are shrinking and mainline may add bigger aircraft, thus creating more mainline jobs. Even though they could apply for the higher paying jobs.



Great post! Your 100% on! Comair pilots are scabs, and are about to be unemployed scabs!

Regional flying was created when mainline pilots said they were too good to fly those little airplanes. So nice try on regionals being scabs to begin with. I am pretty sure you have more to worry about at mainline on unemployment then I do at Comair. Your days are numbered without having a problem in todays environement. The only mainline I wish harm on is you though. You now what, you are not even worth the time.....

We aren't scabs (I'm a comair pilot), I was pointing out how stupid it was to call a furloughed mainline pilot a scab for flowing back into growth aircraft at a regional while there are furloughs at that regional.

In my opinion we have people that are just looking out for themselves and they don't care who they have to step on to do it.

Zing...another good one acrap. Where do you come up with such great, original material? :puke:

Your Comair voodoo doll worked for me. I got furloughed 11/5 and start a new job that pays 4x the money...and I don't even have to wear a double breasted blazer and an asshat. Thanks for your voodoo magic. I owe you one.

BS! Your to stupid to get another job! In any case, 4X Comair pay would bring you to what $48,000! Well it's a good start in this economy!

Well that was just about the most worthless, meaningless bunch of crap I have ever read! I think you need to check your history there Comair boy!

I'm stupid?

If you meant to command me to go to stupid:

1. I don't know where stupid is.

2. I don't follow your orders

If you were trying to insult me genius, the correct sentence would read: "You're (contraction meaning YOU ARE) too (proper adverb, not misplaced preposition) stupid to get another job!"

Asshat

Eastern airlines caused this. Or where you born yet? Ask your Grandfather what happened. They were too good to fly the little planes. So sorry acarpe you must be a special person. Glad to see you get to wear a special outfit. I hope after this merger you get to fly the short bus. F off... I would have been proud to wear your uniform once when I was a child. Well I was stupid then. I will only spit on it now, and hope for your and only your failure.

Wow talk about ignorance. Ever stop and think that while the current TA for MAG is poor that they are fighting hard this go round and many are going to vote no? The pilots are fighting for what's right and aren't just going to settle for a pathetic PBS offer that watery at best. Perhaps you forgot that the pilots won in the long run to prevent JO from using Freedom as a whipsaw and gaining one seniority list...which is something that those at another regional weren't able to do. It's very unfortunate. But people seem to forget that.

Mesa pilots signed the last crappy contract to capture scope, if they didn't then Mesa would have renamed every aircraft "Operated By Freedom Airlines". Ask Trans States about not capturing scope and stopping GOJets is working for them now.

GoJet and Freedom were both direct results of mainline scope clauses....They were exploited by managment....but created by ALPA/APA....

I agree, America West at the time Freedom was started did not have a scope clause to keep JO from flying 700-900s for them, so he took Freedom and started running with it as far as he could before he was stopped only because he opened his big mouth during negotiations and the pilots captured that scope and stopped Freedom from being a non union carrier, but in turn signed the same crappy contract with the exception of Freedom being under ALPA.

You're an idiot.
Mainline was too good to fly those little regional jets.
Well, you guys did it to yourself. We should be flying nothing but props. But instead we're flying these CRJs on mainline routes.
You have no one to blame but yourself.
Personally, I hate your routes. I'm sick of sitting in the airplane for 3-4 hour legs. We shouldn't be doing anything more than 60 minutes. But thanks to you guys, who were too good for RJ, we're doing your work.

I never voted For or Against RJs in the begining! Our union caved and gave up more RJs as we got screwed post 9-11 and in BK! I don't blame anyone including Comair for you flying RJs! I'm just amazed it took so long to turn the corner and realize what a waste these planes are. It's good that they are starting to park those things. I hear the 70 or 90 seater is better however!

I'm glad you got the balls to say what you mean! Good Job!

Who caved?
The planes aren't a waste. They built the regionals to what they are today because the mainline guys didn't want them.
Again, we should be flying props, not jets.
The 70/90 is just a stretched CRJ...it's just an RJ.

Why no more PM's from you?

Nothing's really changed, you're still stupid.:laugh:

Its ok too. I wouldn't piss on a cmr pilot if he was on fire!

Gojet created by ALPA?
Where do you come up with this stuff? And you wonder why your lawsuit was such a success?:laugh:
