Commutair and Shuttle America

[avratdwc]

Hey all, just wondering what the dilly is with Commutair and Shuttle America, have not heard to much about them lately. I am also wondering why people have to think about Trans States, at this point and time I will take a position with whoever I can get. I am still waiting on hearing back from ASA. Insight would be appreciated. CYA

If you mean rumors that one was going to buy the other, I've heard nothing meaningful about that. I think they were just rumors.

If you mean "how are they doing," I can only speak for Commutair, but it seems like we're (slowly) crawling back up the hill towards profitability. Albany is building extra ramp space to accomodate us, so that's a good sign.

Rumor is that we'll probably do another new-hire class toward the end of this year, but again, that's rumor. Officially, we're still not hiring right now.

Funny, I have worked for all three of the airlines in question.

Commutair- Ask someone else, I haven't been there in over a year.

TransStates- Recalling all of their furloughs for an alleged late-Sept./early-Oct. "class date". They are apparently finding that a lot of the furloughs have moved on to other places and won't be coming back, so they are likely to be interviewing again soon. They are literally in the process of recalling right NOW, I received a call yesterday as a matter of fact.

Shuttle America- Not interviewing right now, but probably will interview in september for a late-Sept./early-Oct. class. If you have a letter of recommendation that pretty much guarantees you an interview at least.

hey capt crunch!!

take it easy with what you say, because you dont know anything about IP freely

 

[Capt.SpongeBob]

I know Mr. Freley and have also worked at CA, TSA & SA. I can assure you that it is through no fault of our own ( two furloughs ) that we find ourselves in our current position. In his case he was lucky enough to be hired on at SA as a street captain. I would also like to add that Mr Freley is a very fine pilot, and he's probably "wondering who the hell is this?"

 

[avratdwc]

Well I must say that I appreciate the info given to me by all. And to capt. Crunch, I was wondering where you get off saying what you did. Who do you work for? I will be honest in saying that I dont have a job yet but I am confident I will get one. Why dont you be happy with what you have, if you have anything. In case you are too good to see, there are alot of guys in some very tough places rite now and by you making the comments you do it does not help the cause for everyone. Thanks again guys for all who have helped with some info, it is appreciated. CYA

Flamebait

>>>wow your a winner, hope you make better decissions in the cockpit than you do as to where to send your resume.<<<

Sure, I think I am a winner. Evidence?

1- I can spell, unlike YOU.

2- I can differentiate between the very different situations in which you use "your" and "you're", unlike YOU.

3- I don't feel I have to hide behind a screen name like a little girl and insult total strangers for no apparent reason, unlike YOU.

Not only that, I managed to get a left-seat job flying a turbine-powered airplane for a 121 carrier in the worst job market in twenty years. Why WOULDN'T I be happy?

That aside, you are a truly unbelievable fool if you can't figure out that perhaps, MAYBE, a certain terrorist act perpetrated on us almost exactly a year ago might have had a part in my having to change jobs.

If not, I pity you. I suggest you crawl back under the rock from which you unfortunately managed to make your pointless appearance.

P.S.- Okay, SpongeBob, who ARE you??

Kick his a$$, Sea Bass!

 

[I.P. Freley]

Pissed off? Hardly.

Try MYSTIFIED. Difficult to make sense of someone so clueless.

What a tool... If this is what you do for fun, I recommend trying a new hobby.

Capt Crusty, I think it's time to take the breast pump off your head for awhile.

Oh by the way newbie, How quickly you got your ATP . ROFLMAO.

Enjoy the show, showboat.

 

[I.P. Freley]

>>>I dont know what ROFLMAO means, but it should mean no one cares if your a shinning star in aviation and have SO much time before your 23. Especially some one from Danny's Dimploma shop.<<<

Hey, numbnut, try PROOFREADING your posts... If, in fact, the concept of proofreading MEANS anything to you.

For starters, "your a shinning star" contains two mistakes in the space of four words... Three, actually. You must be very proud of yoruself. "Shinning" isn't quite a word, but then again, noone (pay attention to that word, "noone", it will pop up again before I am done) here but you need to be told that.

Secondly, "your" is an incorrect usage in this case, just as in your earlier post. I presume you didn't finish high school or you would know that already. If you DID finish high school, your english teachers need to be run over by a bus and then dynamited for good measure for letting you out of the asylum without learning anything.

Furthermore, "dont" isn't a word. Try "don't".

Also... "no one" should be one word, not two.

Similarly, "some one" is one word, not two.

By the way, what's a "dimploma"? One can only presume that you have shopped there (Danny's Dimploma shop) to explain your graduation from grade school and/or high school, if in fact you achieved either.

By my count, that's six grammatical or spelling errors in the space of two (fractured) sentences. But then again, at 35 words, that only equates to one error per every six words or so, which for you I imagine is a record.

FYI, "ROFLMAO" means "rolling on the floor laughing my a$$ off." Which, I should add, everyone with more than six functioning brain cells is doing whilst reading your posts. (by the way, "whilst" isn't a misspelling, you might want to look that one up, if you know how)

Keep it up, stupid. We're waiting.

 

[Jack Hass]

Shut the Fuk up Cpt Crunch....and go back into the cereal box you came out of!

 

[I.P. Freley]

That's the only comeback you have, "Captain"? I'd hoped for, but surely not expected, a better response.

Funny, I wouldn't have thought of "Hooked on Phonics", but then again, I am not a regular user of the product, as you appear to be from your quick mention of same. Too bad none of it had any apparent effect upon your use of grammar or spelling... I hope you got your money back.

So tell me, from a first-person perspective, how does it feel to have gained one's whole knowledge of the English language from a cereal box?

I won't even mention that you have kept up your average of one spelling or grammatical error per six words. Whoops... I did mention it after all, didn't I? Besides, you've actually EXCEEDED it.

-"Hooked on Phonics" is a product and a trademark, and as thus, should be capitalized.

-"I", of course, should ALSO be capitalized.

-It's "didn't", not "didnt".

Your mother must be SO proud of you. A mind is a terrible thing. To waste, that is, at least in your case.

C'mon, I'm waiting for something better out of you. Waiting in vain, but waiting nonetheless.

sh1twater scab

What exactly is a sh!twater scab? Would that be a scab that developed when one is actually in sh!twater? If so, where would one find this "sh!twater" so one can stay away from it?

If sh!twater scab is your way of attacking Mr. Freley, then unfortunately for you, you have miserably failed once again.

By the way, I'm not familiar with Danny's Dimploma shop, but you might want to ask them for a refund as well. A real education is invaluable and something you might want to take a serious look at.

A dumb a@@ with a Bachelors and Masters obtained outside of Danny's Dimploma shop.

For the benefit of First Officer Crunch:

Scab-
1- A worker who refuses membership in a labor union.
2- An employee who works while others are on strike; a strikebreaker.
3- A person hired to replace a striking worker.

I am in a union. Nobody is on strike. I was not hired to replace a striking worker.

Your stunning lack of knowledge of our language makes itself known yet again. I can only presume that you were trying to insult me, but if calling me something I'm not is your best effort, looks like you've failed AGAIN.

Go hijack another thread, why don't you? There are plenty of people still wishing to see you make an a$$ of yourself. I am done expending my mental energies on your sorry case.

 

[328dude]

IP, you the man. LOL

Capt's a student pilot.

 

[I.P. Freley]

I'd already come to the conclusion that crunch-boy was not quite what s/he purported to be... Thank you for the info.

This is the kind of student that I used to let put themselves into a full-on spin, since the frequent cries of "MORE RIGHT RUDDER!!" were consistently unheeded... Then I'd just sit there and say "you'd better do something, QUICK!!"

Did a beautiful job of bringing their thought processes more in line with my own, I'll tell you that!!

 

[Capt.SpongeBob]

Hey Crunch, looks like you were up pretty late last night typing your response. Doesnt your mommy get mad when you stay up past your bed time? Especially on a school night.

 

[aviatrix]

Dont bother!

Looks as if it is a wasted effort on capt crunch.
Grammar and spelling do count in this world and his time will come!

capt crunch....seriously......before you embark on any job search I would highly recommend going back to college and taking a remedial English class. I'm not trying to be cynical, but it's REALLY quite bad! There's just too much competition out there to ignore your education!!!

 

[Menace]

Good stuff!

This is a great thread! I had an enjoyable time reading it. If student pilot crunch really is a pilot (and I have my doubts), then he/she/it has been out of touch with the industry for the past year.

The funniest part of the whole thing is that after IP mocked crunch's spelling and grammer, he/she/it never gets any better at it.

Crunch, if you're reading this (and I know you are), grow up and stop acting like an idiot. You make pilots look bad. Oh yeah, go back to English class too (or in your case, two).
