Crj-1000

[jegermeister]

What are you going to fly it for?

Anything less than 140 an hr is going to pull this profession down even more!

Get off your high horse and read your own contract.

The Delta Boys and girls have already agreed to how much a 100 seat jet should pay. Correct me if I'm wrong but I believe that is a 100 an hour for a senior captain.

The folks at the regionals have higher pay scales for smaller equipment.

The folks at the majors need to quit pointing fingers at the regionals, when the industry has been pissed away buy the guys at the top trying to save their own @ss.

Now I'll get off my own high horse.

 

[ACL65PILOT]

E-195 is 136.89 in 2012 and the CRJ-900 is 116.46

Like I said a 100 seater for 140 an hr. We also will have over 10% in our 401K match.

 

[McNugent]

ACL65PILOT how long ago were you at ASA?

 

[ACL65PILOT]

2007.

 

[McNugent]

interesting... So you were a part of the "problem" yourself not too long ago. $140/hour, are you serious? Big difference between what we should get paid and the reality of the market.

Don't forget where you came from, it seems that 767 and double breasted blazer went a little to your head mister.

BTW I want nothing to do with the CRJ 1000 or 900 for all that matter, but those are cards that are dealt by big bad mother D based on the decisions of your co-workers.

 

[ACL65PILOT]

Guess so.
Lots of ex ASAers here.

No, No, If you remember before he became a double breast, he sang a diff tune. While he was at ASA he was doing right, now that he is a DL D!ck he believes that people following the same career path he did are doing wrong. Funny how he's pushing to get Compass stapled, knowing if they don't, he will be on the street next year, unless they staple compass then he can put a Compass Capt. on the street.

A lot of us would like to be ex ASAers over 'there'.

However, don't look down upon us because our pay rates are not what you approve of.

I stand corrected. I must be thinking of the last contract before the merger.

Good luck at Delta. With any luck APLA will start to figure scope out, for the sake of those still pursuing an airline dream.

The double breasted blazer hasn't gone to his head. He, like quite a few others, are trying to make a difference over here and increase the amount of mainline pilot positions by a significant margin.

The fewer the mainline positions and the more RJs that are delivered by this severely weakened scope that was brought on by bankruptcy and shortsightedness, the more likely someone is bound to have a much longer stop at a lower paying position.

 

[ACL65PILOT]

I watched mainline shrink in 2001 and DCI explode. I have a lot of friends over at ASA. It is a first class operation. I have no ill will towards you. I respect your MEC Chairman as well. Five years it too long.

I know where scope got sold. I am doing my part to try and reverse that trend. We do have some headwind to this, but we are also getting some support from some unlikely individuals.
It is going to take time. Lets fight together, not separate. There are going to be times where you have to realize that for the greater good there may be some perceived and real losses on both sides.
This is about getting your jets to the mainline cert. That in turn will put you guys here and make a larger and stronger group. Only through that process will we be able to dig ourselves out of this hole.

I agree. I spent a recent flight in a 75 jumpseat talking to a 12yr NWA FO about this same issue and the conversation came to the same conclusion as your statement-the only way change will come is with a combined effort.

I am a low seniority capt. at a regional, but I am still interested in what happens with future aircraft and getting both them and myself to mainline. You may be surprised how many in my position are with you on this, the problem is young guys right now, their short-sightedness is unfortunate but I suppose to be expected.

 

[ACL65PILOT]

Yes people will cut off their nose despite their face.

I was there, I know where you can get the mindset.
I left due to the long term issues with viability of the DCI business plan.
I also was very tired of flying 1000 hrs a year to see six figures.

 

[Twisted Mind]

I agree with ACL65PILOT except for the jets on main line cert part. Lets get ALL airplanes on the main line cert. T-props included.

Then Sully wouldn't be able to blame "inexperienced regional pilots" for any plane that crashes. Mainline pilots wouldn't throw themselves under the bus...
