Delta Private Jets

[Sporto]

Not many places to go these days....

"There's a pilot shortage coming you know". Next time I hear that I just might go postal.:smash:

Seriously? No one I talk to at DPJ has heard that. When was his contract supposed to end?

 

[The Kman]

I cannot say the source. But it is at the top. His 2 year contract was to expire very soon. ATL gave him another year. Hence the paycuts.

If the company is doing so ********************ty and not making profit, why give JS another year?!

 

[The Kman]

If I were in ATL he would have had the boot a long time ago. He is sweet talking salesman that got himself another year.

For those who it applies. Uggg.

Because he can pull off lessening expenses by abusing pilots.

If JS loses his position then he will have to pay for his ho's to be flown around in the Citation X or Excel.

I'm just sayin

Did I say that out loud?

Despite DPJ not making money and more pay cuts have been implemented, JS still travels regularly to 07FA on company aircraft. What's wrong with this picture?

Perk of the job, I suppose. Kinda like how regular employees get perks like paid vacation. Oh wait! The DPJ pilots got that taken away from them. I guess the big whigs don't have to give up their private jet travel and slum it in Delta first class or coach during the tough times.

As a side note, it is my understanding that Delta Private Jets is looking to hire more pilots. Growth or attrition?

[The Kman]

I would guess both. Some growth, but attrition is high.

 

[albatros101]

Can you guys jumpseat or nonrev on DL?

 

[The Kman]

There are standard nonrev benefits. Not home enough to go anywhere. Cannot JS. Not a scheduled 121/135 air carrier. Therefore cannot participate in CASS. Hope that answers the questions.
