Fabulous FJ uniforms...

Thread hijack!
LS (or anyone else), Can you remember the other speeds in "Spaceballs"?

^ wow, did you miss the point.

No, I didn't miss it at all. What I didn't get is why you felt the need to post that crap in a thread where we're all trying to have a little fun mocking Kenn's keen fashion sense. It would be great if we can find some common ground and just get along for a while.

You guys that just keep beating the drum are giving KR exactly what he wants. Implying that Kenn is about to tape the FJ pilot group is not a good way to build a relationship.

But just think how good that outfit would look with a big ol' Teamsters belt buckle! And that tie color is perfectly accessorized with a 2X4.

I recently noticed a Flex pilot with cowboy boots.

Is that allowed with your current uniform? Thats a no no with Flight options pilots.

Quite a few guys wear ropers. It's fine as long as they're polished and in good condition. I do know of one instance where black Velcro sneakers were strongly discouraged.

How about Lucchese? Sounds like fine Italian leather, but they had to go even through no stitching was visible.

"where we're all trying to have a little fun mocking Kenn's keen fashion sense." If that's all it is, that you're ok with the uniform & you're just having a little fun, then that's good for you. I have no issue with that, especially since I started this thread.

"You guys that just keep beating the drum are giving KR exactly what he wants." I don't understand this part. I'm identifying the multiple changes at the old FJ & I'm promoting unionism. How is that giving uncle anything at all, let alone what he wants?

"Implying that Kenn is about to tape the FJ pilot group is not a good way to build a relationship." I don't recall writing that, but I'm certain others have. But let me ask you this as plainly as I can, without any analogies: Right now, 4 former FO pilots are headed to class on the L45. I've heard there are more on the way, & soon. For now, I believe it's: one former citation x captain, two former phenom captains, & one beechjet sic. Each of the former captains were approximately 14, 15 year employees & they're keeping their current wages.

If you don't have a copy of our contract, go to airlinepilotcentral.com & look up the wages & compare them to the L45 FO's at FJ.

There are differences in the number of days we each work & benefits, granted. But looking at those base pay scales: Is there a difference? What is it? Is it minor or substantial?

If there is a difference, is that ok with you? If ever, when will it not be ok?

The pilot from the beechjet is a PIC with a hire date of 5/1/2000.

Doubt they came over with the intention of staying right seaters in the Lr40 for too long.

I don't think the numbers on APC are up to date. They don't reflect the two "contract extension" raises we received since the CBA.
