Flying CL300 International w/ Flexjet question?

[Iam3rd]

Can't we just all hold hands and get along.......

What like nobody has ever had a bad day and just said screw it? I am just getting tired of all the NJ guys badmouthing Flex. NJ is better in this way and that way and this way and that, but come on if you haven't worked for both then how would anyone really know?

And karma was biting my ass last night when I was writing it sitting on a bed a foot off the floor and a foot shorter than I am, and it being considered an upgrade by the hotel. And no it wasn't some podunk little spot, it was the crown in HPN for 250 a night.

But I'm not Imus, I am not apologizing until Sharpton does.

Hopefully the karma police are out there somewhere, reading this.

I realize you are probably a god in the cockpit and have never made a mistake and probably forgot more about flying then most of us know.

However knowing NOTHING about a incident, then SHOOTING your mouth off on a web site that protects your idenity is chicken ******************** in the extreme.

You sir are a ASS, and a embarresment to the good people of Flexjet.

First of all I am not god in the cockpit, I have made mistakes, and I'll bet if I know half of what you think you know I would be a so-so pilot in your eyes.

Second, for the little that I do know, I know how to read and incident report, and unlike you I am not hiding my identity on these boards.

Third, you are an embarrassment to your English teacher and your buddy Sharpton.

And Fourth, yes I quoted one person but I don't believe I attacked him personally, I used the word (you) which is considered singular or plural meaning all of a group, You could take the quote out and the message doesn't change.

Exellent response.... Makes no sense, but so does most of the things you write.
I have no idea what Sharpton has to do with anything, but you run with that.

Mr. Walsh,

I think NJ guys feel they were at an inferior place prior to their contract. Now that they have it a little better, they like to rub it in a little. I don't knock them for that; they worked hard for what they got and we reaped the benefits of it in some ways. I'm just amazed at the amount of bitterness and unhappiness that still flows there, even with the big raise. Reminds me of one of my favorite quotes from Milton:

Abash'd the devil stood and felt how awful goodness is.

JetBlue is the bottom of all majors, but still has advantages over Flex. Starting pay is almost 10k better. A320 FO pay is about equal to lear captain pay starting year 2. Top rate is about 40k better. Also, more days off, extra 7% for retirement, days turns, finer control over the schedule.

Excluding first year pay, most other majors are even better.

Well, here is a 10 year total wages for both places assuming an upgrade in year 3 at both, I guess you're right, JB IS better??

JetBlue: $997,920
Flexjet: $929,016

doyle,

Just curious, but what is year 1, 2, 3, & 4 FO pay. I have started the resume process @ Flex. Thanks
