GINCHBLASTER said:We had a GJ pilot try to jumpseat a few days ago. He gets on the plane and his exact words are "Hey guys I'm a jumpseater but I got a seat in the back, just wanted to say hi." Then he turned around and started walking to his seat. Didn't tell us his name, his airline, or show any credentials. Didn't even stick around long enough for us to get a word in. We both kinda chuckle over it for a second, then asked the FA to get him back up to the cockpit. When the Captain asked him for his stuff, he handed them over as if he knew he was gonna get bounced. Better luck next time buddy.

D'Angelo said:Dont worry next time ill make sure they have some ID-90s in their bag. That way he can go get his boarding pass come back and say ill be in the back if you need me prick thanks for the free peanuts. Actually the best time to say this would be after the flight. Then watch the captain get all angry and realize theres nothing he can do about it. Hysterical. Oh sure try and call security, for someone with a valid boarding pass? I Dont think so.

The captain can have anyone removed for "safety of flight reasons."
But you are an f/o, so you don't know. Save your breath later for your inflatable date! You are wasting good oxygen!

D'Angelo said:Ha try to let that argument fly because I dont like XXX airline im not letting someone with a VALID BOARDING PASS on. Captains authority doesnt mean the ego can run wild. There must always be a checks and balances system which is what the ID-90 is for. You say thanks for the ride prick after the flight. Thats why Im saying dont even intro yourself until after the flight is over in which case the captain can do absolutely nothing!!! You can say thanks for the CHEAP ride but not free ride since the ID-90 does cost some money. Boy those ID-90s sure come in handy.
stage said:Management wants pilots to fight each other, so you and some of your closest like-minded friends tap dance on cue.
Dance puppets......DANCE!!!
stage said:Both of your jobs are more secure now from your actions (somehow).Well done!
stage said:Hey! Another puppet!
Welcome back.
punkpilot48 said:The ID-90's were not created to override capitans authority. They are just anothe one of the passes to get on board the airplane.
IFLYSIU said:How many commuters can afford to keep "several ID 90's" as backup? Using 2 passes a week for a round trip commute would be costly. That is a lot of cash tied up for any regional pilot....more so when working for less at an alter ego!
carry on.

D'Angelo said:Costly perhaps however you can always non rev on your united passes or whatever. More costly would be to get stuck every week. I highly doubt you would have to use them every week though. Just the occasional blowhard then you can wave the ID-90 after you get off the plane and tell him thanks for the ride. Also if the gate agent instructs them to take a seat just simply go and take your seat, your only doing what the agent told you to do. If captains are gonna be pricks about it simply take your seat if the agent tells you to go sit down. Otherwise you still have to check w/ the captain in but thats when the ID-90 comes in handy if he gives you any lip.
punkpilot48 said:Too bad on united you have to take your papers up to the capitan.
redbook said:Your response to a whipsaw alter ego? If you can't beat em join them!
Thanks for the tip. Let me guess...we should..hmm...move on? Right?
That is what all the g0jet guys are hoping for, but sorry, its not happening.
pilotbrain said:First of all TSA is furloughing 20 pilot that where in ground school because they were pumping up there pilots for the COEX flying, so when they did get the flying they had no work for them.
Second, you guys had five chances let me repeat that 5 chances to fly the CRJ700 and you turned it down 5 time. Grow a sack and move on with you decision like ALPA did.
The Board finds that TSA and ************************* are not operating as a single transportation system for representation purposes under the RLA for the craft or class of Pilots. Accordingly, ALPA’s application in File No. CR-6885 is converted to NMB Case No. R-7069 and dismissed.Third of all, no one give a rats ass about TSA OR G0jet. Except the 6 people on flightinfo that keep bring up the same points up. (Time to change your screen names so people think more pilot care, Move on.)And why your pilots that are being furloughed and cant be hired at G0jet, it because your pilot group never wanted the flying from the start CONCLUSION
Fourth I lessened in on your little ALPA meeting over the phone last week: sound like ALPA doesn’t support TSA on the G0jet matter any more.
stage said:So explain to me how denying a jumpseat to a go-jets guy helps a TSA pilot, o enlightened one.
I would love for somebody to deny me a jumpseat somewhere and then see his/her resume come across my desk, military or civilian. Imagine the backpeddling and buttkissing that fool would be doing in the interview :laugh:

Turkey Shoot said:I don't begrudge anyone the oppurtunity to feed his family but now those guys are costing others their jobs and there are plenty of other companies hiring right now. It's just wrong of management and the GJ pilots are "enablers" plain and simple.
So who are you FlyHiToo, FuelFlow??? Please tell us.

PCL_128 said:I'd go live on the street and beg for spare change before I'd kiss the ass of some scumbag HoJetter just because he's sitting on an interview board (never happen anyway).
"You work for HoJets, huh? Denied!"
What a weak arguement. Your showing your true BloJet colors now with a statement like that. Your pretty much an idiot now but I'll humor the second paragraph.stage said:Do you realize that your mere presence in this industry is impeding someone's ability to feed their families? Every pilot junior to you is in a worse position because you have the audacity to want to keep flying and feed your family through aviation. Some snot-nosed CFII is working for illegal immigrant wages because you denying him a chance to interview to replace you. Where is your compassion for that guy?
Don't pretend that you all arent looking out for your own best interests first. There are X number of jobs in this industry at any given time, so as long as you are still flying, some other poor sap is unemployed. If you really cared about other pilots, you would quit so they can take your jobs and feed their families. Hypocrites.

redbook said:Thank you. You prove once again that to defend g0jet you have to be legally insane.
Turkey Shoot said:What a weak arguement. Your showing your true BloJet colors now with a statement like that. Your pretty much an idiot now but I'll humor the second paragraph.
And I do look out for myself first but I am not going go help a company flout a contract and furlough other pilots. If it's the only thing out there for me to do, well thats another story. But there are plenty of jobs out there. You GJ pukes saw a chance to skirt the senority rules and took it at the expense of other guys who are being sent home.
I'll make this same argument in any crew room anywhere but I have yet to hear GJ guys defend themselves so vigorously except here. Hypocrite? Who's the scumnag DOOOOOOOOOOOOOUUUUUUUUUUUUUCHE BAGS? BloJet.
