How can I drink the Brown Kool-aid if I cant hold my food down

[johnsonrod]

If I were a AirTran pilot I wouldn't vote for it - certainly not if I were an FO. How long is that upgrade from the very bottom???? 25 years? Let the arbitrator help you out...

Stupid is as stupid does....

 

[dicko]

all I ask is if it is my leg try and let me fly it...that may be hard if you are ADHD/type A.

Jack,

When I fly with you, I'm gonna give you the full treatment;

1. The flap handle hand hover,

2. The hand on the gear lever , and my specialty

3. The hands 1 inch from the yoke when you're hand flying.

4. Making strange noises when I think it's time to do things.

It's not because I don't trust you .. It's because I think its' funny

 

[On Your Six]

Wow oys, you actually said something I agree with. This thing is a turd and I hope GK flushes it down the toilet!

Wall Street disagrees with you. The only turd is the SWAPA SLI deal, and we all know it.

The last 649 Airtran FO's are pretty junior. The "top" bottom is late 2007? Our last class before the stall was 8/2008. The best they can do is break even. ANY protected captain is a dummy for voting NO. His life is untouched for 9 years. The Arby's drive-thru will make his seat available to the seniority list from day one but will most likely lock him out of the other 7 WN domiciles since his career expectation was to be an ATL pilot.

Nope. I'm #607 out of that 649, just missed it. I'm an April 06 hire.

If you put me Date of Hire in your stack, the next junior guy to me is JP @ # 4502. That's 1,378 of your pre-9/27 pilots I'd be senior to who are now senior to ME on the list with the staple. That's 1,378 of your pilots who will upgrade ahead of me who I'll be flying with and I'm senior to them by Date of Hire. The same thing your F/O's are complaining about now. Incidentally, that's about 6 years of retirement attrition to "catch up" from where Date of Hire would place me.

It's not even CLOSE to break-even.

Most arbitration solutions protect CA seats for several years. The Frontier guys got protected for 7. That's almost as long as the 9 year fence in the AIP.

Arbitration isn't perfect, there's a lot of risks for certain, but it's hard to ignore what other recent arbitrations have done in terms of what we could reasonably expect to get. THAT'S what's got everyone wondering why we settled so low in terms of seniority.

 

[PapaWoody]

Hey Papa,

You've only got 84% of our entire company junior to you. Not enough for you as a Junior CA ?

Perhaps some Grey Puopon will make it taste better

D, with all due respect, I didn't post to complain about my seniority number on the combined list, I was just rebutting the assertion by one of your guys that a 2004 hire had 1400-1500 guys junior to him after this, and was implying that his other assertions were just as false.

Respectfully,
PapaWoody

 

[Just thinking]

Our last class before the stall was 8/2008. ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

And they just jumped 3.5 years in seniority. Windfall???? AVALANCHE!

Dicko, do whatever you want, I will be getting a 1.25 tranny override...you just better call for the checklist and give responses ver batim or we may never get out of the gate...there are passive/aggressive options for FOs...

 

[Ty Webb]

You guys are killin' me.

If this flight ever takes place, I want to sit on the jumpseat.

If you guys promise to play nice, I'll tell you about the time some crusty ol' sumbitch pushed back off the gate while I was taking a leak in the forward lav.

:laugh:

Hey Jack,

The big smiley face thingy means I was joking.

 

[madjack]

Dicko,

Sorry, I was too (I don't use those little facey things they scare me)...looking forward to flying with you (I am in LAS, great base)...

No worries. Clowns scare me. The smiley face thingies take a little piece of your manhood every time you use them. But they do sometimes prevent misunderstandings.

See you in LAS.

 

[canyonblue]

Canyon,
I noticed your avatar photo was taken from the right seat of a 737. I look forward to continuing this conversation when you fly as my FO, however something tells me you only run your mouth when sitting safely at your computer. pussie.

Well Jacko, my comment was to the moron who thinks that a 12% at AAI equals 12% at SWA. The two positions are not even close to being comparable. I would gladly take 50% at SWA instead of 12% at AAI, in fact, we have some here that have. And as far as you being my Captain, it will never happen. And by some miracle it did, I would have no problem running my mouth at you sitting three feet away.

 

[canyonblue]

You have 6000 missiles and we have 1800. Just means u can blow it up 3 times more than us. But the fallout can kill everyone.

Actually, 3.333 times more than you. Since we are all on here arguing percentages.

Oh my friend. You have been in this business too long to be this naive.
