how do you get along with other fa's?

[LittleChickadee]

hey fa's. do you get along well with all crew members when on a trip?
have ya ever had a falling out with another fa?

i was just wondering because one of our fa's and another had a nasty disagreement and it ended up costing them both their jobs.
i cant name names of course, or give any details as this was kept hush hush.

found out thru the grapevine, and now of course its spreading like a cancer.
sooooooooooo let me know if ya have, be fascinating to hear any stories.
thanx

Fighting Flight Attendants Delay flight.

Re:getting along well with all crew members...

Hey Chickadee,

Me too, no drama in 10 years of flying and I like to think I can get along with anybody in any situation. Now I know all can't be perfect when you mix that many different personalities together and expect it to be smooth sailing for a few days but I think because of my seniority and the routes I flew religiously month to month I flew with the same pilots and f/a's for years to the same destinations and stayed on the same equipment and we even would schedule recurrent together because we all new each other and we could kinda read each other when someone was having a bad day, worried or just out of sync from the norm. When we had emergencies we would really flow like silk and it made it easier to deal with the situation at hand and if we had somebody who didn't normally fly with us it was easy for them to slide in and handle their duties without feeling situational tension because or briefings put everybody on the same page and seniority was not an issue like somebody new would think. I'm blessed with the crew members I flew with all the time because I really could trust my life in their hands without reservations.

Queen,

You look like you would be great to fly with, I didn't think anyone could smile as hard as me and look like they mean it. Great to see another "Lotto" smile out there, we all not gone yet.

Blkav8tor2003, I'm calling you out as a fake.

And what is a B1300?

 

[Doug Parker]

.

I believe that a B1300 is the Commuter version of the KingAir200 - xtra seats + cargo pod (Catpass 250)

Thanks for the info on a B1300, although I stand by what I said.

Hey JumpPilot,

When Mesa first started flying out of DEN as a UAX carry in the late 80's and early 90's they flew a Beech 1300 carrying 13 pax basically a KingAir with a baggage speed pod connected to the belly. They also flew single pilot ops in a Cessna Caravan and made an emergence landing on the highway with it and the pilot was somebody that I went to college/flightschool with. I'm old enough to have been in this business almost 21 years in all capacities from management to flight ops and accident investigation. So before you call me out as a liar please make sure that you have your fact straight. And as far as it being in my have flown category I was lucky enough to fly with some pilots who shall remain nameless, let me fly right seat on ferry flights and mx rides and that was for over two years. Things are not the same in the airlines as they were back in the day. We had agents and rampers with as much flight time as some new FO's and Mesa was pulling guys from our ramp to get hired on. I'm from the days of Larry Risley and him flying a C310 as a pilot ferry a/c to repo crews in wierd ops situations. Thanks Stall and if Jumpilot needs an actual photo I'll see if I still have a pic in front of the DEN(Stapleton) ops/gate area of one parked there.
