So there is no such thing as a "scab airline".CKJET said:Valu Jet was often referred to as Scab Jet! And before any Air-Tran guys get upset I said was. Not is still.

Nobody pays union guys 250,000 per year to right seat in anything. If they do, they're pissing their money away for nothing. You don't even need an ATP to hold that seat.n5374f said:This guy this started this post if Flamebait if any airline called him up and offered him $250,000 per year to hire into the right seat of a B747 but he had to have a scab in the right seat and a scab on the panel he would hop right out of that Cessna 172 and be their tommorrow. People make choices to be scabs and they have to live with that decision the rest of their careers. Personally I support Alpa 100% and as an ALPA member I frown upon scabs but I don't let it affect me in the cockpit.
Clyde said:Personally, no I would not. I was assuming that his question more pertained to whether or not working at an airline with scabs on the property would hurt his chances down the road, so I focused my answer towards that part of it.
However, now that the subject has been brought up, a good point is do you want to work with these people? Here are my thoughts:
Scabs cannot be trusted. Working with a scab is not too much different than working with an ex-convict, although I would probably be more sympathetic towards the ex-con. Scabs are the closest thing to sub-human existence on this planet.

Eagleflip said:Just a friendly reminder, gang... Do not post any names or links to scab lists here. Doing so gets you an immediate ride to Banville, according to the wishes of Mark, the FI Founder.
Thanks,
