JB phase 2 disqualifiers

[fifty30retard]

I understand what you're trying to do. Unfortunately you're coming across as "that pilot" who we all have flown with before. You know, the one who complains constantly, and is just bitter in general. At least for me that guy has absolutely no credibility from the moment he opens his mouth because it's nothing but vitriol and snake venom. I started tuning you out after reading 3 of your posts.

I'm not saying you have bad points. I'm saying your delivery could use some work. And frankly, even if JetBlue is exactly as bad as you say it is, it is probably better than ASA, so...if I get hired, I'm going to be happy. No offense, but I like to form my own opinions. I have several friends at JetBlue, and all of them are not only happy, but thrilled to be there. They've all been there 3-5 years, so long enough to get bitter, if they were so inclined.

You have no concept what I'm doing, and thus a perfect new hire candidate. Looking forward to laughing at your indefinite servitude in the right seat when we fly together.

That's fine. There's no shame in the right seat.

Specially at Jetblue were captains authority means nothing.

We refer to the P-3 as the "Mighty Orion".

How do you call that servitude? ALPA represents companies where 1yr FO pay is $19/hr. Criminal to a professional aviator! How do you defend ALPA's might in kicking Delta in the junk with a Comair strike only to watch Delta dismantle the company after a very calculated wait period? How about the formation of Blow Jet with ALPA members on the street under the same company? Now Blow Jet is taking the Comair flying. Oops again ALPA. So, where's the better life? Will and can management smoke you? Sure. But, the same uncertainty remains with ALPA. I agree with unionization, but ALPA is the easy way to pissing everyone off and getting nowhere. Even if you had ALPA and a merger came up with American it would be trouble. Probably more than no union. Sorry, more fuel to the fire. I held my IPad typing for too long.

Nice airplane, good pedigree. The engines are upside down but other than that..

A 250 hour comair pilot was never worth more than $19 hour. Comair was a third party contractor which typically went to the lowest bidding regional therefore comair should never have been considered a career job. If you went on strike as a third party contractor flying for a regional you had your priorities out of whack.

If you work for a company who doesn't even set its own ticket prices how the hell do you expect to dictate financial terms of a CBA. This is the problem with regionals and regional pilots. These are not career jobs, they are simply stepping stones. How many more times does someone have to explain this.

Then ALPA shouldn't represent regionals. And JBlue pilots shouldnt be looking for ALPA as the savior from management and mergers. Now. Let's go Eagles! ND blows!
