...or at least a place where the pilots can actually spell Purdue!turn&pull said:As a Regional Cpt/Check-airman there is no way I would take a job at JB only to take a 40k pay cut and then upgrade to the 190 and make less than I am making right now. With those pay rates you better start shopping for pilots at Perdue.

What did Neeleman do with WestJet?
What about the computer reservation system?
Has he EVER stood by anything that he has started?
His track record speaks for itself.
5% of JBLU's current market cap is still $120,000,000. 00
Not a bad profit for 5 years worth of work. Now I know that he just signed an extension, he's contracted all the way out to 2008 or 2009. That's another 5 years, my guess is that's when he says Adios. By year 10, B6 will no longer be a start up and will start to feel some of the pain that al the other airlines feel.
I read Nuts too talk about kool Aid
Somebody needs a drug test.jetblue320 said:I have met (and know quite well FYI) the man and he's not in this for the money.
Well, actually no I don't. If you like taking it up the rear, stay where you are. I am sure there will be many of the 10000 applicants that will be chomping at the bit to start class at JB. I have only heard of 2 or 3 (at this forum anyway) that are no longer interested. I think maybe YOU need a drug test.embdrvr said:Somebody needs a drug test.
On the recruiting issue I predict JB will have no problem hiring from the ranks at Mesa. They are well qualified. After all they are quite adept at grabbing their ankles and staring at the floor while ...........
Well you get my drift.
I am not bashing B6jetblue320 said:Morris=Sold (he was a co-founder)
Westjet=Left/Quit (he was more or less a Consultant)
Open Skies=Sold (he was a co-founder, and JB uses it as well as Westjet and Airtran and a few others)
And yes, he stands by Jetblue, very strongly I might add. He doesn't need the money for selling out JB, he already has more than 120 million anyway. Like I said in my previous post, I have met (and know quite well FYI) the man and he's not in this for the money. And if you read Nuts "too" I will assume you read Flying High. Your take on it is your opinion and you are entitled to that. I just happen to think you are wrong, that's all. If you end up being right, I am happy for you. That would make me wrong, and guess what, that's OK too. Been there before and I am sure I will be there again. But one thing that ALL of you (not just you G4G5) don't understand is that if Jetblue went away tomorrow, I would still be happy with what we have accomplished and with the money I have made so far. That doesn't mean that I don't care about the future, it just means I am happy with the present and past and have no plans to be paranoid about the future. In other words, when will you Jetblue bashers realize that you can't rattle us?
C yaaa
With a 150+ million and being 50 years old, I would start to have a series of wives that were taller, younger and blonder than the previous. That would insure having to raise more capital for my ventures! Gotta go. My short blonde wife just woke up!G4G5 said:What I am saying is, if I was 50 years old with $150+ million. I would retire. What would you do?
