I carry a guitar. If you see me, please approach me and you can explain how unprofessional I look. The opinions of FI.COM posters are very important to me.

Professionalism or lack thereof aside, is carrying a guitar not a hassle? I mean, I won't even carry my laptops because of the smurf police, let alone a guitar.

A 170 or 190 is the modern day replacement of the old DC-9. There is NO way a regional should be flying this jet. This should be kept for mainline and if required we should fly these under different work rules and pay...but under NO circumstances should we allow scope to be violated and have regional carriers fly this jet!!

Baja.

Yes, it is a pain. The only time it is not a pain is on the fifteen+ hour layover when I have time to kill. Then it is worth it. Now I have the added burden of knowing that some people might look at me and think I am unprofessional.

That's what we said about XJ flying the Avro...That plane drove hard nosed mainline guys nuts!

Sorry for the thread drift...back to skateboarders and guitar players. Party on dude!

I once rode a foldiong bicycle through the cote de zur airport in nice... It was fun

I also saw a comair crew wearing a delta uniform once.

AND YES WE HAVE RJ's AT JETBLUE

A bunch of shiny new jets that pay $94 in the left seat and $50ish in the right.. All these former regional guys come from their life of misery at mesa etc.. and see that $50,000 w2 and just nut one off right there in their pants..

Heck thats a $25,000 raise..

while the rest of us are just trying to figure out a way to support a household, wife, and 3 kids on $100k a year gross.

If you make less than 100k in this profession, have over 4000 hours, and are content with your career choice than you are a true fool

You need one of these. Not much bigger than an unprofessional Tennis racket, and you can play in a lot of places without pissing anyone off except those who wear their hat while taking a crap :cartman: hardly ever turn on the tube any more:

Add a Line 6 pocket Pod and you have way better effects plus can use an external power adapter and play with your MP3 player or laptop.

We need to put in end to this and start a "is it ok to have skateboard or not poll." Who's on it? We can also have one for guitars.

 

[sayagain?]

You must be a BOB.

I got in a bit of trouble a year ago for calling the Great Lakes ramp in DEN a name. Ramp asked us to hold short of the "commuter ramp" after I'd sat at our gate watching just about every Great Lakes pilot walk under the nose of our airplane from the crewroom they have somewhere down under the concourse out to the planes they operate wherever they go. They all seemed to be carrying backpacks and I pointed this out to my captain. When asked to hold short of the "commuter ramp" by the ramp controller, I responded that we would hold short of the "backpack ramp".. but some were not as amused as my captain and I were... I still think these guys looked like goofballs but I guess that's where our profession is being taken by the new generation of LCC pilots and the commuter guys/gals who bitch about low pay but play the part of flip flop wearing college kids in semi-sort of pilot uniforms.... Thanks guys.. skate on dudes...
