Jetblue Seniority

[G4G5]

Yes they do. Every reserve pilot gets time and/half for every hour over 70 and the reserve gaurantee is 75. So they always get at least 5 at time/half.

You have a either an understanding problem or you are just choosing to manipulate facts to prove your point.

So every single Jetblue pilot has to fly over 70 hours? Is this mandated by the company? Or is it voluntary?

AA pilots can voluntarily fly to 83 but I chose to use contract numbers not hypothetical what if's.

Because the guys at the other airlines don't have to. It's either time or money.

You didn't answer me the other day...where is it you are furloughed from? Maybe it will explain why you have such a hard-on for us. Or better yet, when was the interview you blew?

i don't think making legit observations is a "hard on" for you.:beer:

G4, go back and compute the 5 hours over 70 for Jetblue CA at 1.5x121 and do your math again.

I come up with $9377.5/mo x 12 = $112530

The way jetblue set up the pay scale is brilliant: it caters to the natural greed of the pilot. Work more, get paid at a higher rate.

You constantly twist and ignore facts selectively to make a false statements that support your point of view.

I think the reason you are so passionate about bashing B6 that you either turned down an inteview or got rejected and have since been bashing JetBlue to make yourself feel better.

The phrase 'you don't have a dog in this fight' has been stated over and over, get over yourself and enjoy your G4/5.

Why should I go back and recalculate the numbers? According to:
http://www.airlinepilotcentral.com/content/view/51/17/
Line holder gurantee is 70 hours plain and simple.

You guys love this, we get time and a half answer. Is it guranteed?

NO IT"S NOT! So when things slow down, like they eventually will the company does not have to give it to you. Ask guys at every other major how much overtime they were getting just a few years ago in a post 9-11 enviroment

Is every pilot forced to fly over 70 hours? No! It's a personal choice, not a gurantee. Some pilots at AA chose to fly 83 or 85 hours, I choose to use contract guranteed figures. Sorry if you don't like the numbers.

I sent you a PM, good luck and enjoy.

I have been reading through this thread and just have to shake my head that some people feel obsessed to find every reason under the sun to find something wrong with jetBlue.

G4G5, you have an agenda in pushing this issue like you have. I remember the fact that you turned down B6 because you weren't given a left seat upon employment in their first year of operations. While you say you don't have any regrets about your decision, your actions surely contradict you.

Let me ask you; if you voluntarily turned your back on B6, then why for the love of Pete do you have such an obession about how B6 pilots get paid? Folks, this is a big world with a lot of different people who are motivated by a multitude of different things. If a B6 pilot doesn't like how he/she is getting compensated, then they can walk on the door and go somewhere else. However, once they do then they don't have a dog in the fight anymore and they can just STFU.

BTW, that goes for you too TonyC. Save the QOL BS about family time for someone who still believes in the tooth fairy. The way some of you hang out on this board posting nothing but crap, there must be a lot of cyber orphans and widows out there.

Bottomline, if a B6 pilot is happy with his/her situation then the rest of you ca keep your nose out of it. If B6 pilots don't like whats happening, then they can move on or work on the issues within their own ranks. Either way its none of your damn business.

...i am laughing at this one

Is that how you talk to your family? STFU, and family time is BS?

If you truly think quality of life is BS, I can better appreciate why you're so happy where you are. That's sad. What a miserable existence.
