Job openings at Republic

[English]

Just thought I'd pass this along to those of you at Shuttle America and Chautauqua wondering what's going on in the formation of Republic. These were listed today at www.planejobs.com. There are positions for a Manager of Training and Check Airmen.

BTW, the Director of Operations job was first listed on planejobs a while back before the DO at Chautauqua went over there...

Good luck everyone.

bitter bitter

what's up with that?

 

[RIDETHELIGHTING]

Good luck CHQ against Republic. Pilots that went to Freedumb had no problem with it and there are plenty out there. We gave up a lot to stop Freedumb, I hope you guys have better success then we did.

 

[DontFeedTheBear]

freedumb

Just look what Mesa pilots gave up to crush freedum. Make sure EVERYONE at CHQ knows what happened. You can look at the Mesa Airlines pilot group board on Yahoo. It will be a lesson on voting "NO". republic will be a ploy for management to drive your pay and QOL down, Don't fall for it. Anyone that goes to republic should be deemed a scab, as in anyone who went to freedum as well.

Sincerely,
Yogi

Scabs?

Just a question?
How can you call any "potential" Republic pilots "Scabs" when you (meaning CHQ pilots) voted down the Jet for Jobs deal set by ALPA and the US Air mainline. Is the new "Republic" not just a side airline to incorporate the "Jet for jobs" deal that UsAir and ALPA presented to give their furloughed UsAir pilots somewhere to work? And if senior Republic managment doesnt work something out with Usair, will Chautauqua lose their code share with the major? If so, what is your solution to the problem? Or havent you thought that far ahead? Just curious.

 

[climbhappy]

gut check time.

sure it is an emotiional subject and many times i have spoken about realities of economic forces. well enough is enough. I ain't makin squat right now. can't afford a crash pad and last friday night because we couldn't afford tires, my wife didn't drive to pick me up in a bad rain. I slept on the concrete floor at the bid Int'l airport with my pissant captain's hat covering my eyes while all the cleaners cleaned.

this business sucks right now. the quality of life sucks, and i am sick of the whore mentality i see.

to chitauqua and shuttle pilots. tell MGT TO BLOW IT OUT THEIR EXAUST PORT. SHUT 'EM DOWN NOW...IF YOU DO BEFORE REPUBLIC IS SPOOLED UP, YOU'LL WIN....END THIS MADNESS!

 

[Networ-King]

Webslinger.....

Don't listen to Stop boy....... these guys have'nt the first clue what a fu^king scab is. You guys are so high and mighty with you POS contract that you think your helping the industry? God you must be a freaking tool man..... you guys ARE the WHORES of aviation you idiot. You guys are so low on the FU^KING pole as far as pay is concerned that Delta is Passing Comair and ASA and giving you the growth in MCO. Until you stop shi^tin in your own bed don't come across and tell others to stop underbidding you. What you, mesa, and TSA are doing is lowering the bar for EVERYONE, and yes management knows this and they are playing us all against each other. ALPA knows of Republic and they are OK with it, they were against Freedum and I can understand why......... This IS a different case then freedum and before you come out here and strart blasting me, make sure you take your FU^KING blinders off. How long have you been at CHQ? DID you PAY for your training when you went there? Well if you did then some people can call you a SCAB for lowering the bar in the aviation industry. Im not saying you are, Im just making a point. Do you understand where Im going with that or am just typing for nothing? Apples and Oranges.

And by the way...... this whole Republic thing as it pertains to the J4J's thing....... it is mandatory that whoever is the new carrier...... they have to be UNIONIZED. Which union? Dunno, but they do have to be organized. Go ahead.....blast away........

 

[Mayday911]

I am no labor lawyer but I see a great big flaw in your SCOPE clause. The language you specify states CHQ and not the holding company. According to the Republic story and what you posted above, Republic holdings is abiding by your SCOPE clause. If your SCOPE stated something like, "all flying done for the company or holding company", then they would be in violation of it.

That all being said, good luck.

Mayday

Networ-King,

I understand your frustration, but the question that I think pertinent is what you hope to accomplish by your scathing remarks about what "whores" we are.

We've been in negotiations at Chautauqua for several years now and have already turned down a contract that we believed was unfair to both our pilot group and the industry at large. We are in the process of voting to strike, and though we as a pilot group certainly do not want it to come to that, the general consensus is that we will do so if it comes to deciding between being the "bottom feeders" of the industry, as you seem to imply that we already are, and getting a reasonable set of work rules and compensation here at Chautauqua.

You and I both know that there are a lot of variables in the cost structure of an airline, and labor is only one. There are, I'm certain, a variety of reasons why we operate the flights in MCO for Delta now; For instance, the EMB is a much cheaper aircraft to purchase and, from what I understand, operate, than the CRJ. I also believe that the CRJ can not operate into Key West, for instance, like the old EMB120s could (which ComAir and ASA have chosen to retire). Yes, I admit that labor costs are one of them, but unless you've been living in a cave for the past six months, you should know that we've been trying to level that playing field for years now, and our move to strike to achieve that could cost me and many of my colleagues our jobs. Besides, last I checked, ComAir was still hiring quite a bit and ASA had only stopped to retire the EMB120s. I'm disappointed that you imply that we are such cowards. I would have thought you would applaud the fact that we are fighting so strongly to raise the bar in this industry, not lower it.

Though we have all had our differences in this industry because of cut-throat competition and post Sep 11 economic disaster, I would hope that you, like many "rival" airline pilots, would see that our fight needs encouragement, not taunts. When all is said and done, will we still be rivals? I'm certain we will be. But with your help, we will compete on efficiency, courtesy, and safety, rather than on labor costs and crummy work rules.

I hope that you'll stand united with us in our fight.

A CHQ Captain told me the other day that some clown was trying to J/S on said Captain's airplane. The idiot J/S'er said that *HE* would cross the picket line if we went on strike. Can you believe that?

 

[Brother Francis]

...these guys have'nt the first clue what a fu^king scab is....

...DID you PAY for your training when you went there? Well if you did then some people can call you a SCAB for lowering the bar in the aviation industry....

The "some people" to which networ-king refers would be equally clueless as to the definition of the "S" word

Just an observation.

 

[Networ-King]

Striker,

You post is nicely thought out and quite good in my opinion. You are absolutely right about the "some people" in the above post that are pretty clueless as to the definition of the word SCAB when it pertains to pay for training. I in no way was putting CHQ down when I said the word WHORES. I used that from stop wexford's post. He implies that others such as TSA, MESA etc... are the whores when CHQ is one of the lowest paying commuters out there. I commend you guys for trying to bring up the bottom line, but to call a guy a SCAB if he goes to Republic is just plain ignorant. I see you quals and I see that you have low time, Heck look at my total time and I consider myself low time. Now look at the guys that the J4J's thing is going to employ from USAIR that are on furlough and their hire dates are 1988. Let me put you in the same room as that guy and then you guys can figure this whole thing out. When Freedom started I had a good chance to go over there........ note my screen name....... But when I called my MEC and talked to them and all of my friends out west, they educated me about the loopholes and the practices of Mesa management and hence that idea was canned immediately. Now this Republic thing........ I have called and checked with my MEC and they had to do some digging..... well I got a call back and Republic got a thumbs up. Now am I going to sit here and listen to a few guys on this forum or am I going to trust my MEC. I'll stay informed and make an educated and well thought out decision in time. Its just sad to see people here contradicting themselves and throwing the SCAB word around like they know what the FU&K it means. Now SKULL, that guy on the jump seat...... yeah that would be a SCAB 100% and I hope to god the Captain stopped the ship, opened the door and kicked his a$$ out.

And please don't get me started on this SCOPE thing. Right now Delta is mishmashing all DCI flying between SKYWEST, ASA, COMAIR, ACA, CHQ.......mmmm I don't recall TSA doing anymore Delta crap, but at one point I was certain of it....... and they are accomplishing their goals better then ever expected...... look how everybody is fighting with each other. I am glad that you guys are taking a stand and hope it works out for you guys....... go ahead and roast away.................

Striker,

I in no way was putting CHQ down when I said the word WHORES. I used that from stop wexford's post. He implies that others such as TSA, MESA etc... are the whores when CHQ is one of the lowest paying commuters out there.

[...]

Now SKULL, that guy on the jump seat...... yeah that would be a SCAB 100% and I hope to god the Captain stopped the ship, opened the door and kicked his a$$ out.

Just remember that our contract was above average when it expired, at least for turboprops. We also have some duty rules and other QOL things that made up for the pay (I'll take a lower rate to have 12 days off a month over 10 any day). We're a contract behind everyone (and nearly three years behind on *that* one) so it's apples and oranges to say we're among the lowest paid. Technically yes, but it's not because we're bottom feeders. It's because our Neogitation process has dragged on and on and on.

As for kicking the guy off the J/S, I think they were at FL 260 when he said it. I guess timing is everything.

 

[ATR-DRIVR]

still shoulda kicked his A$$ out........

 

[Palerider957]

....cross a picket line??? WTF??

 

[lazy8s]

A few things...

#1: Maybe the CHQ training Mgr will leave to go to Republic!
That would be a bonus.....

#2: Anyone crossing the picket line should get kicked in the nuts and denied the J/S and anything else that can be denied for the rest of his/her career.

#3: It's my understanding that US Air told their union that they would sue if they did not support Republic. That's understandable, the pilots have a choice though! Republic may or may not start, either way, You do not have to fly for Republic.


that's it for now.....
