Mesaba CRJ

[flyin backwards]

So I quess one of our crj's recieved substantial damage this morning in MLI. I quess the pinnacle ramp agent ran a tug into the wing and screwed it up pretty bad. Nice, now we have a fleet on ONE operational crjs.

If it's the winglet that's damaged, I think Bombardier has to do the repair them selves.

What's going to happen to the pilot who were suppose to fly trips in that A/C? Put on reserve, or extra days off with pay?

What's wrong "DoinTime"?.................Look up the list and decide not to keep the previous post up?
Anne Marie Stevens is the station manager.........email: [email protected]

Thought so.....

Now back to the regularly scheduled b!&^% session re. XJ's HUGE fleet of 1 operational CRJ.

 

[flyin backwards]

yep, I just rechecked and MLI is not Mesaba but 9E. Dointime needs to Do alittle research. Nice try though.

Most (75%) Pinnacle pilots weren't even around when Mesaba ran that station. Even fewer remember when it was Express before that.

Yep, keep bashing the XJ rampers.......at least they don't take out half your fleet!

:laugh:

Guess you don't remember the transition from the G-course to the Midfield term in DTW. But then again who freakin' cares?

BTW, I do remember when MLI was XJ. It was a great station then. Not too bad now but when 9E takes over a station (MLI, ERI, ELM) and gives the current employees the 'opportunity' to interview for less pay...yeah that pretty much sucks no question.

 

[Inconceivable]

I remember when MLI was an XJ station in '01

GREAT bunch of people, great to non-revs--if you happened to be non-reving to tractor town..

Yep, and it sucked for us in the Saab too. I left DTW shortly after that to be in MEM where the ramp agents do everything as they should.

A Pinnacle CRJ wing got jacked a few months ago in MSP. I'm guessing it was an XJ ramper (and not a fuel/mx/etc. truck)

Hey, it's cool if XJ rampers take out a 9E CRJ with a tug or a belt loader. That happens at least once every couple of weeks or so. However, if a 9E ramper takes out an XJ CRJ that deserves an entire thread on good old FI.

Nice thread, kids.

You guys say "half of our fleet of CRJ's" like it's some great airplane to have. If it was up to me I would take some Saab's back. The CRJ wasn't designed for what the NWA bubbas want us to do with it on those nice three hour flights. I really hope XJ gets a CRJ ALB-MSP flight that's overbooked all the time. Have fun with that group of rude bastards in ALB.

What goes around...

This thread was the inevitable response to this one.

[screwed_again]

All of our frickin' rampers suck. Shut up guys.

 

[Mel Sharples]

All the rampies are overworked and underpaid. I don't think the original intent of this thread was to slam a 9E ramper, just to point out our huge fleet of 2 is now down to 1.

NWA is to blame for all of this. We are all just the victims in this stupid game.

I guess I never got the memo when MLI made the switch. Been through there a few times over the past year but haven't noticed anything different. I do remember when LNK and ATW made the switch as well as a few southern stations that switched to Mesaba but I guess I haven't paid that much attention since then.

This happens almost every other day in Detroit by your rampers except most of the time they don't tell anyone about it and leave it for us to discover on the pre-flight............so what's your point????

 

[WMUSIGPI]

maybe we'll have to phase out the CRJ a little sooner now.
