Need 411 on Empire Air

[DogBoy]

Yeah, I got lots of F-117 time. It's a great aircraft to fly.

....never mind. I'm tired of pilots complaining all day long about their working conditions but for some reason everything is roses when they post. I don't understand the logic. Yeah, its great here, we're paid well with lots of family time. You'd be a fool to go any where else. The contracts are fair and should be signed. Come on over and be stuck for 2 years so you can see for yourself. Yippee!!! Just ask the new hire F/O that walked out of training. I'm sure he was overjoyed.

I missed that part, sorry if I jumped to a conclusion.. you work there, are you happy? Is it possible to commute their schedule on the ATR?

Thanks

i agree with what i said i am just sick of myself saying this when others don't see it that way and just go on as if life is peachy. i thought that maybe i would try something else to see if we as a group could calm downa little. this weekend i witnessed a rumor get out of hand and get people upset before the truth was found out. hopeing this new approach will allow others to make the decision for themselves and not base too much on what is said here. with this said at least those who are researching this company can see that there is definetly something wrong and should really think twice when there is a lot of other better companies out there.

bling if you typed out what i wrote i give you props for the consistancy with my spelling and grammer errors. i hold the internet for my bad typing skills.

Which rumor are you talking about? I agree, new approachs are good but distorting the truth by anyone is never benificial. How was the snowboarding?
