NetJets--Earnings Release

[fischman]

Wrong. I hold an ATP, the problem is that I can't exercise the privileges because I can only hold a 2nd class medical. That took me off the flight deck and into the office years and years ago.

I don't see a problem.

I hear it is hard to pass the EKG part of a First Class medical without a heart. Ask the tin man.

 

[gunfyter]

And ever since he has been jealous and resentful of line Pilots....

But i was thinking more straw man (if he only had a brain) than tin man.... He does post many Strawman anti-union arguments.

 

[netjetwife]

You guys haven't heard of the modern day hybrid... It's a tin body with a straw head...

When B19 posted in 2006 that he worked at Avantair apparently he wasn't a pilot there. In 2007 he started trying to hide the fact that he was in the office (aka management) at Avantair and has since refused multiple times to say how he's connected to the industry when those he engaged in conversation asked about his employment. It's a common practice to state one's connection because it establishes credibility.

The Fudspinner Hybrid lacks a heart, a brain....and guts!

 

[Willy21]

So then he would be the tin man, scarecrow and the lion all in one. Talk about a multi-tasking manager. I am impressed. And seeing as how he is all three in one then we have less overhead.

Or maybe he is the wicked witch of the west and just pissed off that somebody dropped a house on his sister. As a result he has been driven to hang out with a bunch of flying monkeys as his cronies, aka middle management. And he could just get those ruby slippers back form those pilots his life would be so much better. I won't ruin the ending but watch out for that bucket of water.

I think maybe Braum was on to something deeper.

I just wanna know what it takes to get the center-line thrust restriction removed from your certificate if you got your ATP on a broomstick? :smash:

 

[Willy21]

If you held that knowledge then then you would also be able to see the big picture that only The Great Oz holds. If you were able to see the big picture then you would be struck dead because as a line pilot you don't posses the brain power to digest what only managment and Oz know how to digest. So pay no mind to the man behind the curtain and be on your way.. And remember, there's no place like home, there's no place like home..............

 

[brokeflyer]

yup, so there are no bad companies, only bad managers.

You have to get checked out on a mop or a zambonie.

That's so wrong they can still yank a guy's medical just because he decides to have a sex change. Honestly, you'd think the FAA would get with the times.

Courage, sister.

 

[gutshotdraw]

Dooker, that's close to home.

My former chief pilot DID have a sex change. But still has the medical. There's actually a special section of Part 61 that deals with it.....lol

Wow. Must've made for some awkward moments up front.

"So, uhm ... Jill. I was about to talk baseball, but are you still into baseball? No? How about cars, you into them? Not so much? Well, uhm ... how about 'Sex in the City' last night? Now was that hilarious or what?"

 

[gutshotdraw]

It happened after I had moved on to other things but I can imagine things in the er, ahem, cockpit were a little tense for those left behind. Since she was 6'6" 250 BEFORE the surgery, I'm......ah....never mind.
