NetJets In-House Fighting Championship thread

[Flashbang]

How come every single NetJets inquiry thread gets hijacked and there's bitter fighting on it over something completely not related to the topic?

Here's your thread that's specifically dedicated to NetJets In-House Fighting Championship. Now come on ladies and gents.... make this be the longest thread ever on flightinfo. Duke it out!

Let me be the first to throw some fuel to start this fire, although I am truly curious about this particular topic.

- BBJ pay vs. every other airplane pay

How come there's so much pay disparity between BBJ's and other aircraft? Who negotiated this POS?? Are BBJ pilots supportive of a strike?

After you answer my question, please use this thread to bash each other back and forth to your heart's content and make this the longest thread in flightinfo's history.

what's netjets?

A complete and total sh!t hole dominated by fifedoms, incompetence and blatant ignorance.
That aside its a Fractional ownership company. We sell shares of corporate jets, sort of like a time share.

You've heard the old saying about the certainties in life,

Death, Taxes, ########### and Marquis card holders!! Ha-ha!

Because the BBJ pay had to be negotiated after the last contract was ratified in 1998. The company could not operate those planes until the salary was negotiated. The union had leverage. The company wanted the planes, the pilots wanted a higher salary. The company agreed to start a BBJ Captain at $135k/year.

Yes, the BBJ pilots are supportive of a strike, if that's what it takes to get the contract the majority of pilots want. A BBJ pilot is one of our negotiators. A BBJ pilot is chair of our Compliance Committee.

This thread has one hell of a long way to go to be the longest... check out under 135's at the bashing Silverhawk aviation in LNK is taking. 17 pages and counting, and that's only on one of the bashing threads that place is taking.
Godspeed, May you always have a tailwind... (at your skirt).

Nope. FN FAL currently holds that distinction, if you can call it that.

Netjets is no different than any other aviation company

Netjets is no different than any other aviation company.

It is the same wherever you go....

some good people, policies, pilots, etc.
some bad people, policies, pilots, etc.
some confused people, policies, pilots, etc.
some improving people, policies, pilots, etc.

You read more about Netjets than other companies on this board purely because Netjets has 10-times more employees than most aviation companies.

To post something negative just to bait others into a fight is counterproductive.

To post something negative in an effort to fix it is better.

To post something positive may help people have a better opinion of you and the company you work for. It may even increase business, profits, and your ability to earn what you think you deserve.

Did you ever think that management may listen to you better when you have a positive attitude? No one wants to listen or reposnd to someone who is negative.

We all want more. Support each other and it may happen sooner.
