Don't make me charge you for borrowing my Crystal Ball.

Not to worry, we are on the same wave link.

Now that’s a differ rant story-Uh?



See you in TEB for a cold one.

 

[On Your Six]

I am excited to be offered a job.

The pay is half of what I am making now to Captain a G550 but quality of life will be much better. Plus I can live anywhere that has airport service within 1 hour.

Great news. Do you have any idea whether you would go to the GIVSP or GV? That's a general question I have for NJI - are pilots cross-qualified on the two aircraft or can newhires exclusviely fly the GV? That being said, does NJI operate the G550 and do the GV pilots have to be cross-qualified on the new and old GVs?

Great job on getting to NJI.

 

[G550Driver]

Looks like I will be in the GIV. I have over 500 hours in the G550 but seniority is the thing at NJI. It'll probably take me 5 years to make Captain just on the GIV.

If you have a GV type rating, with difference training, you can fly the G450,G500,G550 and the GV classic. I know that NJI is getting G450s and G550s but I have no idea how they are going to staff and keep everyone trained to Part 135 standards on 3 different airplanes requiring one type.

Makes for a lot of fun going for your 135.293/297 check.

The thing about NJI that frosts us NJA guys when we think about it is simple. We were cruising along with this whole fractional thing, adding new aircraft types to the fleet and all is well. Then the Gulfstreams come along and for some reason a whole new non-union entity is created to fly these airplanes. I have heard a couple different versions of how this came to be and honestly I can say I don't know the whole truth of the matter.

But it makes us kinda mad and a little worried and it shouldn't be hard to see why. What is stop NetJets from creating another non-union branch the next time they decide to buy a new type of airplane? The answer of course is scope. Why our union allowed NJI to slip by is pretty hard to imagine.

When looking at NetJets from a historical perspective it is clear... those guys are flying our airplanes.

The reason is to avoid having union pilots. Kudos to Netjets for having the guts to create NJI.

Kudos to ASAP for filing single carrier.

So what was the big shake-up in January promised a few pages back?

We make more money and are happy, and are non union. You are broke and miserable, and have been union for YEARS. Now, who is clueless? With all due respect.
