Did the NJA pilots receive the same ICOM message yesterday that the company did (regarding the article)?

Yup....we got it as well.

Paraphrase...

Good post, but there's a lot of weasel wording in BK's 10Q.

"... pre-tax losses from the fractional ownership business declined $12 million in 2006 as compared with 2005."

Since NetJets lost $20 million in first quarter 2005, this means you only lost $8 million in first quarter 2006, right?

Who knows what it means... But $$ hundreds of millions are being spent on expanding or building new facilities in TEB, VNY, and Europe.

GV is right... there is a lot of weaseling.

Remember before Fractional ownership... Fearless Leader was selling ITCs (Investment Tax Credits)... with helicopters. Was explained to me but frankly it sounded like PFM. Or as GV says "weasel words" ... People making money on losses.

I am just quoting what two frustrated FOs told me. Airplanes grounded to pressure Santulli certainly cost NJA tons of money. Can you imagine what the union radicals would have done to any FOs who reported captains for unnecessarily grounding planes? To conclude that some captains were not engaging in such coercive, immoral behavior is rather silly, given what those FOs told me.

I can't stand it anymore.........

G4 use your egg, if the FO's- together- were a crew on the aircraft in question they should had called the company together and reported this.... You should had called your supervisor and reported it as an employee of NetJets..... You let us all down for not informing the company...

The FO's are blowning smoke up your APU bud... The sad part is; you as a PIC in the G Bird fell for it.......

What's really interesting is that he bothered to refute it.

Can you imagine what the company (and the feds) would do to a pilot caught writing up a bogus gripe? Who risk their career on such a STUPID move?
The only thing that was different during the "flying the pledge" evolution was that many PICs stopped "carrying" broken airplanes.

 

[gunfyter]

HOLY SMOKES!

G-IV PIC just went only 142 numbers junior to me.

Maybe I will be riding in style sooner than i thought.... LOL

Yall stop worrying, I found my tie. It was in that pocket that is only visible when your bag is in the overhead of a 737.
