Just talked with management.
Asked why we're not seeing this long bragged about growth.
He said the first order of business is to align the two certificates to make them mirror images each other. Then we'll start to buy planes, so don't expect to see new planes until spring.
We are in the process of trying to put a managed 604 on but it doesn't look like it's gonna happen because the owner needs it up and running in three weeks and we just can't do it. The challengers were just removed from the JR certificate and our pilots are no longer qualified, (the ones that are left).

OK, This will be my last post!!
I'm gonna pay the $3 and switch so leave me alone!!

Why are we washing our dirty laundry on this PUBLIC FORUM ?
Would it not make better sence for us to express our views on our own forum and keep everything inhouse?

Why waste money too? Its a waste of time to work there. The solution however is simple: Citationshares, Netjets or 121.
 
JetRide happens to be a very good company to work for. Not everyone thinks 121 is all that its made out to be, and the fractionals are a good option, but I know of many pilots that don't want to be gone for a week straight. JetRide has a good management team, and they have shown a grat deal of respect for the pilot group. The pay may not top out at what NJ or citationshares does, but its not like we are paid slave wages either.

Wow, I had no idea it was that simple! If only I had pilot-savants like Ritz a few years ago, I would never have gotten myself into this HORRIBLE situation!

Don't worry I won't charge you Bright-lights. The truth hurts don't it? Life is tougher if you're stupid...

And it will never be...
 
Money isn't everything. My question is why do you care? If people are happy with their situation then who are you to ridicule them? I mean, hoenstly, I'm happy that you are pleased with your choices and hopefully they work out for you. Why do you have a problem my choices? Its not your life, you don't know my reasons for staying at Jetride, what business is it of yours? I have many good friends at all the fractionals and some at the majors, all of whom would give me a reccomendation, but I have decided that for the time being Jetride is a good place for me. Anyway, sorry you have a problem with my company, but in the end it really doesn't matter what you think, does it?

On the contrary, I am entitled to my opinion just as you are, especially since I am alumni, note here that there is nothing against Jetride but the Pinnacle side has not learned how to treat it's pilots or other employees from what I have seen so I sure hope for your benefit and the rest that Jetrides management will improve that situation. That is why we all left or are leaving when the right opportunity presents itself OR until the situation improves.

So, as an alumni, you speak from experience. Is this the case for your valuable and insightful advice regarding the difficulty of life when you're stupid?

I don't know who you are... don't really care. People have their reasons for staying or going. Whatever they may be--even if they seem silly to geniuses such as yourself--they are their own. Seems you were on the PA certificate... sounds as if things weren't too swell over there. Sorry you endured it for whatever time you did.

And, as you mentioned... you are entitled to your opinion. Of course when you espouse it with such malign intent and obvious insecurity, it makes people somewhat defensive. This is probably why you are still meddling in this thread, though. To get a rise out of people, and so you can reassure yourself that you've made a good move and we are a lot of suckers over here.

Wherever you may have gone... good luck to you, sport (or champ, or tiger, or whatever condescending name you wished to be called in return).
 
Airplanes suck,

A little melodramatic don't you think? I am just telling like it is with the Pinnacle Side and some of you have decided to take it personally. I know I pushed your buttons (you have should have seen JJets response - its been rescinded. It was what you'd expect from him and his anal probing cartoon avatar.) Like I said rather you like it or not we are all entitled to our own opinions here rather it's positive or negative. No one thinks you are a sucker that you know of so lighten up Frances.

"Sport" works for me...

Haha. Yeah, I did see his response. And I like his avatar. I think it's funny. And I don't know if it's wise to judge a person by his/her avatar.

I'm a sucker. I went into aviation thinking it was a good move! In my opinion, every pilot is.

Later, Sport.

Love, Frances.

We're not in it for the money as long the bills get paid albeit the schedule is important. That was a great retort. Sounds like my ex. Jjets avatar is hilarious.

Cheers!

Your "republican" position impresses me a lot. Post some jingoism for me before the 110th takes over! Quick!

And we have all moved to our company forum to make fun of each other and talk about company BS.
 
evidently airplanes suck is not capable of understanding what I was pointing out. my response was not against him, but he took it to himself to rebut me, thus proving my point of view correct.

now back to commercial sex...

I wasn't rebuttin' nuttin, foo. Just giving you a hard time. If you're a windrider, head over to the new forum for quick wit and bad spelling.

Evidently, I'm a retard!

Self-delusion always proves one's self correct. Evidently.
