[Jack Mehoff]

you guys are awesome, grow up calm down and stop acting like angery 5th graders!

 

[Hpilot]

Great. That explains tonight why after landing it took about 40 minutes to clear 7R and taxi to terminal 4.

 

[Thedude]

You are actually using the word "props". What are you new or something

 

[Remington]

"mannaged"

Okay, each time I hear or see something that some guy does, I'm gonna start an entire thread about it condemning the entire airline (props to the a$$hole who started this thread). Don't you think some guy at your airline did something stupid today?

Jack Mehoff = virgin or zitface A$$ rammer

right, see if a regional messed up then it would be because some guy with 2000 hours was pic at the tiller. I am so tired of the mainline guys being D!ckheads and its all ok becuse they are mainline. "screw you guys I'ma go'n home!"- the great cartman

My personal fav was lil over a month ago. USair was getting pissed because it was busy and other jets were push and not him. (he was parked on an end gate) after about 5 requests to push and atc tell him to hold and would be told when to push, the USair just went ahead and started his own push. When ATC asked him what was he doing USair's response was "well everyone else is getting to push and we were tired of wait'n!" since he was already done pushing at that point ATC let him taxi out even though a few HP aircraft were cut off and one almost was backed into by USair.

Guess the almightly geezers in blue are going to show us all how to get the job done!

 

[mdanno808]

I don't believe that story at all. So, you're saying that not only did the pilot's blatantly disobey ATC, risk losing their liscenses and almost cause an accident because they wanted to push now? Not only that, that their ground crew actually almost pushed them into another aircraft? Then, on top of all of this chaos, ground cleared them to taxi without a "call this number now", or "go back to the gate idiot"? If you believe this story you are an idiot. No crew is stupid enough to disregard safety just because "it was busy and other jets were push".

Look, they just aren't used to the ramp in PHX. Of course they will screw stuff up for a few weeks. You probably would too. Heck, I goofed up some clearances when I started in PHX.

They'll get it down after a while.

If any AAA guys want to know how the PHX ramp works ask me. I'll be cool about it.

Props to USAir.....Dash 8s or 328s?

The stars tell me it will be Saab 2000s.

Riiiiight! Let's see, I was flying US Airways aircraft to PHX in 1999, and I think they were flying there 20 years before that. In fact, U pilots have been flying to PHX since before AWA was born. I doubt they need your help. But it's way cool for you to offer it.

 

[pipejockey]

I go to PHX all the time, whats the problem? It seems easy enough.

Oh I forgot, I go to the cargo ramp!!

...and come crashin' thru the kitchen door, wailing "Mommy,Mommy that big mean mainline pilot wouldn't play nice with me on Flight info.com ,,,,,WAHHH.....WAHHHH:crying: !! " Come on kid,quit feeling sorry for yourself just because your flying at a regional,will you please?

Hi, PHXFLYR. Yes, you seem like a real "joy" yourself, what with your foul language and name calling.

And, you must be right. Switching parking areas in PHX must be too much for U-east guys. Must have never happened before.

So, are you guys getting excited by the tough talk by your MEC? I smell a WINDFALL

 

[75M]

I'm pretty sure Ramp Control isn't part of the ATC system.

No,,,,but I'm sure your just droolin' at all the DOH "Bravo Sierra" eminating from yours. By the way, you might want to come up to speed on ALPA Merger Policy. The Merger Comittes are automonous and aren't controlled by either MEC. So they can spout whatever they want. In the end it will all get decided by an arbitrator, so who gives a damn who says what.But if your too dumb to figure that out on your own...... Oh,, and by the way "Happy Thanksgiving"

[mynameisjim]

Why do some pilots "get angry" with delays and such. It's part of the business, and you get paid extra for putting up with it.

So like my priest always used to say "Just let it happen; it won't hurt a bit"

 

[PHXFLYR]

[Marko Ramius]

I'm pretty sure Ramp Control isn't part of the ATC system.

At Terminal 4 in PHX, you'd have to talk to both Ramp and Ground b/c the gates that UsAirways is parking at are at the end of the B concourse which means the gates are under control of the ramp, but taxiway C runs right behind them.

 

[ivauir]

So the merger isgoing well and we are all holding hands around he campfire?

PHXFLYR

Right I really care what some fat grey hair says about me on flightinfo. Ok man all I am saying is some of you mainline guys must be so old you actually believe that you did your private ride in an A-320. You were flying at a regional at or a crappy cargo outfit at some point! So stop this senior/freshman act out at the airport and act like a professional. Everyone has to start somehwere. That doesn't make them less of a pilot. Its all part of the stepping stones. Its sad when a "26 yr old spikie haired oakley FO" has more professionalism then a senior left seater in a bus

also its really funny when the guys with the "NO-RJ'S" stickers on the flight bags need a ride up front to get home on the last fight. We have taken you every time and let it go. whos the bigger man there?

 

[OPECJet]

The stars tell me it will be Saab 2000s.

Umm.... Dream on.....

PHXFLYR

Wow, PHX, you sound pretty hostile. I imagine it's attitudes like yours that made your MEC decide to shut down your ALPA message board.

Not that you deserve an explanation, but I'm quite up-to-speed on ALPA MP, and I'm quite sure I'll be placed at the bottom. (Just as I'm quite sure that's exactly where you think I belong since I had the reprehensible judgment of flying for US Air in 1999 instead of staying at my regional and getting hired at AWA in 2005.)

See ya!
