Also, please explain to me why NJ requires 1.8 pilots more per airplane than what NBAA considers industry average. The hiring was for a lot more than just future deliveries, it was also inflated because the CBA required more pilots per plane than any other.

I'll explain it to you 19. And I don't work for a union fractional. At least, not yet. The NBAA staffing formula is for PART 91. Netjets (and all other fractionals) require more pilots per airplane BECAUSE OF THE REGULATIONS. Part 91K and Part 135 require "look-back" flight and duty rest. Part 91 (my former life) does not. Hence, the staffing model is lower for a traditional corporate operation. It has NOTHING to do with a collective bargaining agreement.
 
So just because I share the opinion of B19 Flyer, Than I must be him. Well, with that logic you, fischman, waka, brokeflyer, dimeline, Hogprint, jppt2000, etc. are all just one guy/girl. How many monitors do you have and how do you keep up with it all? Talk about a troll...

They all wish they could be as awesome as me. Just to be clear, I haven't posted in this thread except to say that responding to B19 is purely out of a morbid sickness we all seem to share.

Have at it guys and gals. I'm just munching on popcorn and being awesome. :uzi:

only MANAGEMENT can change things.

im just a line pilot, I cant make management change their ways.

only YOU can make things right. I can't change anything for you because only you are responsible for you. Plus I'm not management - not that that would make a difference either.

Please do, cause I'm tired of the fight. Please fix it.

come fly with me skanza, Il educate you like I've taught hundreds of other FO's over the last 40 years. Educate me? Or attempt to change my mind to be more like you? I doubt the former is neccessary and know the latter is not going to happen.

It's the principle.......we should be paid a fair wage. And that is why you get a union. Corporate greed causes it and that is undisputed. What about union greed? Isn't the demand for more pay a form of greed? (Can you say GM, Chrysler, and UAW wages and legacy costs?) Like I said in a recent post, if you don't like the pay, go somewhere where you do. Also, why did you take the job with "low" pay to begin with? It's not like the compensation was kept a secret from you during the hiring process. Will one of you please answer this???!!!

This is getting silly...

Get over yourself. What are you, a Lear pilot?

If B19 is truly who he says he is, he would have known this. This is yet more confirmation that he is just a mindless anti union clown that is bitter against professional pilots because he couldn't hack it himself.

I know. :cool:
 
No. YOU are wrong and deeply misinformed.

The traditional NBAA staffing model is 4.2 pilots per airplane.

The current 91K rules are based on the Part 119, non-scheduled, on demand Part 135 certificate and was based on REST rules, not those conservative rules in your CBA that add an additional 1.8 pilots per airplane.

This staffing model that pre-dates Part 91K "fractional" certificates before we got together and regulated the cowboy arrogance of the Part 91 operators which had no rules.

If YOU were there when we put these rules together for your safety, you would understand the reasoning behind it. As you weren't, and it's clear since you haven't a clue as a cockpit lawyer, you should leave the hardstuff such as this to those of us that are dedicated to keeping you safe.

Just fly your airplane and let those of us that have the courage to manage do our jobs. Without us, you wouldn't have any rest rules at all and your whining would be twice as bad as it is today.

Waka, I am who I say I am, and I do know this.

The NBAA staffing model was always based on the regs and is based on the long standing Part 135 on-demand operations model as the fractional model most closely resembles it. The information is on the website and if you are a member with a password you can view it. The formula is based on 4.2 and is corrected by various factors. I can tell you that NOTHING you will come up with using that formula will ever approach 6 pilots per airplane unless a union collective bargaining agreement is involved that forces overhiring of pilots.


You on the other hand can't believe that NJ union screwed up as bad as they did and I predicted this over a year ago. This is just the beginning, and it's horrible that pilots are being forced to make these career decisions. It is immoral with the NJ union has done, and while you and the others "applaud" the actions of the union, all I see is buckets of money being dumped needlessly because of a CBA that was way too expensive for the company.
 
Here's where the BSometer spikes. Never once have you said that management compensation has caused a company to lose money and down size. Oh the pain caused to the pilots from excessive management compensation! Only the unions greed causes pain, never poor management! Pilots, like management, are maximizers. Have you ever decried the management maxim "you don't get what you deserve, you get what you negotiate"? Answer me that one, or STFU.
 
b19, dont get so upset and unravel on us.....it's for "entertainment only".


Just go back to your job and stay off the PC...lol
 
The traditional NBAA staffing model is 4.2 pilots per airplane.

And those number would be based on "traditional" flights/flight hours per airframe per year, right? Since the fractionals all fly more than "traditional" NBAA operators, wouldn't it stand to reason that more pilots would be needed, with or without a Union?
 
Where did that number come from? Was it based upon a calculation of pilot quality of life? Why aren't we questioning the very premise of who determined that number and what their goals were? They were probably looking to comply with the legal requirements. If those legal requirements don't take into account some form of work/life balance, should we give them any validity at all? The NBAA is a trade group (a union if you will) that represents managements of business aircraft operators. Adam Smith said, in the Invisible Hand, that such trade groups exist solely to collude. True capitalists will be very skeptical of anything they do. W should all think about this before we say: "Oh gosh, the NBAA. Well then, it must be true."
 
Just fly your airplane and let those of us that have the courage to manage do our jobs. Without us, you wouldn't have any rest rules at all and your whining would be twice as bad as it is today.

Now THAT is funny!:laugh:

You are a failure as a pilot. You are spineless and a butt kisser. That is not courageous. You incessantly talking about this "courage to be in management" crap indicates that you're insecure with your cowardice. However, if it makes you feel better and raises your self-esteem, please continue.

This in no way changes the fact that you're just a mindless anti union clown that is bitter against professional pilots because you couldn't hack it himself.

More classic B19 drivel!
 
I wonder what excuse B19 makes for the coporate flight departments that have ceased operations in the last year - after all, those departments are decidedly non-union, so what gives?
