yep folks if you ever been to that infamous tree house in MQY, is the place where crapex calls headquarters. if you look close enough you might be able to find some stashed moonshine that scheduling and dispatch party after hours...

So were you the gay flight attendant that got fired from Regions?

Not only that, he can't tell a treehouse from an outhouse. I think he's probably the one that got the spoof thread on corpex getting CRJ-900's removed!

Oh well, sorry then...I wonder what got the web master wrapped up about it enough to make it go away??? I didn't see anything not pc...I wonder if the puzzle palace lurkers were afraid that the CP from coex was going to call again...

And no, I didn't start the thread that precipitated that event! I called BS on it as soon as I saw it! But some folks at coex got pretty spooled up!

God but that was funny!

I don't think there is any stashed shine there either. There is very little there at all which will remove gunge from airplanes...

hehehehe

Who is Regionsair....sounds like some fly-by-nite carrier?

They aren't even listed on AirlinePilotCentral. I'm guessing its a pretty dismal place.

Night, day, rain, snow, wind, what ever...if it is subsidized, they will go. 121 pax outfit noted for low pay, poor working conditions, high employeed turnover rate using J-32's on EAS routes to STL and a couple of old saab 340A's into CLE. Been around for a while. Noone that knows will say how or why...

Most recently noted for turning CFI's into 121 qualified people that go directly to other regionals without hanging around to upgrade.

And I've heard we have Mr. Burns as the CEO. Can anyone verify this?
 
regions air aka corparate airlines, call sign crapex oops corpex, man i really feel bad for those bastards that hang out there and swallow everything from management... but i guess they have only themselves to blame.

Dude, what's your problem with Regions? If you have a legitimate gripe then post it. But to aimlessly involve the pilots...just bad. Looking at your posts it looks like you may have never worked here. So how do you know of Regions? Did you get turned down on an interview? Did they steal your puppy from you???

If you want a second interview, we could probably line you up with one because as far as I know, we're still kidnapping pilots off the street and putting them in the right seat.

RegionsRecruiter: "Hey kid, you wanna see the inside of a plane???"
Little Billy: "Geee, sure mister! That'd be swell !"
And that was the last anyone ever saw of Billy. Some say if you look carefully, you might catch a glimps of him at the STL airport in a uniform...

Here here!

Being an ex regions fo, I'll agree with belch who i've flown with. The pilots are some of the best out there. Management is a joke. They're running an airline like a circle K in the middle of compton. You got some Horny desperate house wives working as crew scheduling, who happen to know jack S**t on anything to do with 121 rules. The CP I heard just quit on its pilots, never returns phone calls. The CEO I never once met or anybody above the CP. I hope the best for everybody there. Shinnydiscoballs happens to be a very experienced pilot and I fully agree that the HQ's is an ugly tree house, waiting to crumble down at anytime..........
 
Tree houses rock.. like.. for example.. anytime you wanna eat an apple.. you just reach out the window and joila.. apple..
 
I still think that it's an outhouse. Tree houses by definition are in trees, not near trees on nearly abandoned ramps across from a scrapyard. The crew lounge is downstairs.

And I still want to know why that one thread went away...

If you want to know where the clear, flamable liquid is, er, well that is a different matter to be discussed at one of the local watering holes near closing time...

They have to actually leave the ground for performance to be an issue.

Hey I heard you getting A models!!!! Ouch! The performance sucks good luck at V1 !

I haven't flown the B model, so I'm not sure what the difference in performance is (is it 15 more horsepower a side?) But I can tell you that climbing out of CLE the other day we were passed in both forward speed and climb by a KingAir. I thought to myself, "Ow...My pride"

been a while, but I think this is how it was--

A model is 1735 HP per side at 107% N1 (can only get this with other 1 failed)
B model is 1750 HP per side at 100% N1 (can get this all the time)

having flown both, There is a noticeable difference in performance.
 
Depends on how senior you are..

4 on 3 off is the norm..
3 on 4 off can be had..
5 on 2 off if you get stuck on reserve..

Wait 30 seconds any you will get what you want. It was the thirty seconds part that I had a problem with. If you can afford to wait, go for it. I made a mistake, because I could not afford the wait.

Yeah, I heard that bovine excrement more than once before!!! If you stay lucky you won't get a line that requires you to buy hotel rooms! Yes, they have done it...

My bet is that the three day lines are or will be a thing of the past in the not to distant future. Can't give your people a really decent QOL like that! Everyone in the puzzle palace knows that! My God, that would be halfway civilized! Next they will want more money! Holy Crap, then they might want extra money to fly outside their lines!
