Regions Air????

[Way2Broke]

At least they gave you some food before they screwed you. It sounds like things are getting better over there. hahaha

 

[CopilotDoug]

How else do you think they get people to sign the contract? There's enough LSD and Horse tranquilizer in there to kill an elephant!

 

[Tram]

I hope Viva does buy them and then sells them off piece by piece.....Ok so I hate to see people out of a job...but come on guys this place SUCKS

Wow man.. I mean.. C'mon.. let it go dude.. let.. it.. go...

These threads crack me up.. It's the same people saying the same things (me included) about the same airlines...

 

[shinydiscoballs]

this place is a nightmare, get some 121 time and bail out, all the smart ones do or you can be a lifer like most of them there for 28.50 as a captain.

Yeah, but you're going to fly a jetstream...whatever doesn't kill you makes you stronger!!!

If a night out with you doesn't kill you it makes you stonger! Hows that new job?

 

[Snakum]

At 70 hours a month, that something like $23,000 a year?

Geezus, that's depressing.

 

[Tram]

It's actually 75 hours a month..

hehehehe...no matter where you go, there you are. So have some fun dangit! Most towns (even many little midwest towns) have at least one microbrewery now! For them that don't, there's miller lite, or some doppelbock for a change!

As for me, well, I'm getting paid for turning dead dinosaurs into noise and hot air while searching the world for the perfect beer! My gosh, I think it's going to be a tougher job than I thought!

Hahahahahahaha!!!

 

[CopilotDoug]

Maybe not PERFECT beers

I haven't tried them yet, but the Great Lakes Brewing Company has a couple of beers with funny names...The Burning River and the Edmund Fitzgerald. It made it all the more humorous to me when I found out that Cleveland's river did burn down at one time. Who'd have thunk to name a beer after two disasters???

RegionsAir does not allow their cockpit or cabin crews to drink alcoholic beverages on layovers..... Go figure

Mid 20th Century Wages,19th Century Treatment

I was in their indoc but left after a few days. If I remember it is $19 for FO and high 20's for captain. No yearly raise. When Eagle call me the choice is obvious despite the long upgrade time. I chose not to participate in the race to the bottom.

What pilot in their right mind would want to work for an outfit like this????

 

[Canadair RJ]

Gotta love RegEx. Who else expects their crews to get paid crap, then force them to pay for their own hotels when their lack of proper maintenance causes the aircraft to be delayed. It comes to a climax when the mechanic asks where to plug in the GPU... "this GPU only produces 27 volts" ...aren't aircraft systems 28 volts? Anywho stear clear of this company at all costs. Only if BlowJets turns you down should anyone even consider interviewing with this company.

I'll pay for a room if I can share with a good looking young FA.

 

[Berkut]

a good looking young FA.

You must be lost, this is the RegionsAir thread.

That is because all the over nights are 9 hours or in some cases less. They could adopt a 12 hour rule, but that would be the same as no drinking. Ask Belch if this rule is followed. The man is a beer god! I swear he got into aviation just so that he could travel the world and drink various beers and eat dark german chocolate.

They started flying the Saab.

 

[Berkut]

I was referring to the "good looking" and "young" part.

Just curious - when you were forced or.. knew some crews who were forced to buy their own hotels.. these guys wouldn't happen to be commuters who had a MX delay in base, would they?

This thread has some truth, but as far as I can tell, it's full of alot of bunk too..

This place is a stepping stone.. they will openly tell you that in the INTERVIEW... What do you guys expect when your told "Get your time and get out" in ground school?
