Regions Air????

[CopilotDoug]

We are not getting anything for a while.. per the FAA..

Dude, we'll head over to the junkyard and get one of those old 1985 Family Truckster Station Wagons, paint RegionsAir on the side and take passengers back and forth to the outstations at 85mph!!! That could bump up our completion factor

 

[suupah]

What is there to jump on? Regarding the completion factor performance, it was in the Parkersburg newspaper so I'd say that it's fair game for public discussion. To my understanding, Continental is onboard with the changes Regions is implementing. We've got a base manager onsite now and we have a fourth plane. The biggest change that needs to take place is having our own mx team onsite in CLE, which may be a week or two away. So until then, we're stuck with outsourced mx and when you don't have a contract with said outsourced agency, you fall to the bottom of their priority list and they MIGHT get to your broken plane within 2-3 hours of your call. By the way, was 148SD a former Colgan bird?

118sd was. we never had 148sd. 118 was the queen of the fleet! as the other pilots on here can attest to

Do the Saabs ever work the kinks out, for the most part? Or do you just keep an open MEL list and renew it every couple of days?

 

[cjcpilot]

The MELs can be fixed, but they will just be replaced by another, and then back to the original....

 

[Berkut]

The Saabs are an absolute freaking MX nightmare. Junk.

 

[CopilotDoug]

well...they might be a mx nightmare and absolute junk, but...what was the rest you said?

 

[ContractFlyer]

This entire airline is a mx nightmare, management nightmare and pretty much a joke. Have you checked out some of the cabin "babes"? Looks like they have been recruiting in the trailer parks. Ok, they have 2 or 3 that I would take home....

 

[Foxcow]

There is.. Just search DOT EAS bids. They'll all pop up

Are you cranky because you are not on their "Seek & Destroy" list???

Yeh Doug, same people, same blah blah blah, each time.. Yet none of them will ever tell you who they really are, when they worked here, etc..

It's nice to see people with such large testicles chose to remain nameless..

 

[CopilotDoug]

Amen Bruthuh Tram!

That's one thing that should not be tolerated: Anonymity, and rumors! By the way, did you hear we might be brining some Saabs to STL???

BoilerUP - proud lowly 3C Ground Service Agent and Corpex furloughee!

Anybody know where the guy that commuted from California to STL that liked to play Earth, Wind & Fire on the PA while people were boarding went to? Can't remember his name but he was cool as hell...

Don't worry though, CF. We warned the last pilot who was interested in doing the ole' mattress dance with a group of 5 or 6 of the FA's (At once mind you) and the outcome wasn't pretty. When he came in the next day, we all thought a few of the rampers roughed him up, what with half his hair pulled out and a few teeth missing.

 

[ContractFlyer]

Don't think there are 4 or 5 here that are worth "dancing with" well maybe Clint!

 

[CopilotDoug]

Geeeewwwwww! That is the grossest thing I've heard in my life! But it doesn't matter because he's gone now...

 

[ContractFlyer]

Dougie, all you gotta do is ask who I am....no problem. I have no secrets...

This isn't the pilot who zinged us on tower the other day for returning to the gate is it?!? Cause that was pretty funny, and by funny, I mean no one was laughing

 

[Tram]

Who are you contractflyer?

 

[ContractFlyer]

I hope that not too many folks at Regions lose their jobs with the infor on dot.gov about Regions not getting the jamestown and Bradford routes. It appears that CO is not very happy... I am not with Regions anymore... I was...i quit.....it sucked
