Children, please! You can't fight in here! This is group therapy for people who've had their fragile little minds warped by...well, why we are here!

Hehehehehe...I love you all but you can't have my last miller light...but I'd trade it for a Leffe Red...well, maybe...if I was about to go inside of duty time...

Hahahahahahaha!

So after reading this article, I have a question...Is somone trying to buy REGIONS, or just the SAAB operation?
Click to expand...

It would appear that way, doesn't it? I could have swore we had 4 planes in our fleet but if the newspaper said we only have 3 planes then we only have 3 planes. In Clarksburg, West Virginia you only need a 3rd grade education in order to write articles for the local newspaper.
 
WhateverYouWant - Why do you care?
 
Clarksburg is full of FBI clerical people. Retired wealth northern people love that area as well.
 
I will definitely chime in as a use to be at CrapX. Yes all you rookies, it use to be called CrapX. Care for the place, naw, couldn't care less. Care for my long-time friends (Hey Belch! Cheers!) Yes, forever. You have to earn your right to complain. It is not bestowed upon you just because you passed Bobs class. When you have flown into TBN in the middle of a level 4 thunderstorm on your second attempt at the NDB approach because you just couldn't see anything and the ADF needle just didn't work with all the lightning then you finally made it in only to land with a 30 knot cross wind, dump em off and do it again. Yes, all of my friends have done this. Tram, maybe you are one, I don't know who you are but those I know from CRAPX know why the yoke comes out of the dash on a Jetstream. It is for my friends to rest their balls on!

Ok, I’m reviewing my logbook as we speak hoping I never had to fly an airplane right after you! I must have missed this system question from Bob’s q-bank. Dang it. Hope u r doing great btw.
:laugh:

I guess it's no surprise the starched collar pilots were chosen to fly (Even dance with, if you will) the SAAB. You see, it takes a delicate and refined touch to depress the autopilot lever (pronounced leever) to the "ON" position. And the greatest of judgment is demanded so as not to place too large or small a cup in the coffee cup holder lest you wish to be a pilot with spilt coffee on his pants. These are just a couple of reasons why RegionsAir saab pilots are a proud and privelaged few and why at the end of each flight they get to command the ground crew to "Don't forget to pump the $hitter!"
 
Well, I just got my marching orders folks. I'm in the next upgrade class for the Saab. Finally, things will be run my way now. I've had to put a fake smile on during my grueling uphill battle as an FO for 5 months. But as the old saying goes: Chuck Yeager can suck it, I'm the best pilot. I'll try to remember the little people I stepped on during my climb to the top, but do not plan on any mercy in my aircraft. I run a tight ship and and as such, punishment is dished out liberally at the end of a 6 foot bamboo shoot. I like my crew to be at the airplane 2 and 3/4 hours before scheduled departure and all departures will be 45 minutes ahead of schedule (Passengers or not). You will be handed a manual of how to fly the airplane my way. And remember: there's no such thing as a stupid question but there sure are alot of stupid people with questions.

And oh yeah...just kidding. I was an FO for 8 months:laugh:
 
WhateverUWant,
I got your post before it was deleted. I don't know what you meant by it but I'll take it as a compliment.

Tram,
You'll be happy to know that effective next month pilots will have to wrestle eachother for their lines.

TaildraggerPilot,
Do you know of any places I can get a rock salt encrusted baseball bat?
 
He's gay?!? I just thought he had fabulous fashion sense.

The info that has leaked down to us grunts is as follows...50cent/hr raise (laughable when you take into account paying union dues on top of that)...75 hr guarantee dropped to 70...per deim dropped back down to $1...8 days off max...junior man before use reserves.
Whoever proposed this needs grow a spine. Any current Jetstreamer in their right mind would wipe their ass with this proposal. Who knows, maybe they actually want all of us to quit. Time to go get a Xanax...Akeem has spoken.
 
Holy $hit. I didn't think it was possible for Regions to lower the bar any further. That is just about the craziest thing I have ever seen proposed.
