Santulli's visit to SC?

[GerryG]

Wow!

I wonder what Dr. Freud would have to say about all of this?

No, chief, I just denigrated you as uneducated and unworthy. The Warrant Officers I met during my joint service tour were professional officers and technicians competent in their specialties.

You still haven't told me what TurboJet you fly.

I get it, Captain. You sound like a former Army Warrant Officer with a high school education and a built-in resentment for Commissioned Officers who's just all giddy to be flying something where the wings don't move faster than the fuselage. Give it a break, Chief.

Wrong again...but...at least you are consistently wrong there Chuck Yeager. Please keep it coming...

Gee, all those qualifications and the only job they could find was flying a 16,000 lb Cessna for $hit wages in a glorified charter company. Did these pilots have a history of DWI's or flight violations or was it just that their personalities were the best form of birth control known to man.
You gotta admit that moving from a six figure Gulfstream job to flying for NJA for peanuts is not exactly the career progression most of us would aspire to.

These guys must have screwed the pooch somewhere.

For never flying commercial, you certainly know alot.

I think I see a trend here. NJA is not a first choice company for pilots who have options. If you have Ultra pilots at NJA with over 9,000 hours of heavy time, they either screwed up somewhere and are unemployable in a good job or they are members of the geriatric set and should be thinking about a rocker and a good poop rather than flying tiny Cessnas.

EVER HEAR OF USING LOGIC AND NORMAL LANGUAGE INSTEAD OF POOR TAUNTS? Eagleflip

Maybe it's just because he doesn't want to be a union puppet with someone else pulling his strings and making all his decisions for him. Many pilots chose, as I would have, to go to NJI precisely because it was non union.

No, it's common sense.
Experience in type is only a safety factor in all aspects of aviation except at NJA.
Apparently, reading comprehension is not a requirement to be a union shill.
I was looking forward to joining a group of Gulfstream professionals at NJI. It is apparent that you are planning to dilute the experience base there and change the corporate culture from one I admire to a typical union shop.
Who would go to a union shop with all it's inherent problems when you have other options? If the TA is signed I will be going to a Fortune 500 company that operates Gulfstreams in the New York area - more pay, but I lose the NJI option of chosing where I live.
And you were calling me unprofessional...

Your screen name is even a proclamation of ignorance - no modern airplane uses a "TurboJet.".

DAMN ! I KNEW I should of chosen TurboFan for a screen name...I stand corrected.

My office is at 49,000 feet, chief. What "TurboJet" did you say you were captaining?

AND FINALLY...RE-READ THIS POST...

I'm not fishing; I apparently know more about your union than you do. I'm asking questions to help you learn more about the Teamsters you so fervently embrace. Have you found out why when you broke off from IBT Local 284 you formed Local 1108 rather than an independent union of your own?

Pretty soon now you're going to figure out that Dave V., Peter B., Paul H., Roger B., and Mitch M. weren't the idiots your current union leadership made them out to be. They got you a 13% raise and up to a $25,000 signing bonus that you threw away. You could have taken the TA and had the money while you worked on a new agreement.

Your choice was to have the money now and get more money later or to just get some money later. You chose to just get some money later, probably on about the same timetable as you would have had if you had of accepted the TA and began working on a new agreement last October.

WRONG AGAIN ! Recent history has proven you know NOTHING about what you speak of.

What more can be said that you haven't said already. The problem is, you have much to learn about civilian aviation and you are an extremely arrogant ass. This will not change, but your view of civilian aviation will, over time...whether you admit it or not. I have a feeling you will make quite the name for yourself, upon release from active duty, at any company that is so inclined to actually hire you. Have fun out there...I am done educating you. :laugh:

And SeaSpray is wrong exactly where?


Relax, just kidding. But I bet if he doesn't go to NJI, SeaSpray will have no problem finding a left seat job in a Gulfstream - just like every other Gulfstream pilot from Andrews AFB I've ever met. It will either be in some department with one of his buddies who left Andrews ahead of him or with some operator who just put on a new airplane and just has to have a military Gulfstream pilot to fly it. Military wings are magic to a lot of departments: 3M, Altria, Gulfstream, and Proctor and Gamble just to name a few.

I hear that NJI is a lock for military pilots - that their head of standards is an Army pilot from, you quessed it, Andrews AFB.

Well, glad to get that off my chest.

A former Warrant Officer maybe? Perhaps we should put in a "good" word for SS... NOT

Mikie R. is a former Chief Warrant Officer Four from the United States Army Priority Air Transport detachment at Andrews AFB. The detachment operates A G-IV in Hawaii, A G-III at Ramstein Airbase in Germany and a G550, two GV's and some straight wing twin Cessnas from Andrews AFB.

It may be a shock, but I quit counting ex-Army guys at NJI after 10 or so.

You cant swing a dead cat down there without hitting a Chinook Pilot drinking coffee.

And uh, we Army guys dont have to play "mines bigger than yours" all the time.
