Short runway

[captold]

Too bad about the Flex Jet Lear that over ran the runway at CGF on Monday. Glad no one got hurt. Wonder what protection the crew has without a union backing them up?

Well aren't you an idiot.

1st- you're using this incident/accident for union propaganda. Not cool man

2nd- yes, this would be a case where having a union would be a good thing, and I'm fortunate to have one because that could very well be me someday

If the pilots were not to blame, good management will not penalize them. If they were to blame, they should be penalized/terminated. The only reason for a union is if management is bad, which I suspect is not the case at Flex. And we all know unions protect the worst pilots among us.

G4 and the hard core union guys we have in this forum remind me of the Israelis and Palestinians.

Someone throws a rock or fires a shot and the cease-fire gets broken... Here Mr. G4 just threw a rock at an Israeli tank ( or in this case a union tank)

As for the rest of us, go grab a beer and wait for the fireworks. This is going to be a good one

Guess there is no reason to wait for the professionals at the NTSB to make a statement. The Sheriff's department is apparently now expert at all things aviation.

Classy...real classy....

After all of 6 posts, this is all you have to offer?

Congratulations that you love paying union dues and believe they are going to save your sorry ass.

Forget about how this ^^ union-buster tries to twist things around.

Fact is, without a union, these two pilots are out there, on their own in dealing with this problem. My heart goes out to them. There but for the grace of god go each of us.

That was one of the dumbest articles i've read in a long time, not including anything about the government of course.

Wow. Just wow.

I've read most of your posts G and find that you are (usually) fairly well balanced in your opposing views to union representation.

But this statement, assuming it wasn't intended purely as flame bait, is ignorant.
