Check out the average Airbus A320 payrates around the industry before you apply....its way below....
 
Why is this on the fractionals board? Because SkyBust is located in CMH?

:rolleyes:
 
they're getting guys to interview such as myself..that hate their current employer... and some former indy guys not yet settled. basically, 121 supp, guys furlough or laid off and a couple of military right out of the war zone checking things out.

i haven't heard yet... don't know if i'll go... i am boeing man and they say you don't fly the airbus, you just button press it.
 
"Mostly one day trips with Crews home almost every night."

Throwing this statement around pisses me off. Where is home? Everyone lives in columbus i assume? Home everynight means in your bed in the house that is in your name. Home everynight at this airline might really mean in a ratty crashpad rather than in a nice holiday inn with a free breakfast in the morning waiting for you.

When did Holday Inn's start to give free breakfast?? :nuts:
 
I think he meant Express...every time i stay at a holiday inn (not express) they charge for their crappy meals.;)
 
Well, "they" don't know wtf they're talking about. having flown both the A-320 and the 737, the Bus wins in every category hands-down. Speed, climb, descent, avionics, ergonomics, passenger comfort, you name it. Now I realize the 777 is more modern than the 320. But that would be the only Boeing more modern than the Airbus.
