Could say the same for you.

I'm no fan of HoJets...but some of you ALPA chest thumpers sound like wannabe gang members sometimes. All you're missing is a tall shirt and your pants down to your ass...

Because I noticed a guy that was wearing a pin to a union to whom he didn't belong? That makes me a chest thumper? Riiiiight. I just found it kind of odd considering the fact that it's a GoJetter wearing one of those things considering the history behind the company, so I decided to share my experience. If I'm "thumping" my chest, so be it.
 
Nothing more satisfying than denying a go-jet jumpseater trying to get from STL-MSP. They're not on our jumpseat list and still try to weasel their way on board.
 
Just a comment on the whole controversy, don't want to start any fights but just looking at the situation:

It's too bad the TSA pilots did not vote "yes", instead of "no" and thereby turning down the "one seniority list" for the two airlines when they had the chance..That would have ended the Teamsters versus ALPA, mud slinging, name calling controversy over this whole situation. I think at the time Gojet only had about 30 pilots and TSA had about 500-600 pilots.
 
A gojet pilot couldn't have put an ALPA pin on his tie because the pin would have burned his skin off when he touched it.
 
It's too fracking bad that AMR, parent company to the worlds largest, most disfunctional airline has to tell it's vendors what kind of equipment they are allowed to operated-even if it is for another carrier!

Heil AA!!!
 
It was a joke....I didnt sell my password...a friend of mine used to work with me at a SoCal company flying a MU2..He went to work at GJet and I told him about the bad rap the GJetters get on this website.

He used my password to get on and obviously started to defend them.

I would like to see companies like Pinnacle take our industry back because I don't want to fly freight the rest of my life and I can't survive on a twenty dollar an hour first officer's wage.

Quite a bit more complicated than that. A snapshot of the situation is not a good representation of what happened before the offer of integration, and to also know at what cost the TSA guys would have to give up at integration.

And this is from a guy that has no dog in the fight.
