Don't forget that the clock starts at brake release at SWA, and it's door closed at AAI. And an 85hr line at AAI is easily a 90-95 hour line by the end of the month. If you fly your line, and don't pick up trips, the pay increase isn't all that. Now, I know the SWA guys don't want to hear that, but it's true. Never mind the fact that a 100 plus hour line at AAI is very easy to attain if you want to simply swap trips and keep your days off. My pay increase will be about 19K this year, which is about 20K less then Id make at AAI sitting on reserve in the left seat. I think it's safe to say the "huge" pay increase myth has been dispelled. I talked to an AAI Captain the other day who has taken a roughly $60K pay cut. I'm not bashing SWA, but it is no better then any other airline, and in a lot of ways, it's a lot worse.

And you still LUV Midland. That's sad... And thanks for the 88 717s, that's instant expansion and hiring (115 new hires in Nov), while you will be stagnate due to eventual upgrades by AT pilots who should have moved over as Captains anyway. You should be ashamed, and you and your Fonzi jacket look foolish.
Bye Bye---General Lee
Are you really that clueless? I mention that you don't add anything here and you do the same crap. You aren't too bright Genny.
Lubbock and Midland, 717, AirTran upgrades, blah, blah, blah.
Just to set you straight on the upgrades, I didn't lose a single spot. The AirTran CA's were going to be senior to me anyway....whether in the left seat or right seat, so what does it matter? You really can't think your argument through can you? Which makes it a failure. Just like trying to call me out on my three day trip credit. You have no idea about our pay and it really showed on that thread. Quit embarrassing yourself and shut your pie hole.
Genny,
Let me remind you. You tried to say my 19.7 (1-21) paid less than a DL trip.
I proved to you I made DL widebody pay for that easy trip. It showed how little you know about our system. You turned and ran because you looked like a fool. Which is pretty typical actually.
As far as DL trips, I'd be glad to post more than a few narrowbody Delta lines that suck. One 12-14 hour leg to me would blow. Not interested what-so-ever. So on that, we should just agree to disagree. I wouldn't bid for it even if it was available. Redeye's to boot? No thanks. I just finished a 3-2-2. Done by 10am. Now that's my kind of schedule.
Let me know if you want me to post those DL trips.
Oh, and you really are good at ignoring points that your wrong about. Your consistent there I guess.
Ahhhh, finally the old 'kitchen sink' post where you never really say anything new. Like a broken record. I always know I'm done when you get to these long winded post about nothing.
Thanks Freeturd, but I had heard that you lost yours in Vietnam. They may be hiring over there, so it may be time for you to go back and find them. Good luck with that turdy.
Bye Bye---General Lee
