Sun shining on Midwest?

[resistance]

I love to hear from these two faced pilots. They boast one day that their airline is the best one day and a couple years down the road their bitchin' how bad their company sucks. Remember the list of defunct carriers out there since 1978 and look in the mirror...your carrier can be next.

By the way incase most of our viewer have forgotten....AirTran aka. Valuejet is an airline stacked high with Eastern Scabs. Just look at their pilot's senority list and then match it to ALPA's scab sheet.

By the way it's not about the "iron" your flyin' but the size of the check and if it clears!!

I love it when "commuter" pilots (like Dieterly and resistance) try to justify their existance on this earth by the bullsh!t they post on this board.

I'll just ignore Dieterly completely, since he's already been exposed as a fraud and "clapped out" loser.

As far as resistance's comments go...it's that same old, tired old, BIG NEWS story. I guess you go about comparing the seniority lists at CAL, DAL, UAL, etc with ALPA's "list", too. I think they are "stacked high" as well. What is the significance of that? We may even have a few here. Maybe I should quit my major airline job because of it.

Also, if you're measuring the "man" by the size of their paycheck, I think you come up WAY short with your RJ commuter flying paycheck, stud.

exposed as a fraud

Not sure what you mean with that statement, maybe you care to explain?

I think things have strayed from the original theme of this post: "Sun setting on Midwest." Does anyone else have input on that subject?

 

[Ty Webb]

Don't bother going slowly for me, pal, I just wanted to give you the opportunity to step on your crank a little, which I knew you wouldn;t be able to resist doing.


you are saying Comair is not a Major 'cause they are "only" flying commuter a/c's.

No, buddy, a "major" has more to do with than just that. SWA is a major, to state one obvious example, widebody doesn't even figure into it . . . AWA is a major, Alaska, ATA are all majors. None operate widebodies (with the exception of ATA having a few L-1011's on government charters).

So what kind of widebodys will Valuejet, sorry Airtran have when they finally break into the $1 Bill (if they do) mark?

Ah, here we go again, the valujet thing again. Thought so. Re-read some of the other threads to find out why the AirTran of today has very little in common with VJ, I'm not going to bother with that one.

Or are you saying if Comair had a bunch of old clappped out dc-9's, they would then be a MAJOR airline?

Don;t know what rock you have been living under, but we are down to a handful of DC9 (5, I think) and they will all be gone by October. Now, if you want to talk about clap-trap, let's start a 717 versus RJ thread, I'm sure that one will be interesting- having commuted in thefront and back of the RJ's Air Wisconsin operates for us, the subject in the back seems to be how small and cramped RJ's are, and the subject in the front seems to be "How can I get on with you guys?".

So, Dieterly, I think what this whole thing comes down to is that you have a small penis and a small paycheck, and are trying to vent your anger about those problems in the wrong forum. Here's a quarter . . . .. call someone who cares.

just to clarified 1 thing here, i always thought if an airline that has over 1 billion in revenue, they will be classified as MAJOR.

am i right?

secondly, i think you have an attitude problem and you are a disgrace amongst the entire airtran crew.

Midwest airlines, connect, express....

I've been part of the ME thing(connect) for 5 years and I must agree with alot of the things I've read:
Mangament VERY slow to react to changing environment.
Management-Labor relations SUCK.
Most pilots at Connect trying to leave yesterday (more so than normal)
Midwest on the verge of something but nobody know's if it's good or bad.

The fact that MEH screwed up the quarterly report is a great indicator to those of you that don't work here how things are done at the 'cookie palace'.

I can't speak for the Midwest Airline guys cause I'm at Connect but I'm sure it's not much different. Maybe it is, anyone, anyone?

Why, thank you very little. And, please do tell, what sort of a carrier would claim you as one of their pilots? Obviously, you're not a native English speaker (or have suffered some sort of head injury), but please try to spell my name correctly next time you wish to insult me. It's not that hard . . . W-e-b-b.

 

[iluvetops]

ty webb

so what if i am not a native english speaker!!

let me guess how many languages you can speak......
nothing else besides english.

poor you

 

[Ty Webb]

Actually, I was making an allowance for you being a non-English speaker, otherwise, I was going to have to go with the head-injury assumption.

I can get by in three languages.

So, I say again, who do you work for? Come on, just say it . . . . .


I smell a FlightSim brat on Mommy's computer.

 

[Dieterly]

you have a small penis and a small paycheck

Can't really comment about my penis, but I know for sure my F/O paycheck at my MAJOR airline is about same as airtran CA paycheck.

BTW; what a hell has my penis size to do with your definition of a major airline?

 

[trainerjet]

Simply IGNORE Dieterly....the Imposter. He is NOT a major airline pilot. But alas, he is just a kid who is full of sh!t. Been busted on here already, and continues to believe we are all idiots, evidently.

Oh, and Mr. D....even a cursory glance at any of several websites that publish airline contracts would point out the error(s) of your last post.

What a putz.

Okay.. you made a statement and I want to see you back it up. I can't stand when people make these statements that are utter B.S., and nobody calls them on it. Well I'm calling you on it.

I'm looking at both lists that you mention above. If you REALLY want to impress everyone... tell us how many are on the AirTran seniority list?? Again.. I have both lists , how many is "STACKED HIGH"?

I will bet you won't bother to reply and/or know the answer to this simple question because I KNOW the correct answer and if that is your definition of "STACKED HIGH", your wife or girlfriend must really be getting the "short" stack. (BTW - its less than 20 out of approximately 800.... YES....LESS THAN TWENTY OUT OF EIGHT HUNDRED!!).

So give us YOUR count...

Finally.. the scab list pilots that are at AirTran (I've flown with several) are better people and pilots than you probably could ever hope to be. Many of them also busted their @ss to keep this airline together long enough to become what it is today. On behalf of them... you can KMA!

Well I stopped at about 100 of the seniority list and I'm at 53 scabs. I know there is a very high ratio of scumbags at the beginning of that list but not quite sub twenties in the whole company as you state.

If there is only 27 more in the next 700 pilots it would be ten percent of the seniority list are scabs. I would classify this as stacked high. The only other airline of note which has as high a ratio would be CAL and they are suppose to be forgiven (yeah right).

Your numbers are 100% absolutely incorrect. I don't know what lists you have ... but they are not correct. Under your numbers (53 out of the top 100 pilots) every other person would be on the scab list. I'm sorry... but that is your facts are wrong. There are 19 in the company currently flying the line folks.

Nice try though.

My only axe to grind is bogus info. Numbers like that are bogus info. I'm finished with this MidWest Airlines thread.

Facts are the facts.. and I've got them. And the glaring fact is that even if there were 60 in the whole company..... 60 out of 800+ equals ... well it equals that it kicks @ss to be at AirTran right now.

Bye.
