Link to the article can be found here.

This article is so rife with inaccuracies and ALPA chest-thumper terminology that I don't know where to begin....but here's a few good nuggets for you.

The regional operators do not have established routes, but, rather, they ride the coattails of the major airlines.

The majority of SkyWest's flights are operated as United Express, Delta Connection, United Express, Continental Express or AirTran.

Furthermore, SkyWest has been embroiled in litigation with Delta, and Delta has been withholding payments owed to SkyWest relating to irregular operation expenses (IROP). In our opinion, this is certainly not the makings of a happy marriage as this has been going on since 2007-08.
 
sounds like someone shorted SKYW... Now they need it to drop so they can collect.
 
When was the disagreement with DAL settled?

While ago? Civil Court is where you go to settle contractual disagreements.
Look DAL fired Freedom and Mesa took them to court and lost, I guess the cheapest lawyer wasn't the best value, sorry JO.
 
Why would the genny leave his job as a volunteer felcher? He does enjoy a creamy Cleveland Steamer on those long overnights, in his moms basement.

Read closely, these are your activities, not mine, but thanks for playing.
Where is the nasty, mean, rude and unapologetic basement troll?
You worried that you finally drove some poor regional guy over the edge?

Are we talking about you? I hope not. Look, never ever take this board and the banter on here seriously, it is an anonymous board meant for rumors and hiring advice.

I hope that Regional guys on here that want to move on to the legacies or where ever get what they want. The Regionals have done well off the backs of legacy BKs, and suddenly the CEOs of the Legacies are figuring out that most of those RJs (50 seaters) can't make money during high cost gas periods. In the conference call yesterday, management stated 150 50 seat RJs will be parked within the next 2 years. That's economic reality. But, hiring at the legacies is starting, and won't stop for 10 more years. Up to 15,000 legacy pilots will have to retire in the next ten also. That means a lot of the Regional pilots will get to move up to better paying jobs with better benefits, and be able to see the World if they want. That is called FANTASTIC. Are you going to apply PBR? Go get your degree and apply away. Good luck!

You see genny, I have not only a 4 year degree, but plenty of post grad work, as well as technical training. My fault was/is in being hired right before 9/11. I have had applications/resumes out prior, and have them out now. When I get hired and move to the mainline, the only thing that will change is the MFG of the plane and which side I sit on.
You on the other hand will still be sitting in your moms
basement trying to torment regional guys unfortunate enough to believe you are a mainline pilot. For that I pity you to a miniscule degree.
If you think you are immune to discovery, think again, someone wants you bad enough and has a connection or two in the Intelligence field and your ISP can be had with a few keystrokes, all via backchannel sourcing, they just have to want to find you bad enough.
The real beauty is, you have jerked enough chains and rattled enough cages to have generated at least one hater/stalker who just might have the above connections.
Enjoy looking over your shoulder.....

Dude - you need to get back on your meds.... :eek: Or these stalkers could just venture down to Hazzard County and search for the Duke boys to find GL. Doesn't take post grad work and amazing technical training to figure that out.

You need to chillax............. Anyone who takes this website so seriously is a dang fool.

I'll make sure I don't go to Idaho Falls then! I may have frustrated some on here with my superior intellect and rapier wit, but at the same time I have given well thought out advice to many. I get PMs all the time asking for advice, and they are all thankful. I enjoy that. You'd be surprised who on the Regional board has asked me, and I always give it gladly.

Look, you are mad. Mad at your lot in life, with all of your Community College degrees and what not, you still aren't where you EXPECTED you would be. Don't fret though, hiring is around the corner, and as long as you don't bring up your puerile gross out rants, you may make it through the interview (although it is suspect whether or not you'll pass any psych or MMPI exam). As I stated, there were guys in my class that were 47 years old. I bet you'll do it before or at that age. Good luck!

Btw, I am ready to give more advice to anyone, including you. Anyone who wants a second opinion, I'm ready. Most of my "slamming" days are over, unless it is defensive. Better days are around the corner for everyone. Have a great one.

Ya see genny, you still don't read so good. Not many want your advice, because taking advice from a zit encrusted internet wanna be pilot would be foolish at best. You got smacked down by the mods for your vitriolic diatribes, that is the real reason for your new found civility, nothing else nor more. The better days are gonna be for the guys who have 121 experience, your computer rants will not count, no matter how much you want it to.

Looks like you don't have many fans either PBR....

Bye Bye---General Lee
Got plenty of fans, 2 big ones behind me at work, a desk one at home, and a few in the car. If you think, I care one iota about what you or anyone else on this board thinks you would be sadly mistaken. If Jim doesn't like my banter he is always free to refute it. You are sad pathetic self absorbed troll who gets his/it's jollies yanking on other peoples chains. If people get a little too close to your truth, you go postal and get banned for a week or 2, quite predictable really. I give you about 2 weeks before you start with your nasty name calling again.
 
Because of your immature and idiotic personal attacks on someone you don't agree with.

Jim,
I have slung some of the same stuff at him, as has slung at others. While I don't agree with you, I don't have a problem with your presentation.

Great joke with the "fans." Maybe if you got on with a Major or LCC, you could buy an "air conditioning system." Anyways...... Unlike you and your puerile gross out banter, I just speak the truth about industry trends, and that makes you mad. You can't stand it, and even Jim sees it. You disagree, and you throw out gross slams. I didn't solicit Jim to back me up, he did it on his own, and it should be a wakeup call for you. You are the one needing time off this forum.

And this is what I am referring to. You somehow think that getting on with a "major or LLC is making it" and anyone who isn't there is sub-human and not worthy. You come on the regional board an lecture us poor sub human, soon to be born major airline pilots, as if some how, by the virtue of being employed by a major airline we will be redeemed. When I move on to a major, and I will, it will be for reasons other than "buying an air conditioning system". For your amusement, I "made it" , the first day I strapped on a 121 aircraft and flew the first leg off IOE, the rest is just pay enhancement. Those of us who have stepped into the arena will always know what it feels like to "play the game", unlike you, one who sits in his mothers basement banging on a keyboard in frustration, because the very thing in life you want is out of reach, it is you who is sub human, a mere poseur.....
It is you who needs a wake up call, you have been banned more times than I can remember, for your juvenile offensive rants, that's what happens when you sit in a darkened basement and hammer away, taunting the gullible. You seem to bring out the worst in members of this forum, I would hope your real life is different, but some how I doubt it.

You need some psychiatric help. I would say, on balance, your posts have been as bad or worse than GL's posts. Who cares what you fly and who you fly for? Everyone is trying to improve their own situation.

Time for everyone to be more professional and less personal. But I know that is waaaaaay too much to ask for FI.

Those videos are perfect for describing how the public sees many skilled professionals; such as pilots, teachers, and doctors. They have no idea how many hours of study, training, dedication, and sacrifice go into highly skilled professions. They take it all for granted. The reason they take it all for granted is because they have never done it. Over 60% of the public checks-out and retires from academics after high school, if they even make it that far. That is why we must not take any concessions to the XJT contract. We are not fast food workers. We sacrifice too much in our profession. Make the public pay for your services. Make the company and its major partners pass on the costs to the public for your skills. If you don't make them, it won't happen. As for the scuffle between PBR and The Generalissimo, sometimes guys just get into scuffles. When they work together in the next few years, they will probably get along swimmingly. At least they both give a sht about something besides Facebook.
 
Seriously, how many last chances are they going to give this jerk? How altruistic of him to help "all those people" get jobs at Delta with his alleged private messages. I almost fell out of my chair laughing. I'm sure candidates walk into the interview and the first question they get asked is whether they know General Lee, kind of like the Plato days. And since we just announced hiring, his claims are even more ridiculous. I'm sure a no name 7ER copilot in a company of 10,000+ has really figured out to get people hired here. Funny stuff.

Everyone here knows this clown does not live up to his ridiculous claims. They simply don't add up. Even if he is a pilot, I suspect he's a regional pilot since 90% of his 17,000 posts are trolling the regional board trying to piss people off. He has been caught so many times in his lies. He even got caught red handed with his alternate character On Your Six, and even went so far as to claim they were good friends outside the board and talk often! That's pure insanity! Go ahead and bring him back General.

Why anyone even argues with this fool is beyond me. Since the mods either can't or won't get rid of him, all we need to do is ignore him. Every post to him enables him to gain another on his idiotic quest to have the most posts on FI. If everyone just ignores him, he will have no option but to go away and find another way to entertain himself while he's allegedly furiously typing like Gollum in his hotel room in Paris or Rio.

Now of course, I just enabled him another post, where his tired, idiotic, predictable response will be to call my sexuality into question, then state that i'm not really a Delta pilot because I posted this on the regional board. Which is really ironic and dumb considering most of his posts are here, but that doesn't really matter to him.

This from Miss ASA......look, I don't care what you think. The funny part here is you ONLY comment on the Regional board, which likely means you know very little about the majors, let alone your highly suspect "DL" job. I comment on many threads in different categories because I KNOW about all of them. I am well versed in this industry, something you haven't even come close to showing yourself. You are the one slamming here, and you need to look in the mirror and take off your Expressjet hat and realize you are outmatched. And by the way I have given advice about many airlines, not just DL. I'm sure you could give plenty of advice about the CRJ and IAD and DTW bases. Good for you! Bye now!
