Tuesday ASA Roadshow

[Beergut]

Was anybody in the ATL crew lounge for the roadshow? If you were there what was said and who said it?

SH was there and thanked us for all we do. :laugh:

Oh and he thanked us for his bonus Xmas check too.

Did you Skype him from Hanoi? That must really be awful. Say hi to Dahni for me!


Bye Bye--General Lee

How do you find the time to post so much, Mr. Lee. God bless you.

When you have no friends, sites like FI become his only social interaction with society.

All joking aside with my signature line, I really do feel sorry for General Lee/On Your Six. Around the Holidays you're supposed to spend time with family and loved ones, and it's quite obvious he won't have that luxury again this year.

I was in the IAH training center one with CT. NO news except don't hold your breath for a DEN base on the ERJ side, might not be before the third quarter. And the Unified CAL/UAL benefits should be a little better than the current CAL benefits (I'm assuming that means post-vacation pass loss etc.)

SH wasn't there. CT was and some different inflight folks and a few guys from maintenance. There was a hot little blonde taking notes though. It was a complete waste of time; no answers about potential furloughs. From the looks of it they have no idea what they are going to do. SOC this, harmonization that, synergies for this....etc. I wanted to ask why do we have so many scheduled reduced rest overnights; seems like it is becoming the new norm. New wings are coming sometime next year. Until then keep mixing the silver and gold; really? We look like Wal-Mart pilots with silver wings and gold stripes. Also, new badges sometime late spring or early summer. I got up and left.

"We're looking for additional flying all the time"
"We're doing everything we can to avoid furloughs"

.... Basically, it's everything I heard before I got furloughed the first time.

Get ready for more scheduled 8hr rr. coming down the pike.Better get those sleep banks filled before you come to work! There's two ways to deter them from doing this. See if you can figure it out!

yup... how many times do we see this over and over and over and over. They see Naps with 8.05 on the ground from the previous month.... think they are the first ones to discover that.... turn them all into RR overnights... then they start running an hour or more late... then a few months later they go back to naps...

it really is comical... I can hear it now..

SH-- hey charlie, check this out, I'm brilliant.....look at all these 8 hour naps... lets make them RR overnights...

CT-- great idea scottie, make is so

--fast forward 3 months---

CT-- Hey Scottie, why are so many flights an hour late every morning into atlanta?

SH-- its all crew delays CT, we need to ask for concessions...

CT-- Man, i wish we had a way to keep crews on duty all night to make up for the prior days delays..

SH-- Hey CT, check this out... brilliant idea... lets get some crews to stay on duty all night long that way the flights in the morning are on time.

CT-- That's brilliant scottie.. make it so

This fall Atlantic Southeast/ExpressJet Airlines began the Professional Pilot Program in which we educated University flight students about what to expect once they begin a career in the airline industry. For the Fall 2011 semester we presented "The Day and the Life of a Regional Pilot". We used a series of video's, pilot testimonials and airline terminology. Our spring presentation is called "Being a Professional Pilot". It is focusing on everything from dress code, ethics, social media, to being a professional when you're out of uniform, how to strengthen yourself as a professional and how to prepare for an airline interview. We hope to capture video testimonials from our Atlantic Southeast/ExpressJet CRJ/ERJ pilots on Wednesday, December 14th in the A-Tech Hangar. We request that you be in uniform looking like the sharp pilots that the industry knows.
