[SWA/FO]

You only need to look at your profile to find the answer to these questions. Thanks for the disrespect!

There is that blue ink again... Some of you guys on this board claim to "know me" well. I'd answer your comment by saying. If I wanted to disrespect you, I would do it directly. I would not use my profile to do it. Thats the type of guy I am... direct to the point.

But lets just say its true and "negative military" means I hate kernals, I think military guys can't think outside of the box, and they are afraid of weather. Does it really matter if I like you? NO.... It only matters if Southwest Airlines (color for effect) likes you and continues to hire military guys...which they do. Thats the good news for any military guy looking for the greatest job in aviation, today. Glad we got that cleared up.

SWA/FO,

I guess this could include a lot of posts on this page, this is the problem with our industry right now. It doesn't make a difference whether the tail of the airplane I go to fly is canyon blue, has a big U on it, a globe, a smiling eskimo, or any combination there of. We're all pilots, we aren't in competition with each other and the quicker we all figure that out the better our jobs will be. Why do we have to get into these stupid little pissing contests about which company we chose to go to work for? It really doesn't matter what color the stripes are on our uniforms, at the end of the day we're all just pilots trying to make a living doing something we love. If we could band together and sing kumbaya or something I think life would be a lot better. Just my $0.02 worth and that's about all I can afford on this payscale.

I agree 100%....Its kinda like your big brother, deep down you love him, but you sure love giving him $hit.

It doesn't make a difference whether the helmet of the team I play for is Pacific Blue, has a big Steel logo on it, a Horseshoe, a Bronco, or any combination there of. We're all football players, we aren't in competition with each other and the quicker we all figure that out the better our jobs will be.

Do you even know what Unicef actually is? Not hardly fair to drag kids down because you don't like UAL and can not enjoy some "Rivalry" like your clown SWAFO. Please tell me you ment to defame some other group rather than children.

As for flying with scabs? Haven't flown with a scab in many years but it is not that bad. They know they are f-ups and pretty much stay to themselves. How many are still around? Not too many.

I would rather sit next to a sober scab than a drunk idiot any day of the week. But we all have our preferences and I suppose you prefer drunks and naked guys. Hmmm,now that I think about it you mentioned "Broke Back" and approve of sitting in the cockpit with naked guys. So Bosely you living an alternative lifestlye? Not that there is anything WRONG with that... It just explains the tizzy you seem to get into. Oh you boys and your hissy fits.

You might be that SWA guy that had his photorama posted all over the ALPA forum? The happy fella with the dyed hair and obvious less than heterosexual tendencies.

You seem to be stuck in neutral with the "alternative talk." But as you say, "there's nothing wrong with that." If you choose to be like that, then so much better that you 32LT10 came out of the closet! you mention brokeback mountain, alternative lifestyle and, dying hair. I knew UAL was #1 in hiring minorities, but now we know that they also included "Men" such as yourself! uke: Keep working on those rudder skills 32. I'll be the one laughing at your "profits" for as long or as little as Yonited survives!:laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

BAWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA.

I'm laughing hysterically!:laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

How goes the rudder practice out of SFO? Was that you??
Or better yet, how about the two morons that got lost up in BDL?
I'm still laughing!!:laugh: :laugh: :laugh:
Rudder skills/airport diagrams, Who needs em!

You can laugh because nobody was killed.

I can't believe some of the SWA boys on this forum.

 

[JP4user]

What happened to those two shining examples in the PVD incident?

That is a lot of airplanes. Have you really been a passanger or every one you listed?

You should talk?

My point is: I was laughed at for choosing to apply and interview at SWA. I was even ridiculed even more when I chose to work there. I had no crystal ball but I could see problems at other legacy carriers even before 9/11. I was told SWA pilots work to hard and are paid too little. Well, I can tell you I don't work as hard as I did when I was in the USAF and I get paid more.

My friend are all back working hard and getting paid less! So the arrogance they portrayed has been deflated....

If they were really your "friends" they wouldn't have laughed at you.
But you showed them didn't ya? So your telling me when you left the I assume 89th you ONLY applied at SWA? Because all the other airlines worked little and paid alot...Right?

 

[Benhuntn]

KOKO

YEP! I figured it wouldn't last. Like I said I have no crystall ball but I am still working and I think I will make it to retirement for the 2nd time. I'm fying more now than ever in the AF but I am enjoying it more too!!!!!

HEY...ANYBODY....did UAL show a 2nd quarter profit or not ???? And how much? Geez....

Based on the number of hulls and lives lost, I would say our rudder skills are much better than your braking skills. Same pedal just a different pivot.

Of course this is the airline that gave you Dave Cronin and Al Haynes. You have given us drunks, exhibitionist and various other derelicts.

You forgot to mention lost wages, lost pensions and unfair hiring practices. How goes your pensions anyway 32? Are you one of the 300 hour wonder interns hired? Or you one of the unicef candidates? Maybe you're a scab.... You're probably one of those wonderful aviators who has a "gentleman's agreement" not to upgrade!
Keep up the good work there 32, you and your laughing stock of an airline are making my day!

 

[32LT10]

Bosley,

I am sorry someone said in a different post that you are not SWA but a Valujet pilot. The "whats worse than being SWA pilot" equivilant. Either way one thing you are not and that is a REAL airline pilot. I am sure you probably applied to all the airlines when you got that day laborer job at Valujet. I can see why you are so bent against UAL. You did not make it and therefore you must lash out. Go ahead, have a nice cry and think about another 20 years of driving a toy jet around for the rest of your career.

In the meantime I am off to Asia and another nice layover. Hope you enjoy your Akron layover.

Peace

737

you do realize that the only they posted a profit was because they are in talks to purchase polar air cargo. no, its true, just ask any polar pilot. they are carrying ual allready with thier huge revenue.

LMAO!! sorry to dissapoint you 32, but I never told anyone who I fly for, I'll just let you keep guessing. But I see any airline that puts a hurtin on old YO nited (which is ANY airline)is a POS in your eyes. When I talk with scabs like you its often the above rhetoric I hear. i know, you crossed the line because of this and that....All scabs say the same, and they all have the same thing in common...They are a worthless POS like yourself!
I see that you fly the 744, nice to know you are flying for less than 737 wages....Thanks for bringing our wages down!

In the meantime I am off to Asia and another nice layover. Hope you enjoy your Akron layover.

Peace

Make sure this mail in bride doesn't leave you at the alter! Keep flying those heavies at narrow body pay rates.
Now, I'm off to count my retirement, how goes yours??
