What are the latest rumors at Comair?

[scopeCMRandASA]

Yawn... I'm trying to decide if it's even worth it to give you the one finger salute, or if God's giving you a small d!ck is punishment enough. ..!..

Truth hurts, doesn't it tough guy? The simple truth is that when you expend energy in order to complain that your airline is not classified as a major airline on a bulletin board, you have an ego problem.

I would also say because we fly major equipment. Is there a LCC board to use? How about a "we're making a profit" board? Where would you like to see Allegiant posts go?

Although Comair is a Major by DOT status, the type of posts generally associated with them are more geared for the regional board in my opinion. In reality, who gives a rats behind where a post initiates. The "new posts" link gives you them all.

Allegiant flies major equipment for commuter pay!

And you fly commuter equipment for CFI pay. All a big circle jerk, isn't it?

At least I didn't "resign or be fired" at a "commuter"!

 

[EatSleepFly]

OK, Rhoid.

Whether you want to believe I resigned, got fired, whatever is fine with me. The resignation letter is in my PRIA file, as is the training record that shows I satisfactorily completed training. I'm not ashamed that things didn't work out in the end, and leaving seemed like the right decision at the time. Was it? Time will tell. In the meantime, care to compare W2's at the end of this year?

Quit obsessing with my career and worry about what's going to happen when even more people figure out who you are.

Don't think I've ever made a big deal about being a major or not. Your comment was just way too rude so I made a rude comment back. Oh well, I'm glad you're gone too!

Screw comparing W2's, lets compare important stats like who's getting more Multi time now, me or you? HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!

Have fun in your little CE-208, I'll look down on you as I fly over high above you in the flight levels! Oh wait a minute, I'll never see YOU flying because I'll be in the hotel on layover with a hot F/A while you slave away flying around in the middle of the night!

Hey, that's cool man. To each his own. Have fun!

Didn't say you did. Chprpilot did, as do many of the CMR guys, amongst others. It was you who jumped into the fray with me, not the other way around. You are wrong, my post was not rude, but an observation, first hand. Equating someone posting an ego problem to giving a finger also entails an ego problem in itself.

Glad to be gone

I didn't say anything negative towards Comair. I was answering the guys question..

I enjoyed my time at CMR very much.. If I hadn't had the chance to fly out of my home airport, I would still be there.

Dear 410dude
Our 1st year f/o make $41/hour, as much as any other major. The pay doesn't scale up nearly as fast, but by 2nd year you are in the left seat with our current growth. I am making 3rd year capt. pay at $80/hour. I don't think there are too many regionals making 3rd year capt at that rate. I have made more at Allegiant than I ever made even after 11 years at a 'major' regional. We just negotiated pay rate increases, while every major in this country is negotiating:

1. pay cut, on top of pay cut, on top of pay cut, on top of...you get the picture?

2. just to keep thier jobs, while they go through bankruptcy.

The majors are losing XX millions of dollars A DAY because they have made BAD business decisions. One of those BAD business decisions was to agree to pay an MD80 capt $200,000/yr so he can sit on his ass on reserves, turn down every trip that comes to him and never fly. And people wonder why they are all in bankruptcy??? Basic economics, if it cost you $10 bucks to make a pair of shoes and you sell it for $5 bucks, you will LOSE MONEY!!! The majors have yet to figure this out. The airplane is the revenue generator. If the cost of flying that airplane, including the crew, cost more than the price the seats make then you will LOSE MONEY!!! The labor (the crews) and the fuel are the largest cost of any airline. Fuel costs are not controllable per se, crew costs are. If your airline can not make money paying you what they are now, what do you think they are going to do????? They are going to lower your salary regardless of what you think you ought to make.

My suggestion for you is:

a)stop being a flame-baiter, everyone here seems to think you are a child-idiot, and your act is getting old and stale.

b)stop pretending to be something you are not, if you can't have an honest avatar/profile etc. then maybe you need a different line of work, like a lawyer or politician. Providing of course that you are even really a pilot, nothing I've seen of yours so far suggests that you are.

Why is Comair cancelling their future newhire classes? Because of Bankruptcy?

Is Comair going to lose aircraft and pilots in a bankruptcy? THIS SUCKS

What are you gonna do if you end up with a female F/A on your crew?
