2014 Pilot Discussion

Who posted it?

Mike?

 
Your comments on it...."  Third or fourth opportunity to comment....
 
If you didn't post it then it would be reasonable to expect you would have no reservation of simply commenting on it.  

 

[EastUS1]

... since I first saw it from your post.

Frankly; I'm no fan of any of "you'se" finding yourselves in any hot water from merely infantile idiocy, but "I first saw it from your post" and "Who posted it?" Seriously? Aww! How truly "cute" is that? Nice try. Are you now at all even suggesting that countless people didn't clearly see the original poster's now-magically-gone nonsense, as well as supportive comments, and at least some don't likely have copies and available proof of it? Smarmy pretense towards being at all excessively "clever" generally ill-suits those above the age of at most 16, just sayin'.

T bone likes Mexico like you. Ronnie Reagan too.
Remarkable similarities in politics.
Perhaps you two should do lunch.

Who's buying?

Yes, I'm one of those GOP, NRA Life Member, country music listening, boot wearing, gas guzzler Yukon driving, Fox News watching, 50 something year old white guy who irritates busdriving pinheads from NYC.

Unwise.

You're implicitly assuming you're entittled to a reply?

I know you are anxious to fire "implicit assumption" but until you understand its use you should get a trigger lock and adult supervision.

Indeed. "Integrity Matters" after all, or at least, so we've been told by their proud T-shirts anyway.

Hey, a**h***.  I've been a life member of the NRA for 15 years.  Go f*** yourself.
 
Better yet, go shoot yourself in the foot....if you can find it.

wish I could brag like that. Don't forget about that big expensive car you bought for your wife. Does humility exist anywhere in the west?

PHL Update - E190 Captain Vacancies

ITS SIMPLE ECONOMICS

When have you ever heard of a major airline not having enough of its pilots wanting to bid Captain? Well, thats exactly what just happened when the Permanent Bid 14-03a was published yesterday. Out of almost 1,500 First Officer Positions, US Airways couldnt find 113 pilots to bid Captain. Thats right; the largest airline in the world could only fill 101 of 113 E190 Captain Positions.

The reason for the lack of interest is simple. Many pilots can earn considerably more money as an A330 or B75/76 FO, than they can as an E190 CAP, not to mention they will have better scheduling flexibility. Undoubtedly, neither the Company nor APA ever anticipated this situation when they negotiated the abysmal E190 pay rates....

Group 1 aircraft in the past paid about 7 or 8% less than Group 2 and there was no problem filling the seats.
It's all about the W-2. The company should understand this, it's just business.
Cheers.

The aviation world is changing. Mgmnt has been addicted/ depended ever since deregulation on a supply of cheap labor who'd take a beating.

Today, Regionals were the first to take the labor hit but it's moving up the ladder faster than anyone ever imagined. E-190 Captain jobs go vacant, word is the last proffer for A-330 instructor Captains got zero takers, how many recalls said 'no thanks' to the largest airline in the world and now in July you have to cough up an extra $15,000 for full motion sim time to get an ATP!

10,000 apps on file at a major might lull them into complacency but those 10,000 are on file everywhere. Someone on another board is running the list of announced hiring for 2014. If you include the JetBlues, Spirits etc the count in 2500 for this year.

Regrettably, I just see the line folks getting the hammer dropped on them this summer which might explain USAPA's request to have the 2011 injunction lifted.

Been an NRA member for 15 years huh? Sure you have...LIbtard.

libtard
"(Lib-Tard) 1) Combination of the words Liberal and retard (see also: Libterd, libturd, libnerd, libsurd, libdiot, libored) 2) The result when a tree hugger successfully mates with a tree and the offspring is born with an extra chromosome. 3) Any helpless society that must always be liberated by the blood and sweat of others yet are too arrogant and stupid to realize that they owe their entire existance to others."
