Re: Cargo TA

Mike,

You're spending an awful lot of time on avcanada for a guy getting paid 82 hours.

I would say "get back to work" but every bit of work you do cheapens and degrades our profession even further.

So maybe, just carry on then.

Re: Memo to Senior AC Management: 737Max needs LieFlat Biz Product

Because they have a whole team of marketing professionals who understand what their customers want/are willing to pay for? Or maybe one dude on the internet is picking up on a huge mistake they totally missed when they ordered millions of dollars worth of airplanes.

Re: sky regional airlines first officers E175 job add.

It sounds to me like a lot of these are jazz problems. I flew the 5 planes for 3 years and while they had their share of typical bombardier stuff, nothing being mentioned on here was ever an issue. The planes had HUDs when they got to sky. They actually had excellent dispatch reliability and on time...

Quote from above post, "And they're all garbage airplanes that everyone hates flying." What did that add to the conversation.

Re: sky regional airlines first officers E175 job add.

They say you need to write Embraer first officer, my point is why should you write Embraer since you only operate Embraers, if you apply at Sunwing would you write B737 FO position ?? Our industry is about precision and perception, the required standards should be observed at all levels. Actual quo...

Re: Strike vote

neither is an arbitration ever going to be better than a negotiated agreement. This is not accurate. In a situation like this where WJ is so far behind the industry standard and so consistently profitable, and the company has conducted themselves in such bad faith, arbitration could very well favou...

Re: A Thankyou to ACPA re: swoop ban.

Sorry, you're suggesting that the ACPA pilots reduced to Zip should have quit instead of accept the lower wages? In an industry where just having a job was a godsend?

I think you're completely out of touch.

At the end of the day, try to portray a movie star image. I am not joking. From a multiple reject that certainly does not look like a movie star and certainly does not act like one. :lol: If you can fly, if you have a brain, sorry, not enough. I can imagine exactly how your interview must have gone.

Dude. Are you mental? The classic Dash-8 is an absolute....classic. Try to enjoy it before you're flying a jet, disconnecting at minimums and haven't sync'd a prop in years.
