Are 77% of Frontier pilots Captains? That’s pretty incredible if true.

I see this is the section where some of the No voters have come to stroke their “egos” with how great they are for voting No and how angry they are.

Get a life or get out. Regionals are all hiring and would love you to come work for them because it’s SO bad here!

I bet CA goes that far down the list though. PS no doubt in my mind very many yes votes were out of fear, not satisfaction. And that's ok, for those individuals, too.

Got to go! I better get back to the kitchen before Indigo beats me again!

Speak for yourself, I wasn’t part of any organized slow-down. I’m status quo in my safe operation of the Airbus and I’m not going to risk my certificate to help the company make a couple extra hundred bucks per flight and I sure wouldn’t do it to prove to this management how incredibly thankful I am for this new contract. I’ll show up on-time and do my job in the safest manner that I’m allowed to operate, period. It won’t have a negative effect on their D+0 or A+14, and never has (not even during negotiations).

Just because we climbed out of the septic tank into the basement toilet doesn’t mean I will do ANYTHING but operate safely from a to b.....

If you are an FO at the bottom of the barrel ULCC and you don't leave, YOU are the one bending over.

If you park without the apu on you’re not a safe operator of the aircraft. One of the dumbest cluster procedures I’ve ever seen. Wait and wait and wait for Captain America to call for the parking while #1 is out there raging for minutes just to go dark when the pos f9 quality ground power drops off. Well guess we’ll start the apu, huh? N e v e r.

And for you management lapdogs remember that single engine taxi is prohibited on slippery or contaminated taxiways.

Hahaha! We will return to the gate and you can get on the phone and explain yourself to the chief pilot... Unless there is a safety reason, we're not going to 2 engine taxi because you're holding a grudge.
