"No one in the? right mind should come to to this dumpster fire".

You're correct, he never indicated he works there. Also correct, I'm yb74h or who ever you say. Go ahead, bet money on that one. That's a solid win for you.

Still not sure where the drama comes from about me defending Gojet or anyone. Couldn't care either way. Looks like you need to go back and do some re-reading yourself.

Let the butthurt advocating continue. Clearly, somthing in your past has you a bit triggered..

Peace..

🤣🤣 maybe it’s uncle hulas

I mean who else, other then him would put so much effort into defending this toilet seat company

but hey for the guys and girls who don’t mind breaking FARs, and flying past mins then this is the place for you. Step right up to the circus 🤡

Beating up a 60 yr. old guy on the internet just to air out your dirty laundry.
Can't pay enough for this entertainment..

I’m in flight training currently about to take my commercial check ride. Airlines are my path and have always been a dream of mine. I came to this site to gain some insight into the regional world. I have to say I am really disappointed in a lot of the posts from pilots on here. This is a dream job for a lot of people and I hear nothing but complaints. Don’t get me wrong, I understand every job has its negatives and some companies are better than others to work for. But, how about a little perspective here folks? You’re flying jets and getting paid. Maybe it’s not glamorous or exactly where you want to be at the moment...but still one of the coolest jobs out there. I am fortunate enough to have worked in another industry for 20 years before deciding to go to flight school and I have seen the same types of people over the years in that industry. Nothing but bad things to say. If being a regional airline pilot is so bad (not specific to gojet forum), then leave and find something else that makes you happy. No one is stuck. I appreciate the factual information I get here...but the whining and non-stop badmouthing is terrible.

Hang on, let me get my popcorn.

PM'd you Russ..

Because we’re trained professionals, and should be treated as such. Taking the first jet job because it’s cool and fun should be looked at as bonus perks. For some people GoJet makes sense. But it’s not like it was 25 years ago where you sold your soul to fly a beach 1900 to build time. There are several good options available today. Choose wisely. And hopefully down the road you will still feel good about your decision

Like I said, I understand there will be some bad aspects of every employer. And my comment was not directed exclusively at the gojet forum. I see the same thing on all of the regional forums. I don’t know how many, if any are actively employed by gojet and complaining, but if they are...get another job. One thing I can’t stand is people complaining (a lot) about who they work for. If it’s so bad, leave. That’s all I’m saying. I don’t have much aviation experience...but I have plenty of life experience... and it’s too damn short to complain about.

**A “wealthy” “self employed” 60 year old** 🤣

Are you complaining about people complaining? Do you get a pass? If this really is something you can’t stand you won’t be able to stand this job. The question is will you be able to…leave?

Leave a conversation with someone who is complaining? Sure. Your comment is all out of context.

You must be in a pretty ****ty situation if you find that hard to believe. It happens..

Do you know how seniority works?

Sure do. Care to elaborate on your question?

Nah

What I found hard to believe was someone who describes themselves as (self employed, wealthy and 60s) defending TSA management....

But hey sounds like he’s got a great Seeking arrangement bio going. Don’t forget to include a picture on a boat!

What are they saying in indoc these days? Are the rest of the planes coming from Skywest or from somewhere? How much hiring? Any flow to Spirit or Atlas? How many were in the class of the 19th? Are they going to pay the bonuses they promised previously? Are they ever going to clean up from the flooding at headquarters?

And in fact, nothing in his posts indicate he's defending anyone or anything.
But it's your rant and being self employed, wealthy and 60 seems to be an issue with you.
Pointless yet everyone has their ax to bare..

Getting a bunch Mesa 700s right now, 20 in the 19th class, no word on bonuses, they are shooting for two classes a month of 20-30 and 74 planes by end of 22 and possibly even more after those

My question on seniority was based on your suggestion that of people are unhappy with their current airline situation then they should just quit. If you know how seniority works, then you know it's not that easy. An unhappy regional pilot may be trying to move on to a legacy/major/LCC/cargo but that's not a given. Their other option in your scenario would be to quit and start over on the bottom of another regional seniority list. "Better the devil you know..." and such. If you are just getting your commercial certificate then you have a long way to go before you will be at an airline. Keep us posted on your progress. I hope you still have the enthusiasm after you have been grinding away "flying jets and getting paid" for a few years.

I never implied it would be “easy”. But you’re coming onto a forum masked by the internet and complaining like you have to worst job in the world. If it’s as bad as you (I don’t mean you personally) make it sound, than yes...just quit. Grinding away “flying jets and getting paid” is still worlds better than the alternative. Maybe be thankful for having a job at all...or that your job, well...is flying jets.

Anyone in the june 29th class?

Curious about June 1st also.

Likewise about the June 15th class

June 1st here!

How are you all getting on in class with the masks? Worn all day? Are they relaxing the requirements a bit? Out here in Cal, it's still some of the strictest rules in the country. I get that it's still going on in the airport but was wondering more in the classroom setting.

20,000 first officer bonus
 

So I looked on the website and it doesn't have much info . Does anyone know the bonus really works ?

I wouldn’t go there based on the bonus. Or for any reason as a matter of fact. They still owe a ton of pilots bonuses that they promised and never paid.

They promise, you come, they don't pay. They promise, you come, they file bankruptcy, they don't pay. They promise, you come, they don't pay, you sue, they fight, you settle for a small amount.

How does the promised bonus take form? Is there a contract? Is the contract allowed by the CBA? If not, They promise, you come, they don't pay, you sue, they argue that the CBA overrides the bonus contract as members of the group with a CBA cannot have individual contracts, and they win.

So does anyone know how long it's taking to make captain ? The most junior captain has how much time with the company ?

The most junior Captain at the company probably has 0 time at the company cause we’re hiring Direct Entry Captains. You can make Captain anytime as long as you have 1000 hours of 121 time.
