Ok I get it so you will fly a Q-400 for $21 a hour...and soon a 737 for $30 an hour...I may be ignorant but I know you will be responsible to bring this once well paying job to a taxi driver job pay.

rofl....i do think its funny how 95% of the people complaining are furloughed Trans states guys who got hired in the mad house hiring of 2007-2008......
the ones who shouldn't have anything to say about this because they were not even around when Gojet was formed and were mainly low timers with around 250 hours....the work conditions at Gojet are no different than those at trans states and have nothing to do with bringing down the industry.....what about republic taking midwest's flying??? no one is complaining about that......or what about when trans states took eagle's flying AND airplanes???
or we could go even deeper and talk about how all regionals are taking mainline flying.......
my point is that this is just a cycle that will continue on and not stop......we are lucky if were able to hold onto a job right now and people need to take what they can get and try to make the best of it.....how the hell can people go through life being bitter about everything....we call those people a**ho**s

You are so wrong, if anything it's the 2005 guys who are ****ed off more than the very few of us that are on this forum. 95%? I didn't know that TSA only had 8 pilots.... All of the things you've pointed our are bad cases for legitimate operations, of which GJ is not. As far as the TSA/AE thing it's been beaten to death, TSA used to be a TWA regional. TSA got grandfathered in with AA. Not to mention the "borrowed" airplanes are going back while TSA is furloughing, AE will be hiring soon.....

Well, TSAers still haven't answered the question of why you and ALPA didn't appeal the NMB decision. 
You guys always seem to avoid this question. My pilot group didn't do anything except take a flying job that you voted down. You screwed up and cannot admit it.

How SAD, GoJeT rats not only lower the bar by undercutting and flying for an alter-ego, they fly 70 seat airplane for about $6 less an hour for what I get paid to fly a 50 seat airplane............and thats after our pay cut.............and your contract is garbage, much like your morals............
