GoJet is a typical Hulas operation.

Horrible maintenance, horrible management and horrible schedules (unless you are in the top 5%)
Fact: The first pilots to go over to GoJet were "Stellar" Trans States pilots. The same goes for G7 mgt. Trans States guys like to think they are somehow Gods gift to aviation & that they "deserve" this that & the other just because they work at TSA. Well, TSA is a scumbag outfit just like GoJet & now soon to follow will be Compass. Hulas is cheap. I mean the guy won't even buy coffee for his employees in the St. Louis training center. The employees have to have a "coffee kitty" so they can enjoy coffee during the day. Any place that is owned by Hulas is a horrible place to work but it IS a job. I personally would never go back. The maintenance, or lack there of is enough to keep me away. If you need a job go for it. I worked there for over 4 years. I jumped all over the country all of the time and never had a problem. It's a job but you will work for a horrible man who would run over his own mother for a shiny penny.

If TSA strikes, would the Teamsters MEC at GoJet say 'no' to struck ALPA work?

I'm just trying to give everyone something to chuckle about. Seems like so many are so angry.

I'm thinking he would.

Scabbing isn't easy to hide these days with us kids and the internet....and 4chan.

1. Best threadjack ever.

2. I would also like to be recognized as a troll.

3. TSA is not a "scumbag" operation. Operated by scumbags yes, but one d-mn fine pilot group.

4. Once TSA is released and GoJets starts flyin TSA struck work, they still wont consider themselves scabs. They justify all the harm theyve done.

Awful lot of assumption around here about what may or may not ever happen.

Those of you who think you know everything really annoy those of us who do, m'kay?

Um, yea...good luck with that...the flying is not "Trans States flight XXXX"......it's a mainline flight operated by Hulas airlines. Just so you can understand the above statement....It's a mainline flight not Trans (mis)takes, not GoJet's, not Skywests, not Mesa's, not Air Wisconsin's etc... Mainline can/will assign those flights to whomever they choose. I know it's above your pilot group but you should admit you were screwed by your own MEC and ALPA. Most of you are/were drunk on Kool-Aid..now look at ya. Mgt has you under their thumb which is exactly where they want you. But, keep puffing your chest out

Sign me up for the Troll boat as well.

As more regional pilots make it to mainline they will remember who Go Jet is and begin to educate the older mainline pilots about them.

Zapita,
I'm curious how you would feel if your company outsourced some or all of your MD-11 flying to an organization flying CRJ900's for half your current pay. What effect do you think that would have on your quality of life?, and would they be fully justified doing the job at that rate just so they could gain experience and move on?
