[/QUOTE]

Because gojet has so many pilots, as opposed to everyone other regional. Ask any pilot at any other regional what they think of gojet and they say those guys are scum. I would not take my chances by going there.

But whatever logic makes you happy.[/QUOTE]

Within the last month I've seen on these forums the following airlines labeled as "the worst"; Pinnacle,Republic,Colgan, and go jets...it seems to me that most guys on here and in general don't know who to hate more, or is it an issue of your company sucks more than mine because 7 years ago they circumvented another pilot group.

Mesa and Freedom did it. But they were alpa.

Compass did it worse to NWA guys, NWA HR were at the interviews! New hires flew 727 sims!.But they were alpa.

Go jets did it to TSA and they weren't alpa.
I wonder who the genius was that decided we should be paid according to how many seats we have in a plane...instead of how big the airplane actually was....it seems as if that was ALPA too, but its all good.

Lets all hate go jets because they did it first, starting the trend.

Everyone says dont go there, and people go there. They know the risk, and will get treated like crudscum later on for it.

Where is the guarantee that if go jets had not been created, that i would be driving a bimmer and own a 5 bedroom estate in upstate NY? Scapegoats will always be needed to justify why people are unhappy, and unfortunately an airline with a safety record that has been better than most others is slammed because they didn't wanna play with alpa.

Dear God, please make it stop. The ignorance... it's too much...

I've always been curious, & it may have already been answered. Does GoJet really hire street Captains, or are they just Captain Qualified First Officers(CQFOs) like TranStates used to?

Heard some gojetters bragging in the hotel lobby last night about being pilots and being total DBs. They are not scumbags in their own little world. As for the real world, it was hard to keep my mouth shut but I was able to do it. Also hard not to puke when I am parked next to one of them.

A free market is a market where prices are determined by supply and demand. Free markets contrast with controlled markets in which prices, supply or demand is directly controlled. Various economic theories require specific properties of free markets, for example, a perfect market with perfect information and perfect competition. Regulation which does not affect these specific properties can be in place without disqualifying the market as free under supply and demand.
Although free-markets are commonly associated with capitalism today, free markets have been advocated by socialists and have been included in various proposals for market socialism where market allocation of capital is combined with self management in enterprises, and employee-owned cooperatives or publicly-owned enterprises operate in free markets.

What were the entities then, that stopped G7 from operating and displacing mainliners? Today's ASA18 SEA-MCO fares were from $52.17 to $1,916.05. What entitiy guided this?

It will be 70 years and you will still be ****ed, and complaining how this industry is not fair and no one takes a stand.

Your right the industry isn't fair and I knew that well in advance of choosing this job. Wouldn't shock me at all if AMR tried something like that. Will I be ****ed at the company yes. Will I be ****ed about people that get hired there nope.

Inform me then.
And after that:
Please explain how Compass is no different than Gojets.

Please explain how Freedom Airlines was no different than Gojets

The only thing I'm seeing different is the union representation-GJ had none.

From an outsider looking in, that's all it appears to be: a bunch of pro-union pilots ****ed that there exists an airline without ALPA representation.
