We also refer to the CRJ as the CvRJ as well. It doesn't mean we have malice or haven't flown that aircraft in a past life.

So would it be a bad idea to ask in my interview with GoJet about some of the problems that have been presented in this thread (and on this forum)...

When, at the end of the interview, the HR person usually asks "Do you have any questions for me?" should I ask about some "questionable" former employee treatment stories I've heard and then gauge her reaction? I'm usually pretty good at reading people and seeing them try to lie or make something up on the spot...

I've just heard so much crap on here about GoJet that I find it hard to believe that the majority of it is true! I find it hard to believe that the regionals are a "Union Industry" and yet people can be fired for taking medical leave for injuries, or taking leave to care for their family members, or being injured on the job and then FIRED immediately after it happened... HOW could this sort of thing go on and not get MASSIVE media attention?? How are the unions not getting involved to straighten out managment and make sure that the employees remain EMPLOYED?!

I realize that there are some GoJet pilots on here that do love their jobs and do just fine on a day to day basis (I genuinely HOPE I can do the same thing if I am offered a job), and even I realize that no matter where I go in the regionals - It's gonna SUCK... The pay is going to suck, the hours are going to suck, being away from my fiancee / wife for long periods of time will really suck... But of all the advice I have gathered from regional pilots, the MAIN item seems to be "DO NOT COMMUTE IF POSSIBLE"....

I live 15 minutes from a GoJet domicile (KRDU)... The next closest domiciles are KGSO (Republic) and KCLT (PSA)... GSO is about a 1.5 hour drive from my front door... Charlotte is 3+ hour drive (probably a crash pad as well)... With that being the case and my options, What would you do?

I wouldn't ask in quite the same way. If you want to ask a question of the interviewer say something like, "what made you choose Gojet." Or how has your expirence been with Gojet. That will get your answer without seeming confrontational.

I have been on your shoes and I chose G7. That said, you seem very hesitant. There is animosity among a good deal of regional groups. The regional industry has a large amount of companies fighting for the same flying. Bottom line, there is always going to be someone to tell you that you made the wrong choice by going to X regional. The good news, is the majors could care less. Majors look at all regionals as a stepping stone and don't care which one you went too.


My advice? Go try G7 since you are driving to work. If you don't like it, then quit and go to another regional.

Thanks very much for the advice blue... Out of curiosity did you end up at JetBlue? That's where I'd love to end up one day!

Go in there and ask them the tough questions. If you want to know the answers to these questions, definitely don't hold back. I asked my interviewers some tough questions when I interviewed at my current airline, and they were definitely taken aback, but they did their best to answer them and ultimately offered me the job.

The fact that you even have to ask these questions is a huge 'red flag'. Remember their union is basically useless. They don't have ALPA. It sounds like you're military, so you may be at a major quickly and escape Gojet unscathed.

Without question...








Move!;)

If TH67DoorGunner wants he can get the complaints off of the internet. There is Cuff v. Trans States Holdings, and Gojet, South v. Gojet, Hall v. Gojet, Newland v. Gojet, Davis v. Gojet, and more. It only took me a few seconds to find these.

It seems to me that many many people have made this known and TH67DoorGunner still doesn't believe it. I think he should go and keep everyone here posted as to what happens. If they know he is doing that he will probably be left alone and things will work out well for him! With a name like TH67DoorGunner he obviously wants to take a risk when he does something.

Who wants to ruin their career by going there?

Yup. I'm here at Jetblue.

TH67 DoorGunner,
