None....yet.

How many flights do they operate per day? And for how long?

How many have ASA crashed due to pilots? 0. Also, in a much longer time in a much bigger operation.

What's the real reason you GoJet bashers like flaming GJ? If you want to pick out stupid pilot tricks, go read AA and DAL accident / incident history for starters. I'm part 91 and ex-eagle and I must say some of the scariest flying I've seen has been from 10K + corporate guys... not regional guys.

Eagle had some generally excellent pilots, but even there, there were a select few that did dumb stuff (like trying to go 300 knots below 10,000, screwing up SIDS etc). So what is it? GJ pilots are all retarded? The move they made to do an end around the TSA scope (which happened years ago) and you're still upset about that?

What is it really? I want to know, because all I see are people trying to build themselves up by bashing another pilot group. And IMHO, anyone who does that is nothing more than a person who doesn't have enough on the ball themselves to keep their mouth shut.

I can understand missing 1 turn, but turning onto the WRONG taxi way that is AWAY from the deicing equipment, then blocking operations, then finally figuring out where you're suppose to go and then going RIGHT past that spot is beyond excusable.

And hey, when someone crashes a plane because they weren't sure what they were doing and kills 69 people, I guess you can just chalk it up to "they were just doing the best they can."
Must be tricky taxing the RJ from over there in the right seat.

You've got much taxi experience do you?

I was based there for years. I'm pretty sure I made more than one mistake taxiing around. But I'm ALSO pretty sure I heard "(insert legacy, cargo, regional, LCC carrier here) where are you going, I told you to taxi via.........." Causing a charlie foxtrot with other airplanes.

Good point. I wonder if that would apply to (insert ANY crash here)? Especially a legacy, LCC, or cargo carrier. You know, the ones hiring ONLY the best pilots with ONLY the most experience.

I couldn't care less about GoJets, but crap can happen to ANYBODY.
