GoJet/Delta CRJ7 Contract
#281
FlyingKat, your vag is showing. I was at GoJet in 2005. The majority of my Captains were former TransStates pilots. We never turned our badges around backwards and we continuously jumpseated on TransStates flights to and from St. Louis. The majority of the flights on TransStates flights the crews were very gracious but there were a few Captains, like you that had their panties in a wad but I was never denied a js and we never turned our badges around. Not once in 4.5 years.

Well you might want to see the presentation that was given to Pinnacle pilots to get them to vote for concessions. The point was very clearly made that Delta wanted Pinnacle close to Gojet costs because they were the cheapest in DL connection. Sorry if the truth hurts.

LOL exactly. 757 and all the TSA haters right now are telling people to go to Compass when it is run by the same management at holdings AND is run by the DO that made TSA such an oppressive place to work for years. Shows just how clueless they are.....

Which is why as the pilot pool dries up, and smarter people are not willing to come to Gojet and give away their services Gojet will eventually implode and be consolidated within TSA holdings.

So TSA gets planes from another company and it's a giant stroke fest on here. GoJet gets new planes and of course there's only negative things coming from you and pilottim. Hey, who hired on a bunch of TSA guys who were furloughed 3 times from your company? Oh that's right, it was GoJet. I wonder if the kind gesture would be returned if GoJet furloughed?

Reviewing 2014 Operational Performance: Delta is the Undisputed Heavyweight Champion | The Cranky Flier
Search that article for references to GJ and you will see their perfrormance metrics suck, which we all know. If I had more time I'm sure I could find more data, so if anyone cares to, feel free. Anecdotally, I made reference recently to a mainline jumpseater who *two* legs it on other regionals than straight shot it on Gojets. Fittingly, as we pushed back his one leg Gojets flight was being towed back in for MX.
There is one reason GJ is kept in the porfolio given their historic and well known poor performance. We all know what that reason is. I'm sure I'll get attacked like I'm trying to be rude, but its the honest to God truth.

And the TSA guys were nice only because of the MW death threat memo....
Was hilarious when I saw that memo......

Your "truth" doesn't hurt me at all. I did my time working for that terrible owner. You keep "holding up that bar" and I will enjoy my 17 days off per month, 1-2 legs per day 24-26.5 hour four day trips. Don't forget to shine your Vulcan hat emblem.
