Thanks for the lecture, MD. And that long, boring story. To answer you, I've been doing this 14 years. I know all about jumpseating and was an ALPA Jumpseat Chairman for a time. EOS pilots are welcome on my j/s---for now---but better get their managers to play ball.
End of story. |

ockham... The sad thing is he was an ALPA jumpseat coordinator? With that attitude toward jumpseating Im sure his membership had the best representation. Any idea what carrier he is with?

I remember a bottom feeder airline, Planet Airways, hired two bottom feeder guys who had no jet experience either. One was Sean Sweeney to be the chief pilot of a B727 operation of which the larges aircraft he flew was a SAAB 340 and Bob Braden who jumped from commuter to commuter. And true those morons got no respect from the pilot group either.

I remember Planet... they were based out of CVG. The guy that owned the company owned a few hotels also. When a carrier takes a Saab 340 guy and makes him a 727 Chief Pilot its about the same as making some poor bastard the liquor permitee for a crap hole bar... just someone to take the heat and say yes.

The one in CVG was Sunworld
