Put on your big boy pants and quit whining about how awful and horrible the job conditions you're working under are, if it's so glaringly bad, then quit. Ain't no one forcing you to work in this gawd awful place, acting like you shoveling coal 12-15 hours straight, working on a chain gang, gimme a break, you're sounding like a self-entitled mama's boy.
Guess you missed the point. You missed a spot on Bendo's Mercedes! Now go pick up some straight pay open time at your 72$!

If you only read one thread on here you might think this is a unique situation. It's the same line that is spewed on the SW, DAL and every other airline thread on here. So either all airlines suck or there are a lot of whiners on here.

Is it because you get to fly a shiny new Airbus?

Are you kidding me with this crap? You all sound like a bunch of 5th graders.
We are all professional airline pilots perhaps we should start acting like it.
Ptuoverheat is right, where we currently are pay wise is no higher than regional level pay for first officers, and as far as captain pay its the lowest next to frontier.
Instead of fighting together for our future you are all bashing one another.

Correct me if I am wrong but this is an open forum and we are free to air our dirty laundry and frustration regarding our current status?
Whether we have 3 posts or 300 doesn't apply here, what does apply here is we are what is keeping this airline moving.
Without the pilot group moving metal management doesn't have any beans to count.
Aren't we owed an honest wage and a good contract?
Have we all forgotten that WE the pilot group bailed this "management"out in July because they have been trying to run this airline in a skeleton minimum?!

The Airbus isn't the only aircraft with a PTU. But you probably figured that out already.
