You probably shouldn't be flying at all. |

If you can't land up to the maximum demonstrated crosswind in your aircraft type, then you should absolutely not be flying it.

Lol this a low time pilot gig. Don’t tell pilots sh*t like that. Everyone is allowed to have their personal minimums. Especially as they’re gaining experience. That’s how you keep metal out of dirt. GTFO.

Empty Promises
As per the Contour pilot recruiting page:
121 STYLE SOC- Dispatch, Maintenance Control and Scheduling In reality there is a guy sitting in front of a screen looking at Flight Aware. There is no dispatch. Pilots are completely on their own to operate the flight from planning, weather , passengers. If there are any issues as to the delay or cancellation of the flight on part of the crew, they will receive a call not from operations, but sales. Maintenance control juggles a plethora of placards which are ever present on the dash. Scheduling is one person for all the flight crews done by hand. The stress put them in rehab last year, so scheduling was delayed and seniority ignored. ASAP Pending FOQA Pending These have both been “pending” for at least two years. Don’t hold your breathe seeing them anytime soon. This company operates on the principle of what can we just get by with… There are so many better choices to take your pilot skills. |

No, not really, You've lied. Or did you simply make it up an your own opinion, and claim it came from Contour. Bolded and now quoted tiwce, will you deny it a third time? The only one offering opinion, is you. I've no need to post a resume, as you're not entitled, but then it's not necessary, as you've been quoted, and links have been provided, with no opinion necessary. The links and the quotes are self-evident. You've lied and injected your opinion while claiming it came from Contour. Another lie. Further you claimed my post, which offered no opinion, was opinionated: another lie. Try again. Your comments are not backed up here: https://www.careers.contourairlines.com/pilots-careers Or here: https://www.careers.contourairlines.com/captain-careers Or here: https://www.paycomonline.net/v4/ats/...0DB7B85238B354 Or here: https://www.paycomonline.net/v4/ats/...0DB7B85238B354 Or here: https://www.paycomonline.net/v4/ats/...0DB7B85238B354 Or any of the 7 F/O links here: https://www.careers.contourairlines.com/first-officer-careers Which one backs you up, again? Use your facts. |
All of this bickering is not helpful. Can we all leave the emotion and name-calling out of the discussion? If you wish to argue a point with a specific person, the private message function is available.
The folks who are arguing probably have some useful information to contribute. Can we just be civil about expressing ourselves? Thanks much. |
There is no benefit to posting lies, and one who does, should expect to be called out for doing so. if one doesn't wish to be called out, dont post lies.
Don't double down and repeate the lies, and don't post without evidence. It's hard to argue with quotes, citations, and links. |
