BL is all common sense and has a great standing with both the union and the company. This is a no brainer.


I'm leaning towards JG and have not voted yet. Can you please say exactly what your buddies at express jet have told you. I'm leaning towards JG because this last year of negotiations the union gave us zero I mean zero communication. Everything was a rumor from a guy that heard from a guy. The actual TA was an insult. And the union never even had the professionalism to tell us the results of the survey we took about the items we wanted them to fight for. BL seems like a solid guy and he wasn't a negotiator, but every time one of those union guys say we have to vote for BL it makes me think I shouldn't.

Yes 100%. I know I'm basically out the door here at PDT, but am I the only one who doesn't even know who the hell the other guy is? Was he ever a FO here? Never flown with him or seen him...

Listen man, us PDT guys don't know our stuff. We need an outsider to show us how it's done. It's time to realize that we are cut form inferior cloth, and need to be told whats best for us.

That could have been the rationale behind the TA and why it was so utterly pathetic.

If I was in the current MEC gang of mediocrity. I would be slinging mud as well to any newcomers looking to tip over the gravy train also.

Oh. And why the threats of quitting if JG gets the nod? Taking my toys and leaving? Says a lot about the level of professionalism in the current group.

Seems maybe we should get personal about BL no? Glass houses and stones come to mind.

Even though he comes across as aggressive. Everyone tempers after the jobs at hand get presented.

You have Facebook? I called and reached out to him, answered every question I had. No BS, gave his opinion so I could make mine. In his video he mentioned leaving XJT in 2010, that’s a long time ago.

I do have FB. The guy I was responding to said he spoke with XJT guys and heard "horror stories." I just wanted him to explain exactly what he heard. Maybe the specifics have already been said but I missed it. If he was the union dues that's a joke that happens all the time, just a basic accounting error.

There's a lot of guys laughing at BL, his crew and how they handled all of this right now its truly entertaining. The whole quitting if JG gets the nod def speaks A LOT about how these guys act. Says a lot when most of their time has been slandering JG instead of talking about real ways to get what PDT pilots need right now.

And JG has talked about real ways? It’s all generalities as far as I can see.

BL has put his money where his mouth is, for years.

Why does it seem that everyone on here that is pro BL is throwing hate at JG? Smearing his name, trying to burn his reputation yet everyone that seems to be pro JG has not said one hateful thing about BL? No matter who you decide to vote for there is no need to bash the other person, have some professionalism. We are all after the same things...better QOL, better pay, etc.
