CLT-RDU is mostly mainline, and full at that. Are you saying exclusive as in amongst regionals?

Sauce?

Note I said sauce, and not syrup.

seafeye 04-21-2014 09:18 AM

I heard that the 900's that PSA are getting. The first ones are going to be used on those flights at first.
Basically don't expect flights over 1 hr.

American Airlines Group Reports Record First Quarter 2014 Financial Results

Keep fightin the good fight guys. :rolleyes:

GlobeTreker 04-24-2014 09:39 AM

Good thing you guys took those pay cuts. Just think of all the things those shareholders would not have been able to buy if you hadn't.

PilotJ3 04-24-2014 09:40 AM

Clearly PSA is not part of the fight, they are part of the problem.

Apparently PDT to follow the stabbing to the industry.

Just so everyone knows, PSA just upped the NH classes to 30 every other Monday. Not a single no show yet this year. Current PSA Pilots now get a $1000 referral bonus for recommending a new hire. Come to PSA and the first day of class refer 10 of your friends and make $10K.............. :)

Air whiskey has a $1500 referral, so I could make 15k according to your dream land world where 10 friends all decide to get together and fly some plane.

That's a lie when you say "not a single no show yet this year", I personally know two people that no showed. Man you guys are getting desperate huh?

Try to go to a regional with better standards. (yes, there are regionals with better standards and headed in a better direction)

Like Mesa??? Their year-4 900 rate is equal to PSAs year-2 rate & Mesa has a ton of 900s. Agree it should be more, but PSA's standards are "ok" for 50 new hires per month & classes every two weeks.......just sayin.
Your opinion of self worth in this industry is flawed.

Actually, no its the truth. We had people cancel before the class started but were able fill the seat. No "no shows" this year. Fact

First shiny jet on property in a few days. Employees have been invited to come tour it in a couple weeks.

Come here and upgrade this decade PSA Airlines | Open Positions


All that anger and hate is taking years off your life.

I have a friend that started class recently at PSA. The company wants the classes full and it's understandable that people will no show or cancel at the last minute. My friends class was "over booked." The capacity was 25 and 28 showed up. The company asked for 3 volunteers to take the next available class. The guys that took the offer kept their seniority from the first scheduled class date and were paid full guarantee and perdiem while they were waiting at home for the next class in weeks. The point is, classes are full at PSA and the company is taking extra steps to make sure of it.

Oooooh a shiny 900 wow, impressive as your payrates.... If you haven't noticed upgrade times are coming down across the board and most new FOs won't need an upgrade to move on. On another note, PSA Ukcs

I hope you're right about not needing to upgrade, if not you may be fueling the "pilot shortage' storyline and giving new guys false hope...

Big C 05-09-2014 06:52 PM

I hate forums and I hate reading the garbage that people post. For all of you that bag on regional carriers like PSA, shut the F*$K up and get out of aviation. You're not worth the brain cell my eye ball burns trying to read your garbage. If you can't say anything positive, then don't say anything at all. If you're mad that PSA took a contract and Envoy rolled the dice and lost their ass off, then get over it. Eagle had their chance, three of them, and AA is playing for keeps. Envoy pilots, when will you learn not to slap the hand that feeds you! That wasn't a question..

Yes the industry sucks, but you all knew this fact coming in. You can run with the big dogs or go play with the puppies. If you can't handle the one year of pain, go work for Wal Mart. Better yet, McDonalds. At least at McDonalds you'll be in the company of others that whine and complain as much as those of you blogging on this forum.

PSA does fill all 30 seats in every class every other Monday and I am proud to work here. The staff is very polite and the company is growing faster than they can recruit pilots to fill the airplanes. I interviewed with every regional and was offered jobs by all of them. Literally, all of them. It was a toss up between going to Compass or PSA. In the end I chose PSA because it was an easier one hop commute, the pay was close to the same, and upgrade was faster. Compass has slowed pilot staffing to almost a screeching hault. In fact, I just came out of the hiring pool today and was offered a July 17th class. Nevertheless, I will keep trucking with PSA because the company as a whole is moving in the right direction. At least at PSA I get paid Per Diem, monthly guarantee, and I get my own hotel room with a King Size bed at the Holiday Inn during training. Did I mention a full service breakfast was included with snacks 24/7 and every major chain restaurant in Dayton including Wal Mart (for those of you lookiing for a career change) within a three minute walk? So instead of trying to find something bad and negative to gripe about, try focusing on the positive side of things.

If you interview with PSA today, you will be in a new hire class in less than a month and in Captain upgrade in two and a half years. If you interview in five months then you'll probably upgrade in three and a half to four years. Why wait until Envoy furloughs 47% of their pilot workforce or Endevour downgrades the next poor soul. If you want in at PSA while the getting is good I'll write a referral and split the bonus with you 60/40. I get 60.. Send me a private message.

And the big face is "embarrassment"...

Enjoy your king sized bed with snacks 24/7...I know when you'll be the one trying to fit in my cockpit door wanting a ride with the cookie crumbs and needing a seat belt extender. :eek:

Envoy pilots along with all the other pilot groups could have stood strong and fought for what they are worth, but as long as there's one cockroach willing to do it for CHEAP it ruins it for everybody. Ever hear of supply and demand??? Can you imagine the solidarity and strength of the pilots if PSA said no to concessions, then Envoy, then all the others right down the line??? Do you realize they would HAVE to pay pilots more instead of sending them back to the dark ages? Of course you don't....

As for telling Envoy pilots what they need to do you need to just shut it cockroach.

So that's what the C in Big C stands for? :D

Grrrr 05-10-2014 12:08 AM

I don't get all the hate. He didn't vote in the contract, he wasn't there! Yeah you can say that "he's supporting the race to the bottom by going there", but have you looked at the landscape from a new hire's perspective? There aren't a lot of better options out there. Other than compass, skywest (heard a year and a half for a line?), or AWAC( if they don't shrink) there aren't really many better options, and maybe those don't work for him bc of basing anyway. Their contract and pay rates are far from the bottom and that SAP they have is +1 for QOL which everybody agrees should be priority #1 anyway, pay caps are not the end of the world at a non-shrinking airline (notice I didn't say growing bc I know somebody would argue). So why all the hate, those 900s were not going to Envoy regardless and they aren't going to be taking your EJets either. Those will most likely be at somewhere like Mesa or Republic that has a much worse contract than PSA from what I've seen and heard, but nobody blasts anybody for going there for that "less than 2 year upgrade" everybody(including friends of mine) is flocking there for. Hate to interrupt this thread with logic though, please carry on.

meyers9163 05-10-2014 04:35 AM

No worries somehow Envoy forgot they and their former MEC Chairman started all of this. Same group of MEC guys who in March 2013 sat at a Courtyard across from national office saying how they hope to staple the East scum below them in the merger.... All were laughing and giggling.... So pardon me if I have zero sympathy for those guys who started off by proposing a B Scale.... Caps are by no means as atrocious as what you all proposed, received, and then had your status reps turn down.... Way to go Tony and your AE negotiations committee....

Yeah, that's how PSA guys will eat once their pay and longevity are frozen after 2 AA interviews.

You're not worth the brain cell my eye ball burns trying to read your garbage. If you can't say anything positive, then don't say anything at all. If you're mad that PSA took a contract and Envoy rolled the dice and lost their ass off, then get over it. Eagle had their chance, three of them, and AA is playing for keeps. Envoy pilots, when will you learn not to slap the hand that feeds you! That wasn't a question..

Yes the industry sucks, but you all knew this fact coming in. You can run with the big dogs or go play with the puppies. If you can't handle the one year of pain, go work for Wal Mart. Better yet, McDonalds. At least at McDonalds you'll be in the company of others that whine and complain as much as those of you blogging on this forum.

PSA does fill all 30 seats in every class every other Monday and I am proud to work here. The staff is very polite and the company is growing faster than they can recruit pilots to fill the airplanes. I interviewed with every regional and was offered jobs by all of them. Literally, all of them. It was a toss up between going to Compass or PSA. In the end I chose PSA because it was an easier one hop commute, the pay was close to the same, and upgrade was faster. Compass has slowed pilot staffing to almost a screeching hault. In fact, I just came out of the hiring pool today and was offered a July 17th class. Nevertheless, I will keep trucking with PSA because the company as a whole is moving in the right direction. At least at PSA I get paid Per Diem, monthly guarantee, and I get my own hotel room with a King Size bed at the Holiday Inn during training. Did I mention a full service breakfast was included with snacks 24/7 and every major chain restaurant in Dayton including Wal Mart (for those of you lookiing for a career change) within a three minute walk? So instead of trying to find something bad and negative to gripe about, try focusing on the positive side of things.

If you interview with PSA today, you will be in a new hire class in less than a month and in Captain upgrade in two and a half years. If you interview in five months then you'll probably upgrade in three and a half to four years. Why wait until Envoy furloughs 47% of their pilot workforce or Endevour downgrades the next poor soul. If you want in at PSA while the getting is good I'll write a referral and split the bonus with you 60/40. I get 60.. Send me a private message.

This is why I won't let ANY PSA pilot ride MY jumpseat.

95% of folks at PSA interviewing with Airways are getting hired. Only a few that haven't put in the required effort have been turned down. With the departure of the current President, guys will no longer be held. The company has plenty of new hires in the pipeline right now to keep things going strong for the next 3-4 months. If filling classes becomes an issue, I suspect it won't happen until early 2015, which most of the hiring for the 900s will be done by that point. I've jumpseated on plenty of Eagle flights lately, not a problem. The denying of the jump seat talk is just that, talk.
