Gojetsssss or Psa

Most former 121 guys that I have had in training are guys leaving Gojet for PSA.

What is the reasoning for that?

Where do you live? Go to where you don't have to commute.

neither.........

Both have their issues. However, PSA is getting all the planes now, which makes them the flavor of the month, so if you want to upgrade reasonably quickly, go to PSA.

As for which one is a better work environment, you can't get a real honest assessment from anyone unless they have worked at both places.

Nice one.

Neither, but if you have to, go to where you don't have to commute. SKW, XJT or Compass would be a much better choice.

NEITHER! If you have any self respect for yourself or the industry you would stay as far away from these places as possible. I have proudly denied 4 PSA clowns from my jump-seat. Also, majors stay away from hiring psa degenerates.

You proudly go up to the counter look a man in the face who is trying to commute and say no? Or you hide behind the gate agent with a "weight and balance" issue? Majors stay away from PSA pilots, whatever you say dude. Also there is no way I wasn't just trolled.

Who do you work for? So I could tell the nice jumpseater from your airline that he's not getting on my flight thanks to nanceystyles.

PSA has a good contract and good growth at least for now so if you have to commute anyway then it's a decent gamble. If you can live in base with Skywest, Compass or Horizon, I'll take them over commuting any day. Upgrade will be longer but your QOL is more important than you think.

Most if not all the pilots I come across have proudly denied psa scumbags the jump-seat. Don't come on the message boards and act like you don't know what's going on out there. psa spineless lowlifes undercut the entire industry for selfish causes. These are not the pilots we want at our mainline. Good Luck

A good contract? Really? The growth is true, for now, but seriously? You're going to call their undercutting, bottom of the barrel, concessionary contract in exchange for assets the company needs to buy anyways good?

You won't get an answer.

This thread is derailing right on schedule. You can't start a thread with "Gojets" and "PSA" in the title and expect it to go any direction other than CRAZY.

Let the good times roll on this one...I just hope this thread stays open long enough for the real funny stuff to hit the fan.

Let's not start a jumpseat war. Guys need to get to work and feed their families.

"feed their families" hahahaha good one! With that awesome contract at psa you might be able to feed your goldfish.

gojetssss or Psa
 

In before the lock...

Seriously? Neither would be my opinion. PSA may be the flavor of the month, but no one has any respect for them. They bent over for shiny jets and will reap what they sow...

Hah yeah right. Anyone who has to brag about it on an internet forum is a liar. I bet you are a pushover who mumbles "yeah..er..welcome aboard" without even making eye contact and then tells himself while laying in bed that night "I really should have denied that PSA scumbag the jumpseat..next time I will.." If you really do deny jumpseats, have the balls to post your name publicly here so we can return the favor to you.

In all seriousness, you are mason32 right with a screen name change. Although I don't necessarily disagree with some of your sentiment, it does surprise me to see you post like this.

To answer the question, go to whichever regional with which you can live in base.

And if they fold?

willing to bet 10 bucks nanceystyles hasn't ever denied a jumpseat to a PSA pilot. He/she is just another computer warrior. IF you have nancey, tell us what airline you work for, stand proud, so we a PSA can deny your pilots a ride home with your compliments. I'll leave them so fast they'll be looking out of the terminal window with those puppy dog eyes with that Sarah Mclachlan song playing in the background.

Our pilots have been hired by several majors, 95% interview pass/hire rate with US Air/American, compare that to the 35% interview pass/hire rate with Endeaver/Delta.....for that other tough guy that states no major is hiring us

With only 9 posts, you're too new here to understand who mason32 is and nanceystyles. He is an American FO.

9 posts since january 2012...

Isn't he a former Gulfstreamer as well?

You really want your chicken shht company to start a jump seat war with American??

Idiot.

Heard from a good source that your pathetic MEC is making quiet rumblings to try to improve your pos contact already.

What a bunch of epic failures.

Cant go wrong with choices like that.

i really want to know who you fly for

Tool of the day /\

I absolutely agree with you. Often times I invite PSA pilots into the jumpseat then kick them off right before door closing. Sure I work for PSA too but we have to draw the line somewhere. You should see how confused they are.

Only problem was last time I did it I kicked off my friend who I was going to have beers with on the overnight. Viva la resistance!

"Captain, what are you doing??!?!I'm your FO today!! Don't kick me out"

Move.



Or go to engineering school like we all should have done in the first place.

Shouldn't have changed my major.

Should have listened to mom and went to med school :-/

Risk it all and commute for the airline with the most growth or give up and work for the airline where you live knowing they may close the base with little chance of upgrade anytime soon. Neither choice is wrong it just depends on how much of a QOL you are willing to give up and various other factors including age, family support and if your SO makes a paycheck. I live in an outstation and choose not to work for an airline that has bases in an outstation because I believe outstation basing will eventually be a thing of the past. There is no magic 8 ball and there are im sure, long term FO's at great airlines who would have, given the chance jumped ship to one of the worse contract airlines for an upgrade years ago. Its the same story repeated here at the regionals and there is no end in sight. I have the opinion that there is no reward without risk and if you are young you should take roll the dice, indecision is not your friend either. Today the ball is in the pilots court, good luck on the decision. Also I know my grammar sucks.

Ahh, what is this self respect you speak of? Not sure you and i have the same definition. Proudly denied jump seats? How much does your life suck that denying jumpseats gets your rocks off? Always a pleasure, i am a happy psa pilot :)

It's always great to see the internet jumpseat warlords. What a joke, so you'll deny someone a jumpseat trying to make an honest living or on the way home to see his wife/husband and kids? You must be a real prize to spend 4 days with. I would be happy to be denied, at least I would know who the punk is that's behind the screen name.

That is exactly what I did Pete. I went to engineering school, worked as an engineer for many years and got sick of it. And now, I am starting at a regional.
This is just to let you know that the pasture is not always greener at the other side of the fence!
