Good, go hide in a closet. He is correct. The regional industry needs to be a stepping stone again. Get in and get out as soon as you can. If you are gonna stay, stop crying about making 80-100k a year as a regional captain. End rant

That's cool, I'm sorry you feel that way. I don't intend to change, I will still wave, say hello and greet every jumpseater/non-rever with respect no matter what company they work for. I ask nothing in return.

You may live in your delusional world of "well I didn't vote for it" casting blame to someone else or rationalize it anyway you want. Just know that when people smile and wave to you in the terminal who aren't PSA pilots, they mostly likely want you to f off.
I'm sorry you feel that way. I will continue to wave, say hello and treat every jumpseater/non-rever with the respect they deserve as a fellow pilot and professional. I ask for nothing in return. I'm eternally a glass is half full guy.

I was in the December 8th class and haven't been called for IOE. I have a buddy who was in the November 10th class who I spoke with just a few days ago. He's still waiting to start IOE, but he said he's one of the last few in his class who hasn't started yet.

I'd like to know this as well..anyone got the current times?

Also, does anyone have any idea how to see how full the flights are? Just wondering how hard it would be to get a seat into work for my commute. Would think here would be that many into CLT from MEM or BNA

Nothing changes the fact that they voted for a concessionary contract when they said they wouldn't, thereby putting a halt to any sort of leverage and momentum the regional pilots had going forward. So yes, they made their bed and now I can only hope that they have to sleep in it a lot longer then planned.





Not "just" Envoy pilots feel that way!

If you cannot see the leverage that the industry had, then you're an idiot. All that leverage hindered on the different pilot groups not undercutting each other (which strangely enough, PSA agreed to but did not go through with.)

And please...don't fool yourself into thinking that nobody knows who PSA is or what you did. You're only doing a disservice to those who are new to the industry with a scarlet letter now on their resume.

Gotta go fly my shiny CRJ, don't worry I'm keeping the seat nice and warm for you.




VERY well stated!!!

If you would rather be unknown, than known, you clearly went wrong.
