See, we all have opinions. Doesn't mean they are true. (And I know its not cause I have some friends at CHQ)

Why not try being mad at management instead of the pilot groups (not just directed at Sharky)?
But it's cool for you guys to give us the finger....?

Oh How I love how regional pilot eat their own. I have one question how do you know comair rampers dont like Comair, and are you saying the rampers dont like the pilot group or they dont like the company, because I cant think of any ramper for any company that actually LOVE their company, Rampers like the rest of us are over worked and under paid, Try Working in the *** of a CRJ or ERJ or anyairplane for that matter in the middle of Summer when its Hot as Hades or in the middle of winter when its so cold you think hell has just frozen over.. dont be so quick to generalize and point Fingers " Pun Intended"

Fly Safe everyone
1. I was a ramper. I know what summer and winter (4 times over) is like on the ramp.

2. Many a ramper (especially the morning guys) tell me they prefer working at the A gates because "You guys don't treat us like a buncha *********s."

You hit it right on the Head I bid A concourse to get away from are own pilot group. When I did work the ramp, they had horrible time keeping people at the C concourse and couldn't figure out why the numbers are so great at A concourse. Same comair employees, just different planes. Its not the company, its alot of the treament we recieved from are co workers who, feel there some how better than us. I know its not all of the pilots, alot of them are really cool people. Its a few that make it worse for everybody. I found working for Chautauqua crews to be alot more pleasent working conditions. We share the same break room we talk when it isnt busy, and they dont speak to you as your the gum on there shoe.

IMHO

The difference is, when you're doing your military flying, you don't have a load of passengers in the back. While I don't really care if another pilot throws me the one-finger salute, our (paying) passengers generally don't like when we do that.

Since I live with a ramper at CVG, I can say your post is incorrect. He transfered of A as soon as he could to go over to C. People bid to where they have the best schedule, just like pilots. It isn't because you guys are so cool and treat them so nice, I have heard contrary from my roommate.

As for giving the finger, it happens. Watched a captain do it before. Pilots aren't overly happy here. Go through a sham bankruptcy and see how happy you are.
