Hopefully you guys can help me out I don't feel like being on hold w/IT for an hour...emaestro, what does it require software wise to run. I opened it up on epic at home and I went to login and nothing happens. I know I used the right password/username combo because it works over at the trailers, but I can't use it on my computer. I doesn't give me any error messages or do anything. Any ideas??? I'd appreciate it!!

So where do you go after you are done with IOE? Are you flying the line for your 100? Then what have they told you?

It defiantly seems like Freedom has taken over. Yesterday was my last flight for a long time, Back to Long Call after almost a year of having a line. Thanks all to FRE_DUMB. Lots of freedom “Pilots” standing around all over terminal 2 and 3, all smiling because they are back and flying routes for delta. I understand that it’s not so much their fault, as it is of management, and so I won’t resort to the level of some of the Delta pilots that don’t even acknowledge you exist as you pass them. I will try my hardest to be polite to the Freedom pilots, but when they take money out of my pocket, it’s pretty hard. They did decide to go and work of that company. I had 3 of them commuting back home with me last night all sitting up in first class. Man cant we just get rid of these guys. They are like cockroaches!

Yep thats right. Hopefully the judge will set a trail date already so we can get on with this. I just want to know either 1 way or another.

While I feel your pain it is a two way street. After Delta took the 900's away from Freedom I had to jumpseat on a Mesa 900. While it was Mesa we all know it is pretty much the same as Freedom. I was treated very nice by the Mesa crew and had no problem getting on board. They are just trying to get ahead in this game we call "Livin the Dream".

And For Oct 49 lines in JFK, 0 in MCO, 0 in CVG. way less then before the incident.
Just face it 50 seaters are on the way out

You guys need to get over the whole "Freedom, CHQ, etc. stole our flying..." That's just the way it works. It's not just at Comair, it happens at other regionals as well. SkyWest taking over ASA routes, Mesaba taking over Pinnacle routes, etc. Comair is a "reserve airline" for Delta. Better get used to it, nothing we can do...

Thats a pretty arrogant thing to say, just remember that it in not the pilot group that is the deciding factor, it is the management of each airline and the court system of our country that is causing this to happen. Talk to a few of these guys and you will see they are all fed up with Mesa work rules and pay, and they are trying to get a better contract...
I do wish we had more flying coming our way, but please try to keep your arrogance down, you make us sound like a bunch of high & mighty pilots
