Lynx killed off part 2
#41
Look at the original thread response by minimum wage. He clearly states that the Lynx guys will have a great future at Republic. And as far as you being a DL/NWA 74 captain I highly doubt that. I looked at your previous posts about looking for work at Fedex and UPS and your only other posts refer to Republic issues. I guess dimwits can dream though.
Read again Dimwit! If you are basing things on one question and a single topic, then, you are definitely a dimwit pilot.

Lynx rates were sub par, I don't think that's being debated. The difference is that we were promised that they would not stay that way.
Seriously, I don't think anyone is really hating anyone because of where they work. I think some of the vitriol is in response to the hubris that is coming from SOME guys.

When you say single seniority list can pilots simply bid bases then move to them once they have the seniority regardless if they were hired for Republic, Shuttle America or Chautauqua. Can you move between all three freely?

So if that is an embarrassment, how would you explain the lynx rates? Last time I checked, RAH emb 135 captains make more than lynx 70 something seat Q400 captains,or at least about the same.
And that pay scale is virtually every regional pay scale contract signed back when the industry was slow. Lynx people chose to go fly for sub rah rates in 2007 when everyone was hiring. Southwest captains make 200k a year to fly a 737, United guys make 120k to fly an airbus virgin america even less, how about go express your outrage at them.

And show me anywhere else where a fourth year guy makes the same as a twelfth year guy. "When the industry was slow", nice grammar. How about "that contract was signed back when the regional industry was experiencing a downturn. United pilots signed a contract under the duress of chapter 11 section 1113. Republic pilots signed a contract under the duress of stupidity. Apples and oranges.

I think that will come as news to the Midwest pilots. I know a few interviewed last week and the week before but I haven't heard of anyone being told they were hired. So if these 27 have been hired and not notified and class starts in less than three days, nice operation you got going there. Seems to me that they are conveniently doing whatever it takes to make it so no Midwest pilots are hired. BTW, I know many of the Midwest guys said no when asked if they would sign the training contract.

It's clear you don't know very much about the entire process, so maybe stay out of the conversation until you do. Move on. Thanks.

You can upgrade to any other certificate whenever you can hold it. As a CA, after a 2 year seat lock, you can change cert's as long as it's upgrade in pay/equipment. FO's are not free to change certificates. You can move freely in between bases within your own certificate.
