I know him too and he is a very nice guy who is a quiet one. He definitely didn't look like the jacka**. I'm sure we will hear what happened to that cpt because so many people were involved in the write up of him. What a waste....

I'm not defending this Captain's behavior, which is childish. However, it's just as childish to sport your Teamsters lanyard when jumping Frontier. Don't be a dip$hit and rub salt in a wound. If you're asking to ride in a Frontier cockpit then grow up and take off your Teamster's crap. Like someone said, "it's just a lanyard". I have no sympathy for one of our group who's left at the gate for taking that silly stand.

CW's comment was intended as humor. I see some (skygirl) are wrapped too tight to get a giggle out of it.

Smile people. The beatings will continue until moral improves.

T5,

Do you honestly think that CW's obvious attempt at humor is appropriate to make light of a jumpseat denial?!? I seriously doubt you guys would be making jokes about the issue if fellow F9 guys start getting denied the jumpseat just as the RAH guys are currently dealing with.

Out of curiosity, since a few guys have thrown fits over teamster lanyards being worn on F9 metal, would it be acceptable if RAH guys told you to take off your FAPA lanyards on their metal?

Wear the F9 lanyard! Who cares! I'll allow ANYONE in my jumpseat anyday. Just a guy/gal trying to get to/from work. It's just a lanyard. Unclench people...unclench. I'm CHQ and wear a Teamsters lanyard...it was free...who cares.

Everyone gets all up in arms about the smallest stuff...

The teamsters lanyards were directed at RAH management and still are. Timing wasn't great for the F9 guys but those are the facts. The FAPA lanyards I see we're a response in the losing process.im not taking mine off, end of story. The feeds the fire of the "FAPA" guys. This crap needs to end.

RAH guys being denied a jumpseat on Frontier prohibits their ability to get to work causing a cancellation. This in turn will cause RAH to lose the money that it feeds Frontier with. So in essence this particular captain is just hurting himself. Grow up, welcome the guy/gal aboard and move on. We are in this together...

I understand you are all frustrated that a "regional" bought your beloved airline, but time to face facts and enjoy employment or move on. That lanyard had nothing to do with the F9 purchase as Teamsters has been fighting for a new contract yrs before that. I think you guys should continue to do that and see how far it gets you if you think its worth it. Seriously your not going to be coddled forever...
I cannot agree with you more on the lanyard issue. It is childish! But do not kid yourself that is it is happening on the F9 side only. RAH pilots have asked F9 pilots to take theirs off as well.
The last part of your statement on the other hand is pure flamebait and really unneccessary "I think you guys should continue to do that and see how far it gets you if you think its worth it." We all should stop it and get our rides from point A to B without any political BS!

What needs to end?? These so-called 'lanyard wars' as you called it in a previous post? You just said you would not take yours off, so I guess it will never end.
