Go Jet
From another thread;
Yeah I said it, the G word. Go ahead, lock it, send me on vacation...I don't give a $hit. G7 deserves a place on this forum like every other "job stealing regional". Why is everyone so sensitive? Cripes almighty. If anything this company serves to illuminate whats happening in this industry. |
Ha! I do not work for Go Jet and am not hating, But........ oh I will stop typing b4 I get in trouble.
Am in.... |
Too many people drinking cervezas and logging on here tonight I guess:p
In before the lock! |

In spite of what was said in another prematurely closed thread by whatever overzealous and biased moderator, this is a good point. GoJet DOES INDEED deserve a place on this forum like ANY other regional. Regionals are regionals. There are some regionals which provide connection to a mainline in aircraft the mainline could not afford to support: light twin and turbo prop operators. Then there are some regoionals which have both augmented and eroded mainline operations: the RJ operators. Then there is a third group of regionals which circumvent all mainlines, regionals, and unions...... |

Actually, not all regionals are the same.

Making blanket statements like all regionals are the same is pure idiocy. Just like saying all majors are the same.

All regional are the same.
Simple And More Exacting. Or if you are bold Simpler And More Efficient ;) |

Though I'll make no argument about being biased, I don't see any problem with sub-50 seat turboprops at regional/commuter carriers. Mainline can't profitably run things Dash/ATR sized with the current economy and market conditions. The simple fact that the turboprop lacks in speed will keep it from being used on routes where the CRJ/ERJ are jumping dangerously into mainline territory. It's sad that AA is trying to go to a B-scale on pilot wages...because a 50-seats-and-up mainline contract is exactly what this industry needs more of. |

I hope we don't get another one over at pinnacolaba |
