You are wrong, and what is with you?

AA goes into Chapter 11 and you get on the major side and bust their balls. Pinnacle goes into Chapter 11 and you bust their balls. I told you this with the AA guys and I am saying it for the Pinnacle guys, LEAVE them alone, you don't offer anything useful.

They must love you at UPS.

NWA wasn't a preferred major back then, so i can see how you had a class of all regional dudes. The mil guys were looking to go somewhere better like FDX or SWA.

FedEx and SWA hire civilians. You are constantly proven wrong, yet you just keep digging that hole. Please, stop back pedaling. You're only making yourself look worse.

oh Czech you are clueless...an article from June 2011

Today, fewer pilots are leaving the military, instead opting to make it a career. Furthermore, Air Force Magazine reported:

USAF is already training more UAV pilots than F-16 pilots. Within two to three years, Air Force officials predict, drone pilots will outnumber F-16 pilots, numbering as high as 1,100.

Airlines don't recognize this as piloting experience, though. Fortunately, these pilots may be able to move on to a flying position after three years in the service, which brings them three years closer to the twenty years needed for retirement, something that may affect their decision to move on to the airlines.

As the military pool of pilots dries up, most new hire classes will be filled with high-time regional airline pilots.

.....just one perspective that sippin Czech's haterade

Now that we've dispatched Czech's litte sideshow.....can we get back on the thread topic please...

This whole thing sucks b@lls and I don't wish furloughs on anyone but with that being said and our future looking bleak....The No out of seniority, or AC specific furlough is a kick in the privates for those of us that lost out on the integration. The only fair way I see if this is the case would be straight up DATE OF HIRE furloughs from the bottom up and then retraining as needed. Am I wrong in thinking that or should I be ok with say a Colgan guy hired way after me taking my slot at the company I was hired at and I end up on the street? *

Menke is getting hammered over the payroll issues......

I hope he's being crucified.(metaphorically of course)Scumbag. :mad:

Can't remember who it was , but a pilot called in and pointed out that when you don't get paid, calling the bank and explaining you work for an airline that is working on getting its payroll straight just doesn't cut it, and the company owes the pilots and their families a reasonable explanation of what is going on and when paychecks will be correct.

How many of the PCL guys in MEM are trying to get on with FedEx vs. giving up seniority at PCL, now that PCL has declared?
