Tiller,

You seem so very obsessed with all things Frontier and see F9 Trolls behind every post and every tree.

You also seem obsessed in hoping for the worst for Frontier and its employees. You give the impression that you would rejoice if or when the company fails, putting many good people on the street.

What has Frontier or the Frontier employee group done to anger you so?

Only the weakest, most shallow and vindictive of Frontier employees wish for anything but success for the RAH employee group and RAH itself. Anyone that has dealt with your upper Management empathizes with your situation and challenges.

Admittedly, this forum seems to bring out those 5%'ers at Frontier, and at each airline, giving them a place to voice their irrational, ignorant positions. And yes, many times they are “firing for effect” just hoping to provoke a response, it’s easier to simply ignore them.

I believe the only real angst Frontier pilots feel is directed at the IBT and the manner in which their representatives behaved during and after the SLI. The exception to that was “The Slate”, it’s a shame they weren’t involved earlier in the process.

There is also the occasional, less than tactful, RAH pilot who openly states, on the jumpseat, that they can hardly wait to take someone’s seat out from under them. Those pilots are rare and are not representative of the RAH pilot group as a whole.

I know this because I have several friends at RAH, whom I consider consummate professionals, who just want a better CBA and to get out of RAH as soon as possible.

Frankly, the Frontier employees have enough to worry about within their own lives and company that most generally they don't think about RAH at all.

Frontier and the other three certificates at RAH have two distinctive and different operations, something RAH Management failed to recognize when purchasing Frontier and trying to “manage” a Branded operation.

Trust me, we are trying our best to get out of your and RAH’s way and let you do what you do best, run a successful and profitable Fee for Departure operation. We actually tried, unsuccessfully, to do just that throughout the SLI process.

Your posts rarely offer anything positive or even educational. You seem bent on spewing vitriolic, inflammatory rhetoric and attack with little or no provocation.

Do you have anything remotely helpful or informative to add to any discussion?

Is there any aspect of your life or in the lives of others that you see as positive?

Overall, the world is a decent place and everyone is not out to cause you grief or make your life miserable.

Tiller, these days, the only person who should be worried about losing my job, is you.
Trying to understand the gibberish. I should be worried about you losing your job?

WOW, Giving the company so much power previously? How dare a business ever try to conduct business, what nerve they have.

Management has historically used check rides to get rid of labor problems. I have no idea how this guy flys but I sincerely hope Teamsters will make them go by the book.

The union gave the company leverage many many times by letting them violate the contract without so much as an attempt to stop them. Now management has the power of past practice. Nothing to do with just trying to run a business.

Wow, 13 pages of posts on the 357 MB in 34 hours, including, “Why did we hear nothing about the double bust?”

The hypothetical question was raised 24 days ago, why did no one else hear anything about the MEA situation until yesterday at 1805 (posted on APC at 1142 yesterday, but common knowledge prior to that) and the rides at RAH until today at 1422?

It seems unlikely that the Union had no idea these events were occurring if it was public enough to make APC 24 days ago.

Well, past practice or not, a TRB isn’t required on a reqal event.
