Good news! Bryan Bedford is on a Regional Airline Association (RAA) special CEO task force to address the "pilot supply" issue.......because......you know......you want to put a guy like Bryan Bedford on a board like that.

I mean, you can't even make up better ******* than this.

All the Regional Airline Association needs to do now is get Hulas Kanodia and Frank Lorenzo on their "special task force" and the RAA will have hit the trifecta!

Oh my god and Steve farrow is on it too, that guy cares less about this industry than any human being on the planet.

First proposal on the table..."how can we train monkeys to operate our planes so we no longer have to pay people. No one is leaving this table until we have a viable solution"

Regional pilots are monkeys...and they are paid bananas...problem solved.

I hear the fat lady singing...

Hey....he is a commercial pilot you know :D

Just another reason to contribute to the ALPA PAC. They're lobbying for Multi-Crew license and it needs to be countered.

Hulas isn't sooooo bad.............................

Hey don't give those clowns any bartering ideas, okay? Next thing you know we'll be paid in produce. Junior man = three potatoes and an over-ripe banana.

Dont forget, Holt is in charge now with his fear tactics and doom/gloom. What a relief we have all these skilled managers to run the RAA!

Yeah, the guy got his job because he was kin to the founder, Richard Henson.

Show me where a dime of ALPA PAC funds is going towards countering multi-crew licenses...or anything that has anything to do with regional pilots.

ALPA PAC is about keeping legacy 777 captains in their seats until they're literally hooked up to IVs in a half-coma en route on transcons, so their main focus is preventing companies like Ethiad and Emirates from hiring us regional clowns straight into 777s and paying us top dollar for it--get your facts straight.
