It's no wonder why people talk shlt about PDT and PSA pilots. Now go to sleep you child, it's past your bedtime.

As for billyho, w tf are you even talking about? Start making some sense and then get back to me.


I'm done with you idiots for tonight. Good luck to the AWAC guys on getting a good TA. They're a RESPECTED pilot group who deserves to be treated as such.
Go back and look at your post! PSA, PSA, PSA, PSA, PSA, PSA.... You work for envoy and PSA screwed us. Oh wait, Piedmont screwed us. But wait you guys still voted yes also. Envoy is so much better??? Give me a break!

Go back to eating your hot dogs.

I want to know where Air Wisconsin gets the money to pay their pilots somewhat appropriately, especially with their uncertain future, and why other regional managements can't do the same.

Good Pilot group and hopefully they will find a home over the next couple of years.

  • They (the owners of AWAC) negotiated well with US Airways when they (along with RAH) saved US Airways, which was close to Ch. 7.
  • They're not up to their eyeballs in debt to pay for brand new (shiny) jets. Flying old, paid-for equipment has it's advantages.
  • They get paid for each completion and AWAC generally completes 99% or more of the flights.

That's a start.

Those who think we can have a contract to allow for growth don't get it. That growth would have to undercut someone else in this industry, perpetuating the whipsaw effect. The company can't offer a flow through agreement like many other wholly owned operators so there must be more on the table. We'll see what happens.

Because you're so deluded that you think lowering the bar even further is justifiable if it will get YOU to a major just a little bit quicker.

This industry is already a joke, and losers like you who care about nothing but airplanes don't see the value in trying to raise the standards. Just because airlines are about cost doesn't mean it's your job to subsidize the feed with your already pathetic paycheck.
