Too bad you're four days too late and the joke was for the other guy.

Too bad you and Mav will continue to drive everyone on this forum to insanity with all your bull**** comments. Did you always want to be a TSA cheerleader?

No...I came on this forum to help future TSA pilots. But people like you come on this forum and ruin it. None of your posts has helped any new hires. All you have done is fired shots at CB, Mav, and myself. I'm done going head to head with you. If you want to have questions answered about the company, then I'll gladly answer them.

They've said critical things about this company as have I. Just because I say things that could be seen as favoring the company does not mean I'm a Cheerleader. You want to see cheerleaders? Go over to the Mesa thread and listen to every single one of them talk about how amazing their company is and how they are a for sure yes vote without even setting the contract. Have to pay $500 for your own ipad? "Well I like it because I can put my own stuff on it. " Lowest paid pilots in the industry? "Listen guys, JO told us they have tiny margins. They can't pay us more so why ask?"

Just because I won't condemn Lidos solely because they cost the company less is not a "concession."

Was on a TSA jump seat the other day and saw that you guys don't even use your loaned iPads. When I asked, they crew said half of the people can't figure out how to interpret the charts. Really? Is it that slow of a pilot group or are you guys just trying to get jepps pushed through?

We are prohibited from using the ipads for charts during flight until FAA authorizes it. Also, none of the ipads have the subscription anymore because Lufthansa made a new app which apparently has to go back through our lovely POI to get certified. It took 2 years for the POI to sign off using personal headsets. See the problem?

Yeah, I think I see the problem. I also heard that there is a 50% turn over rate of CQFOs. Is this accurate? If so, it doesn't speak to well for TSA. I mean if guys are bailing after 5 months on property, something must be wrong. How do you guys plan on growing when you can't even keep new hires on property for a year. Also, this probably won't help attract any new CQFOs.

I believe we were specifically instructed to not use the IPad Lidos until further notice. Unless I missed a memo, we are to only use the iPad for company manuals at the moment. Truth be told, most people are just hoping for a Jepp subscription on the iPad. And BBW, why don't you give your mouth a rest bro. Your post history doesn't exactly paint you as an intellectual.

I haven't heard that. Funny how you have and don't work here. Also, I hope the ones that left are the tools who suffer from small man syndrome.

There is turnover among CQFOs, but not nearly 50%. Most that leave are leaving for legacy, LCC or ULCC jobs. It isn't all sunshine and rainbows but we aren't seeing catastrophic turnover either.
