Back to the original idea, I can't remember how many tests NASA has done on fatigue and the effects on the human body. Although; they never seem to get the FAA to impose new flight rules and duty rest... Now JBlue does one test with a few pilots and a doctor with their own definition of what fatigue is, and things my change to a 9 hour day? Give me a brake. I wonder what the actual tests showed? Maybe the pilots showed fatigue with less then 8 hours and they are trying all sorts of formulas to show otherwise....If you put enough money (Lobbying) behind anything, it will get past....LOOK OUT, 9hr, 10hr, 11hr....

From Jetblueto cape air, its the enron of aviation.Well, sort of...

Let the witch hunt begin!

Are you for real? Continental Headquarters is parked right next to the Enron building in IAH.

Stupidity? LOL. Look whoose talking. A Continental pilot who signed a blank check for a concessionary contract and is getin' screwed with it?! The same pilot group who recently elected a scab as MEC Chairman who stole from the pilot group along with other union members?! Take a look in the mirror pal!

At least the Continental pilot did'nt WILLINGLY break FAR rules!

Hmm. I wouldn't say that. Continental had some questionable Europe flights that needed IRO's that didn't have them as I do recall.

Besides about 700-800 of Continental pilots willing cross legal picket lines.

My point is, don't go pointing the finger at other airlines when you don't have yours in check.

No, your logic is kind of messed up. You completely misunderstood the definition you used to justify yourself and, sadly, I can almost imagine you laughing maniacally as you pasted it into your post. I have to admit now that I'm a little, although morbidly, curious to see what you'll come up with.

(4) : one who works for less than union wages or on nonunion terms.

There are no union wages or terms at JetBlue.

No ****, Sherlock.

I stand by my words and I am not your pal! You remind me of a politician who tries to get approval by running everybody and everything around him down so he or she looks so much better. I challenge you to stand on your own merits and defend your position rather than throw rocks at others. How is this fiasco at JB helping our industry? How is working a 100 seat airplane at substandard wages helping our industry? Insulting others won't answer these questions.
