There is this captain that as soon as he's off the runway, he's typing away on the acars while he's trying to taxi and get the lights and ground spoilers. I guess he doesn't trust me sending the landing report after blocking in.

No email or comment from our union. They send out emails about all sorts of things nobody cares about, but nothing on this?

Go Jets gets a flow through. What do we get? A reverse Flow through to GO Jets as a Captain if we Furlough? Oh that is right, ALPA isn't getting anything for us in this deal.

Spoke to a younger GoJet pilot the other day, they said most of the pilots there were laughing about it, why take a pay cut to to come sit right seat at Spirit when they can build 121 PIC time for more money where they are..... this "flow" might work for a dozen pilots that live in one of spirits bases but that's about it, a PR stunt mostly.

This is a very poor attitude and generalization regarding an entire pilot group. The best thing we have going at Spirit are the crews we get to fly with each day; let's not lose that with assumptions like this towards our new hire pilots.

We never know everything that is going on in another persons life and maybe there is a very good reason someone is prolifically texting between flights. If it's affecting flight ops then by all means address it but if not then to each his own.

Let's not eat our own, we have enough negative sh*t going on already.
