Left seat of 757 first IOE. Thought I was done flying with scabs, but lo and behold, a scab LCA shows up. Didn't talk much that IOE, came off the guppy/Shuttle, so didn't need much instruction.

Right up to the point we were over BOS rt downwind over the airport at 8,000 ft, and the controller says, "I don't believe it UAL, you're #1, cleared for the visual, 4R, keep it in tight." Mind you, 8,000 over the airport.

I thought that scab was going to suck up the seat cushion, major but crawl in the seat! I had fun, but him, not so much! Rolled out on final, 500', on speed, on glide path...

Scabs tend to do that......anytime they are not spoon dribbled on to an 8 mile final they suck seat cushion.....flying skill and scab are not compatable.......always been that way near as I can tell...

They weren't hired for their skills. They were hired for their innate scumbaggedness.

early 2000 Guppy FO

DEN-BOI-DEN-EWR
EWR-ORD-MEM
MEM-ORD-PBI (limo to MIA)
MIA-ATL-DEN (yup, we used to fly MIA-ATL)

2006 320 FO

The verbiage has changed a little. Now they say, "ATC clears United 155 to descend at pilot's discretion to FL55, then cruise FL55 to the Kwajalein Airport."

Challenge......accepted, dirty up the bird and dive, dive, dive.:D

Random Steep Herk approach.

IOE, BWI abeam the numbers at 7000, cleared visual, keep it tight...giddyup

They were hired because they had a pulse and said yes during a strike.. They had dodgy or little real aviation qualifications, and you can extend that to personal qualifications. They said yes because they knew they had little chance of ever getting hired by any decent airline.

I had the distinct displeasure of sitting next to scabs on both "sides" of the new UAL. I always thought UAL scabs were weirdos because we tripped them like (rap their entire careers. Turns out they were just weirdos before they showed up. LCAL scabs came from the same mother, and the same school.

IMHO

Looks like pretty similar to some of our ERJ 4-days. Damn tragedy if you ask me.

Indeed, we used to do the ERJ flying. Are you stupid? Do you even know what a 737-200 is?

Uhmmmmmmm.

I don't know how to break this to you captain obvious but let's try the direct approach. You don't seem to much of subtle detail kind of a guy.

In the days of the 727 and the 737-200 at UAL there were NO RJs. So yeah dude that is the flying that has been stolen by RJs. Which might be why it looks familiar to you? Doncha think?
