Diarrhea in a freighter?
I haven't been on this site in years--even longer since I last looked at this thread (think I posted here sometime in '05!) I can't believe it's still going. Someone needs to turn it into a book and publish it... I mean, wow. -

I realize a lot of people freaked out about my penis, but I'm not representing anyone as a pilot or anything else. Represent yourself as you see fit. It's rutherford.org. They're good people and I highly recommend them if anyone needs counsel pertaining to any of this. Contact me too if I can... -

Another Pilot Rejects TSA's Abuse
I think I mentioned this on another thread, but thought it was worth starting a new one for anyone not following along there. Article originally posted at FedUpFlyers.org: FLL – 11/4/10 – Pilot Ann Poe On Thursday November 4th TSA prevented me from taking my commuter flight to EWR to... -

Express Jet Pilot says "NO" to scanner
Many developments in the works. Another pilot has joined the club - canceling a USAir A320 flight in the process (though USAir hasn't divulged the real reason for the cancellation). Stay tuned on that and the other one at CAL that I've mentioned previously - media contact the Rutherford... -

Here's some news... Thought you all might be interested: A CAL 777 FO I've been in contact with just called to tell me she pulled a 'Michael' today. Stay tuned... -

Yeah, that APA statement is huge. I still say any unwelcome, unprovoked contact, even behind closed doors, is still unacceptable. But imagine if everyone - AA crews, other airline employees, and even pax were to adopt this practice. All the private rooms would be occupied, there'd be a line out... -

Not yet - too busy trying to win over the hearts and minds of the sheeple right now. That's a labor of love, but I do need to figure something out to keep food on the table! -

Thanks, I'm actually sleeping okay again and I think I've got my media legs under me now. I did a CNN interview this morning and another local tv thing yesterday without any trouble. "I'm feeling much better now.." [crazy grin] I'm using facebook as my central point of communication now if... -

Express Jet Pilot says "NO" to scanner
I don't know. I need to find something to put food on the table pretty soon, though. Right now I'm just trying to reach hearts and minds about what's happening in our country. People are waking up and overwhelmingly supportive, but few seem to have the kind of resolve it's going to take to stop... -

Yes, I had a full hour to let it rip. 4-5 minutes on live tv only gives me a chance to blurt out a few bullet points. I'm refining that 'elevator pitch' and getting more sleep now, so those gigs are improving, but the radio show above gives a lot more depth of perspective for those who are... -

Express Jet Pilot says "NO" to scanner
Dude, please remove that CNN disaster. I begged the attorneys not to make me do it, knowing I hadn't slept in three days (which seemed like a lot at the time, till I went six more after that). Had to get it in front of the peeps, though. And if making an ass of myself is the price of freedom, so... -

Yeah, CNN was a fustercluck. All last week was... intense. I didn't sleep for nine days. Didn't even know you could do that. I told my counselors I was an F'd up wreck and couldn't go on tv, but I guess it had to be done. I've had a little rest and am hoping future appearances won't be so... -

The following is an excerpt from an email I just received, followed by a link to a 1 hr. radio program where I had the opportunity to explain myself in more detail than I've been able to do elsewhere: 1 hr. Don Cooper radio interview. This is a show that covers economics and some political... -

Well, today was the day
My name is Michael Roberts, and I am a pilot for ExpressJet Airlines (that is, I still am for the time being). This morning as I attempted to pass through the security line for my commute to work I was denied access to the secured area of the terminal building at Memphis International Airport. I... -

Are we suffering from the "Stockholm Syndrome?"
Sadly, I think you're right. And I think it's a very good point. Somehow, the pilots - especially the union types - are the very ones touting the argument that if we don't take concessions we're going to ruin our companies, because management is already doing all they can and we have to be... -

Acass???
Any recommendations for a good company to get started in the contract side of the biz? I don't really care about location - just looking to make as much money as possible in the next couple years. Wherever it is, I'd want to take my family along though and still be able to enjoy some QOL while... -
