JetBlue CEO on pilot’s mid-air meltdown: ‘It started medical, but clearly wasn’t’
I'm unaware of any other occupation in which a breakdown would incur criminal charges. Even if he was a physician in the OR, I doubt criminal charges would even be considered. Very unfortunate... -
Operation Orange
You have obviously not read the page, or the proposal to the RLA because your assertions regarding the intent and implementation are wrong. Read the RLA, and then read the content of their proposal. Once you have done that, then try coming on here with a coherent argument that's not based on... -

Anything is possible. With enough support, there's no reason this can't work. -

There's a fence, but as soon as the terms are up, all seats are fair game. I believe it's seven years. -

I would think this approach would backfire horrendously. Those without PIC time might be more apt to leave B6 for a legacy or more secure LCC based on insecurities around our future. They know that their resume won't look as good as those with a few thousand hours PIC and multiple types. Other... -

1. As previously stated all airlines would pay the minimum. It's not about stealing from the wealthy or fortunate to feed the poor, this is to do away with a system that fusses you to an airline for life. No pilot would bump another pilot out of his seat at a new airline; however, if American... -

Rational solutions will not prevail. Execs will prevail, and subsequently bail with billions. I appreciate your enthusiasm for capitalism and the free market; however, we don't work in anything resembling a free market. Have you read the RLA? None of the other trade groups you mentioned have... -

If you take the time to read the full proposed legislation, you will see that someone is already trying to make this pay scale happen. It's worth your time to read the text. 4-7 of 8 operationorange.org 2. Minimum hourly rates of pay for payable hours in section 4.F shall be: a. $300.00... -

May not ever happen, but I commend them for doing something to fix the problems. http://www.operationorange.org/ -

Jetblue buying Eagle
Absolutely! Although, I'm not sure that this is even by managements design. We seem to be doing a fine job of dividing ourselves without their assistance, despite the fact that the vast majority of the pilot group wants the same things. -
Jetblue buying Eagle
There are not, nor have there been any facts in this thread. It's all rhetoric designed to illicit negative emotional response. That's the way all these boards go. Arguing is pointless and a waste of time. On a side note, you and the rest of the individuals on here and Bluepilots that continue... -

JetBlue anti-union rhetoric
I never doubted that you do, B6. My statements were not meant as a personal attack or an accusation. It's obvious that you're very passionate about this election and I'm sure you have very good reasons why. I'm not at all ant-union, I'm just very skeptical of ALPA because of what I've seen in... -

JetBlue anti-union rhetoric
Not at all... Don't confuse a lack of self entitlement with hubris. I've seen how volatile this career is, and I'm making appropriate plans for if/when this industry kicks me to the curb. I'm no better than any other pilot, and have no special skill or experience that give me immunity from... -
JetBlue anti-union rhetoric
This company, this industry, and even Dave himself don't owe me a thing! If this company fails, I fall to illness, or I screw up, it's my responsibility. ALPA will not save my job, or my career, nor do I expect them to. It's nobody's responsibility to take control of my future other than myself... -
JetBlue anti-union rhetoric
That's all ALPA has to offer; A false sense of security against outside forces they have no control over. -
