The majority of the pilots at Commutair weren't in the industry or even out of high school when the scope debate took place in the 90's. Most if not all have walked into a situation you should have known about beforehand. Don't blame legacy pilots for your poor decision making.

Did you need a legacy pilot to do your research for you? Seems you can't seem to take care of yourself or accept any responsibility for where you are in life. Maybe that is why many of you fail the personality test?

Thanks for the laugh. I'll believe it when I see it. Maybe they're too busy cleaning up the mess that comes with beating up your pax or chasing down psycotic pilots to really let it show.

Now I see why you are destined to a life in an RJ.

On the doctor issue.

1. The good Dr was on (surprise!) a United Express flight that was last minute overbooked with United Express pilots by the United Express carrier crew desk.

2. The Dr was removed by Chicago Aviation Officers (not by a United employee)

3. The Dr. failed to comply with the CAO directives and told them they would have to drag him off.

The crazy pilot, she was an EEOC hire. She was the by product of the government telling you who you have to hire over who you want to hire. I have flown with plenty of them over the years.....


Looks like you guys are holding the line as the worst performing UAX carrier, congratulations.

Key terms "HAD"..... To stay competitive you must adapt and recruit more than our competitors unless the purpose is to "fail" intentionally.

Lad, progress was made while you were trying to learn how to buckle a seat belt.

How about your group selling out the rest of the regional pilots with sub standard pay and working conditions just to get your hands on a jet and steal the contracts services from other pilots. Guess it doesn't bother you that you and your lot have lowered the bar.

I'm quiet happy with our contract and scope provisions. We are taking back many regional cities and holding the line on scope.

What have you people done to make the industry better?
Yes I am younger than you. So sorry about that.

Now where do I even begin? No, CommutAir did not take consessions to acquire new airplanes. Actually, we signed in improvements to our contract. It still sucks, but it got better. How in your little mind does that equate to selling out? Please explain.

Yes you guys are finally holding the line on scope after you and your friends already sold the industry out. You are not taking back regional cities. Show me where in your contract you have successfully taken back scope and have taken back "many regional cities".

Resuming Mainline service on June 8th to CID, GCA, MTY, SBA and SYR. This is in addition to many mainline resumptions to cities earlier in the year. We even have a SFO-SMF in a 737 again. Where did we take back scope? We have a limit on large RJ's and the 50 seaters are killing themselves with cost. When is the last time someone ordered a new 50 seat RJ in the USA?

Please don't be sorry about being younger. I have fewer years remaining but I have retirement to look forward to happily

So you can have more time to troll regional forums. Hahahaha.

Can someone please ask an intelligent question on topic so we can stop this drivel?
