like someone said a while back, Lindbergh is rolling over in his grave right now knowing that GJ is using his name as their callsign

Might want to check your facts a bit, their rates are very middle-of-the-road among CR7 operators.

Meh. Name a company that doesn't.

While this is true, in any list of a$$clowns (mgmt) there are the extremes. When it comes to airline management, there are a few names that take the cake for being the worst of the worst....a couple off the top of my head...

That's the spirit.

Don't forget the management at every airline that lined up to head into bankruptcy court post-9/11 just to keep their costs "competitive".

Don't be so arrogant to think you're above it all Jerry. Laughing while you look down at us from your ivory tower is at the very least inviting some pretty bad kharma.

Hey, have some respect! He did come straight from the military.

Block doesn't tell the whole story bud. I also wouldn't be too proud of a middle-of-the-road contract that was signed in some cases years after others flying that equipment.

If management was so good, why did GJ need a union? Maybe they got sick of 14 days on the road with their required days off at an outstation rather than home.
