Larry is always nice in person...well as nice as a large ogreish man can be, but still you've got to realize he's not going to air dirty laundry in public or to an employee. Every time I've seen him he's always thanking us for doing such a great job...and then forced us to sign a crappy CPA or go bankrupt. It's just a line.

Yup, had ol'penis head on a DFW-IAH flight a year ago. He waited till everyone got off, thanked us for the great flight, expressed how our product was the best in the regional biz, looked forward to us doing more flying for them, gave his card to both the CA and me, told us to come to CAL and, when we put in our resume to call him.

I am now furloughed with 317 of my bro's. His a politician

Is he to blame for the melt down with xjts branded flying, which in-turn REDUCES the need for xjt pilots?

Yes he is. The CPA CAL forced XJT to sign to say in business called for branded flying to end or no deal. There was no "Melt-Down". They finished with just shy of 90% load factor system wide in their last month. It'd be great if guys would do their homework before posting on here like they know whats going on. If only XJT would go around undercutting every possible pilot group in the USA. Then maybe they could be as successful as CHQ. oo well.

MELTDOWN? Get a clue, this industry would be a lot better off if the other regional airlines out there AT LEAST tried to do something on their own, stand up to BIG BROTHER rather then prostitute themselves like SKW, or become a cancer like CHQ.........

Or they could start flying around "drug planes" or blank aircraft with united colors and no writing on them. Seriously, how can you possibily hold your head up flying an aircraft like this? Nothing like being on a United flight the other day and hearing the captain say "welcome aboard Delta Connection". This is the most unprofessional operation I've even seen. You guys have undercut so many regionals you can't even keep the airline you're "flying for" straight. What an operation. Give me a friggin break.

I don't blame LK for my furlough, I was just trying to point to the OP that LK is a politician. You can't trust any words that come out of his mouth
