Pity that the thread took the usual turn.

It started off well. I was quite suprised the number of masalamas from the 320's. Then again, most of us from the area can guess why.

Just came back from the Second road show. All I have to say is " Massalama Gulf Air".

It was similar to last week, no changes at all. About 40-60 pilots showed up.

I feel kinda sorry for AD, BN and GF generally. They just can't afford to keep pilots from leaving. GF just doesn't have money to keep them.


Good luck trying to make a profit, YOU WON'T.

Thanx for the good memories, I'll miss all the good people.

Nope, man, same old same old.

One guy actually asked about what their break-even figure regarding pilots resigning vs training new guys was...but presented with this, they looked as if just having been introduced to the fact, that the moon was made of green cheese.

take it or leave it

The one thing that I conclude from that road show was take it or leave it
Do you all agree…..?

Brassplate,

If everyone was in your line of thinking, then this forum should cease to exist!

I am glad to say howwever that you have managed to contradict yourself several times in the entries that you have posted and therefore lost any credibility to the eyes of the professional public reading this forum.

Please continue to post with you opinions, they are enlightening and very much tell us what some of the understandibly less superior being flying airplanes these days are thinking.

How you ever made it into this industry and what your CRM abilities are is something we can open in another forum and when we will have time to deal with it past this crisis.

MH,
understandably (corrected spelling for such a superior being as yourself), you may think of contradictions on my part from my previous posts. So now, let me tell you about CRM.
Firstly, I've made comments based on the situation at the time. Would you call it bad CRM when comments and decisions were made based on the information available at the time?
Secondly, when I've made those so called 'contradictions', is it bad CRM to changed decisions when the circumstances warranted it?
Thirdly, I certainly hope you're not a CRM instructor since you've made quite a flawed judgement of me based on my posts on this forum, most of which are designed to extract unofficial but possibly useful information/reactions.
Meanwhile, please work on your grammar/spelling/and the rest of it lest you really do embarrass the flying fraternity.

Ultimately, one's allegiance should be for themselves. (It's animosity. Please get a dictionary man.) And that is evident by the enormous migration of GF pilots to the east. I'm sure even you would take it up the @$$ for a price.
