Yak Yak:
You are talking nonsense as far as getting rid of seniority.
Either that, or ya are envious of the senior guys? Would you like to climb up their back and take their jobs out of order?
Ya a bit selfish and would like to screw the other guy perhaps?
I can only speculate as you make no sense at all.
This old TowerDog have some experience flying for companies with and without a proper seniority system. Needless to say, the vast majority of proffesional pilots prefer and demand seniority. It is the only fair way of doing business from our standpoint.
Not sure which planet you are from, but wish you the best of luck:
Call back when you have grown up and gained some experience, you may see things different then. (If not, you could make a career kissing managment ass, no seniority needed...
)
Saab 2000 Driver:
Thanks for thinking of me and the low initial salary here in the US.
raas 767 is indeed doing something about the situation: He has bought me dinner a few times as well as mucho beer.
The Guvnor:
Aye, if ya want good pilots to work for ya, industry wages and a seniority system is a good begining. Much as ya don't like it.
With that being said, it seems that 9/11 created a surplus of pilots and the price will go down as a result.
Many airline/commuter pilots will run off to the local airport shortly looking for a flight instructors job.
(Perhaps even yours truly...There must be a reason I kept my instructor ticket current over the years..
)
You coming back to FLL soon? If so call me and we will go to Durty Harry's and have beer 'n wings. raas 767 will be there too.
Perhaps we can get ya straight on the seniority issue.....
Edited for spelling, or the lack off...
