Well this page certainly lives up to it's name about being a rumors page. However, it dosen't live up to being profesional, with coments that are being made by folks like TELLTHETRUTH.
The negative ones that are doing all the complaining , are just jealous that others may have been chosen ,and they have recieved a "FOND" letter. If people are going to slam induvidauls withinSAG, then maybe you should base what your saying on FACTS, not romors and hear say. Maybe if TELLTHETRUTH feels so confident in what he or she is saying, then maybe step out from behind the handle, and tell us who you really are. Or are you just afraid that if SAG gets going soon, and your name is found out, that all hopes of employment with them will be done? Lets face it. You and every other pilot in Canada, would love to be sitting in a seat of a 47 based out of YVR.
I hope that the gear are in the wells soon!
I'm sure the ones that are hired will let us know how good it really is!:ok:

Hmmm...
 

Very Insightful Jumba.

I'll tell you what - you hold your breath until an aircraft shows up, and if Service Air ever flies a 747, I'll eat my hat, and will gladly stand in front of their office wearing a clown suit.

In the meantime, I think most people know who the clown is, and those who don't will find out soon enough, or maybe the lies are thick enough to keep this BS dream alive for another year or so!

What's the new 'start date', or has it been pushed ahead 6 months for the 11th time?

As for my identity, that's none of your business. You are not forced to agree with me, and I am under no obligation to lay my cards on the table - don't confuse that with a desire to work for SAG. Sure, a 747 seat ex YVR would be great, but so would the left seat in the next Shuttle mission, and there is a greater chance of the latter becoming reality.

Now, be sure to plug your nose when you hold your breath...and good luck!!

Fun Fun Fun!
 

In Big Red Letters... :

"As these are anonymous forums the origins of the contributions may be opposite to what may be apparent. In fact the press may use it, or the unscrupulous, to elicit certain reactions."

Apparently, SAG has 'roped' in more 'dopes'!

How long will the game go on? When will it end? Who will be voted off the Island...stay tuned for more entertainment!!

Well TTT, I see you've made some more friends..

Nice to know that you have the personality that attracts people.

I guess if you really had a job in this business you wouldn't be so negative. Maybe you would be able to understand that sometimes people do things right without your input.

When I read these forums and see the morons (like you and STC)that use it as an outlet for their negativity, all I see is people who are lacking the skills to be regular members of society.

If you have any real evidence that this operation is not going to go, then please bring it to the table. I would love to see your evidence.

If not, maybe you should learn that all you are doing is making people come to the conclusion that it is you that is wrong, not Service Air and the people trying to create employment.

If you still have to whine, and hack, :yuk: and puke like a little girl, then you should just get a life.. If not let us know who you are and why you know these things cause, I, for one am saying that you are full of crap little boy...

Phil

Ouch!
 

I have only ever wanted people to ask questions, lots of them, and dig deep to avoid being screwed...you guys get pretty personal! Talk about anti-social behaviour.

For evidence, one need only rotate gently into YVR on 26L and have a look out the left window to see that a Shorts-360 is the largest aircraft parked on the ramp at the Jet Center...

If you guys have all of the answers, pray-tell when will the 3 747 freighters be delivered?

So TTT I guess the Dash 7's and 8's along with the Convairs and F-27's are smaller than the Shorts... I would guess that means you have never had the oppourtunity to look out the left window and see such things..

I guess that shows what you really know about what's happening at YVR.. Nice to hear an expert like yourself beak off..

Phil

Hey snotbox..

Are you the same guy with the padded logbook problem??

Phil

Phil, don't be an idiot...you sound like a Star Trek nerd grasping at technicalities and straws.

F-27's, Dash 7's or 8's, Convair 580's...add up all the numbers and you still don't get to 3 x 747!

There are so many sheep running blindly around YVR, I'm afraid to land!

OUCH
 

Well there's bad news for the SAG flag wavers...

Here's the CTA's take on them:

Probably 'not a problem' right JD??

Maybe you should READ the ruling before you run around slagging people. You probably go out of your way to find negative things about this company so you can post them. I know, I should read the big red sentance at the bottom of the page.

Since when is a 747 a small airplane?

How Big?
 

How big is Service Air's 747? Oh right...they don't have one - or an AOC!

Star trek nerd... :mad: Now that's hitting below the belt.

TTT I was merely commenting on your lack of knowledge regarding the aircraft at YVR. You were the one saying that there was nothing bigger than a Shorts 360, so before you get all high and mighty, as usual, you should think before you open your cake hole.. You like to trash people for any reason you can,however, you don't seem to do your own homework.

No, there is not a 747 sitting on the ramp today. Do you have any idea of the enormity of beaurocratic problems that can be involved in a startup like this.. Maybe JD was a little optimistic in his proposed start dates, but he is still going forward with his plans. I'm quite confident you will see a 74 on the ramp in their colours one day soon.

When people like yourself, snotbox, and STC get off your soapboxes, and realise that you are only making fools of yourselves, maybe then you will be able to learn some real facts about this industry.

Phil

Paper Tiger and all the rest of you guys who care
 

CK 707 and CK710 are being operated by Kalitta. I flew 710 all last month. There are more classes in the works and we are all working as much overtime as we wish. My commute from the Kootenays is a bit of a bear but I,m happy to be back with Connie as I too applied with Service Air but got no replies back from them. Too bad, I would have liked to work out of YVR. Oh well, at least I have a job. :ok:

Attention Flagwavers:
 

Blah blah blah...blah blah blah, blah! blah blah - blah...blah? Blah blah blah, blah blah, blah blah!!!

That's all I've heard from guys like you for well over a year!!!

Honestly, genuinely, and sincerely, I would rather hear the roar of Pratt's or Royce's on the wings of a 747 departing YVR. Perhaps you can understand my, and other's frustration considering the track record of this company, and the disposable workforce JD has 'employed' over the past few years.

Perhaps some posts appear abrasive over this medium, but seriously - there comes a point where all you can do is shake your head and laugh at the circus full of attempted start-ups, empty promises and grandiose dreams.

Shake shake shake...

Ah Well...
 

I'm a little disappointed, no witty replies from the 'reality' protesters...

And what reply would you like??

You admitted that you would like to see them make a go of it. I'm glad that you finally agree. Maybe instead of shooting them down you should encourage them to keep trying, it's good for everyone. At least they are trying.

I'm sure, that given the oppourtunity, you would not reject a seat in a 74 out of YVR. So, with that given, then why do you want to sewer yourself with all the trash talk.

Maybe it's taking a while, but we all know the hoops that need to be jumped through to make an operation like this work. Some days it seems like it might go tommorrow, the next you have another 6 months dealing with the beaurocrats to deal with.

Give these guys a chance. Like I said, at least they are trying. If they do make it, it's great for everyone. If they don't, well, who's losing other than them..

Phil

Phil, you should read back through my posts. I have always said that a Canadian start-up would be great, and I'm all for it. However, JD is a waste of skin, and I would hate to see anyone get screwed by him. That's the problem - he won't be the only one to lose.

Either way, good luck. Keep the rubber side down.

Well ttt, you'll have to enlighten me on how he can screw anyone..

Ahem...
 

Phil et al...

I just realised...this forum is a complete waste of my time! We might as well be arguing the second coming - only Jesus knows when.

Have fun and good luck...

Well, good on ya ttt for finally giving up on your silly tirade against a company that at least is trying..

If they make it or not it not for us to decide.. However when I see a person at least trying, I feel hope for our crappy industry in this country..

I really hope more will try..

Phil

What, nobody else with a silly tirade against a company who is trying??? Come on you folks.. somebody else should start up where ttt gave up...

TTT wouldn't even let us know who he/she was to prove that they had any proof in what they were saying... They stirred up a lot of !!!!! and left it at that... No proof of what they were spouting.. Kinda sad isn't it....

Anyhow good luck to JD and the rest of the people at Service Air.. I am looking forward to seeing and airplane with your logo on it soon..

Phil
