Atlantic Airlines Upgrades !!

God, viper look at the big picture - you are working on a pointless type for a low pay cargo set up.Don't worry about an upgrade, worry about getting out and where might have you ?
All your 20T TP time is worthless to a heavy jet operator, I struggle to see what ME airline would even contemplate you as an FO.
Or would you rather have HSBC put 'Captain' on your chequebook, are you one of those ?

They were probably sodding glad to get rid of you, you whining little cretin.
Air freight in general is not in great shape at the moment (and I see and have seen the effects on various parts of the industry), so lets hear how your business case.....how would you run an airline?
viperstings...you rank up there with AC too.
What a right pair of....

In my time, they used all those excuses and more.

BTW, pretty repugnant username considering the 12 British servicemen that lost their lives on this vessel
So what's been happening over at Cov then, any pay rises or upgrades? When are they saying the Electra is going, 2089 at the earliest?

AC,
I don't know what I did to offend you...? i'm not looking down my nose at anyone, just a reality check. Everyone in this game thinks their hours are really useful - truth is they aren't. The only hours that count for the bigger stuff have Boeing or Airbus next to them.
I'd love to know who you work for, I can probably guess, but your big operator (its obviously not BA) wants you to be 'part of the success', so you obviously believe that kind of bullsh&t.
And yes, I did apply for all the ME airlines - why not ?
i love your take on Astraeus, 'cashtraeus' was it ? Never actually heard that one. I will take it from that , that you paid for a TR but didn't get employed ?
That level of bitterness normally comes from that direction.

The big ugly Conveyor Troll leapt onto the bridge gnashing his yellow rotting teeth, but the Coventry fug wasn't afraid he just stamped his feet and charged. Up, up in the air went the balding Troll, then down, down he came.....SPLASH the Troll landed in the middle of the Vltava and was never seen again.....until he surfaced belly up in the Elbe muttering " I'm with a big operator and they really do care about me......

Well done Viper, I'm sure you will be sadly missed.
But an interview isn't a job offer, and I've known some good guys not get through that one.
And of course then you'll be climbing a cliff with the A320 TR.
No doubt you'll be back to inform us of your progress in due time.

He who makes most noise etc etc....
Oh dear Atlantic Conveyor...... For a guy (or girl) who left AA some time ago you love to keep throwing stones at your former employer.

Keep at it guys, Atlantic is not the worst employer and there is no perfect employer. No business cares about you beyond what is good for them but there is better out there than a pay cut every year and the casual imcompetence of the people who drive the Atlantic show.

At the risk of being horribly flamed, I have to say that it seems to this lowly Coventry PPL that the AA crew(s) who have spent the last few hours flying circuits in the freshly repaired Electra must feel that they have had a good day at work!
It's been a joy to see and I hope the second one is repaired again soon as well.

You won't be flamed for that comment!! T'was great to get her back in to the air again.
Sadly I think it'll be a while before the other is ready to fly again, but fingers crossed it's not too long.

The pay is still rubbish for us here @ AA FO basic is around 22K and CAPT around 45k on the ATP. It was good to see the Electra back flying but sadly AA will find themselvse very short of crew to fly it. With the 3 people already leaving for better jobs from the Electra fleet I know of two more who have got Interviews with Monarch not that will own up to it!! Friend of a friend works in recruitment for Monarch have talk about another 2 pilots from AA.

AC,
'capable pilots trying to get along ' - you appear to irritate at least 50 % of the posters on here. It's your whole tone, your whole egotistical tone that winds me up.
As for unemployment - I do actually still fly funnily enough, fortunately I don't get to sit with b*llends like you for 8 hours.
So you left Atlantic, and you applied for Monarch.So what are you a flexicrew now ? If so i wouldn't criticise the 'pay to fly fools' as you call them.
