AirlineCrew.Net
 

Hi Dany,

when we started with AirlineCrew.Net on of the first topics on our forums was yours:

"Nice bulletin board; reminds me of home!"

I just had a look at your bulletin board and I noticed you changed the colours, I guess now it is my turn to say:

"Nice colours; reminds me of home

:D

best regards,

Captain Gossip

P.S. This time I did not include our (nice) banner; hope it will not be deleted.. :D

Did a quick surf of AirlineCrew.net:

Seems to be mostly for and about cabin crew.

(One Flaps 40 is plenty enough....
:D )

Seems a bit quiet to me; half the threads are dead.
If you want Gossip Capt., get on PPRuNe. :D :D

sky9, it is a bit quiet, you are right. When I tried to open this topic, in the mean time I read almost all active topics today aon AirlineCrew.Net.. ( that says something about the speed of Pprune as well.. :D )

We have only 1800 members, we just do it for fun.

Pprune is a great site, but why don't you give AirlineCrew.Net a chance now and then?

best regards

TowerDog,
I am sure that Flap's articulate posts are way too much for the average pilot, but you shouldn't be worried, we can provide explanations with drawings and footnotes if you are in trouble :D :D :D

Uhhh Captain Gossip, I´m having a bit of a problem getting to the site.

I get the following message :

This is the placeholder for domain airlinecrew.net. If you see this page after uploading site content you probably have not replaced the index.html file.

Nothing like home, the real home i.e. PPRuNe !

It's back now, Saab.

Saab,

we were changing hosting company at that day. Sorry about that. downloading and uploading all files takes about 15 hours..
Even with a small bulletin board like ours :)

best regards

Isn't this just a little bit too much like PPRuNe???

FlyBlue:

Thanks for the offer.
Do you give flying lessons too?

:D

The image-feature is quite nice, but home is still PPRuNe

Of courses I do, but just to real talented pilots, huge-egoed big mouth old battleaxes please refrain.
If you match the requirements :rolleyes: queue up with the others and wait for your turn :p

Cheers

Fabulous Flyblue

Hi Captain Gossip, I’ve just had a quick browse through that site of yours.

It seems to be full of pilot hating F/A’s. If I were to trot out the drivel that they seem happy to spout, I would be shredded in an instant. (Quite rightly so)

I have never received a satisfactory answer to the question why they get so upset when someone makes an assumption about them based on their profession and yet they seem for the most part, happy to make the same assumptions about pilots.

I and I suspect that the majority people want to be judged on who you are and not what you do for a living.

My significant other is an F/A and I won’t be posting her answer to that question here. It’s not very flattering to some of the more shrewish F/A’s that seem to frequent that site of yours.

In short “viva PPRuNe”

Don't have no big ego, nor big mouth, just very talented. :D

Hmm, there is a line of pilot's waiting for your flying lessons?
How high do you take 'em?

Is it worth the wait?
Perhaps I should sign up and fly into the Blue Sky? ;)

Hi MikeSamuel,

of course it looks like pprune; we are using the same script.. The colors is about the only thing you can choose and like I told the colors you see here were chosen by me, not by pprune. But no hard feelings at all, Prune was there first of course and I could only dream of the number of visitors Dany has..

I started with things like weather, humour, and also email for pilots and flight attendants. Now you can also find it here, but I think CrewStart.com is the first airline crew portal. ( and there we do have 4000+ visitors daily..)

Max_cont,

I do agree that "you want to be judged on who you are and not what you do for a living" Well, although my nickname is Captain Gossip, I am a flight attendant, working for KLM. I think however that it would be great to see some more pilots on our site. Why don't give it a try and you will see that Airline Crew.Net is not
"full of pilot hating F/A’s"...

best regards,

Captain Gossip

Max Cont,
not a very constructive post.
You make lots of assumptions, without considering that lots of Crewstart guests are also Ppruners, of course with a different handle. And speaking of who-hates-who, just go to the CC Forum on Pprune and look for the CSD thread, or the CC salary thread that went on some time ago. Not very edifying indeed. Conclusion, morons are equally shared by both sites and both sides (F/A and pilots), no one wins the contest (I am saying that to be politically correct. Of course F/A win :D PS: we also win the humour contest).

Of course Crewstart is much smaller, but it is a very friendly place on my opinion, and I must add that Paul's courtesy on treating the site's guests has no equal ("Hallo Paul!" :) )

Ah, so Airline Crew.Net is run by a stew and frequented by stews?

Cool, now PPRuNe can be a real pilot's forum as the guys and the girls (or whatever) in the back will hang out at that other place...?

(Now if the engineers could make their own site as well)

:cool:

Hi flyblue,

thanks for the compliment! I checked in our database for a "flyblue" but couldn't find it.. What is your AirlineCrew.Net log-in? Just curious..

best regards

He he Captain Gossip,
you have not so many working for AF ;) !

TowerDog
1) Who's a stew???! :eek:
2) hope it will eventually happen, so you will be left to get bored to death in the company of your likes (YAWN!) :D :D :D
(and I don't mean by that "all pilots". Just the few ones who like other pilots only company)

PS
Are you maybe...HOMOSEXUAL??? :eek: You know, just male company...one might wonder... :D
In this case I suggest you pay a visit in the Crewstart "Gay section".

Cheers!

Flyblue,
the misogynist pilot's nemesis :D (oops! guess I'm speaking too erudite for someone!)

FlyBlue:

Stew: Steward/Stewardess= An employee on a ship or airplane who serves passengers.

Like in the good old days when Pan-Am was king and the stews were all female, 25, single and pretty.

I am homosexual?
Not according to all my satisfied girlfriends... :D

Thanks for the offer to visit the gay stew forum, but not my cup of tea.
Enjoy.
