    I'm a little older than Joe but have no problems respecting the man. His record speaks for itself. His demonstrated love for his family and the steadfast loyalty to his planes and the people he serves in the north speaks for it's self. Happy birthday Joe and welcome home.

    57 years ago at the age of 23 I did my first flight in a DC3.
    Coming strait off light aircraft like Dh82 Tiger Moth bi- planes & Cessnas etc with no experience of twin Engine Constant Speed Props, or Retractable gear & 10 hours night experience it was a big jump into the deep end & I was only one of 5 in our group with the same experience. ( We prayed the Capt wouldn't drop dead for the first year - after that he was fair game.) :o)
    Six years on the DC3 & 1,600 hours later I went on to all sorts up to Airbus.
    BTW Nearly all my DC3 flying was with Cyclone R1820's 9 cylinders (same power as the Pratts.)

    What I dont get is you get trained pilots comming to buffalo and then not flying for months because they have to drive parcels about the place. So their flying skills get rusty. Surely you want a current pilot to fly. I dont get their philosophy at all!!

    • @kiwidiesel
      @kiwidiesel 2 года назад +5

      A Lot of the time it is to weed out the wannabes and overnighters. The cost to certify a pilot on type is significant and many over the years at nearly all places have got there ratings on the company and then promptly left to work for some one else. I have seen it alot before so places like Buffalo use ramp work as a way to teach the ground operations and then hopefully anyone still around is the real deal. Joe said it himself in one of the clips, he needs 6 months minimum from them if he is to give them a check ride.

    • @markclark-lewis2600
      @markclark-lewis2600 2 года назад

      @kiwidiesel yes that makes sense but can really understand how the rampys feel. Maybe they should be told they have at least 6months ground work or have to sign a contract that obliges them to work for at least 2yrs.

    This has got to be the one of the worst companies ever as far as concern for the employees. No one deserves to be treated with such disdain by managers. Hostility is an insidious acid that will cause mental illness in extreme cases. I recall all of the USPS and military rage shootings. This is what this company is cooking up. Sometime they are going to eat it.

If Canada has a great healthcare system, why did Joe have to come to the United States (a Mayo Clinic location in Arizona) to get a physical?

I know that many Canadians cross the border daily and come to Detroit (and other U.S. cities) to pay for their health care out of their own pocket, due to deficiencies in coverage and treatments in Canada.

    they're just coming after Joe because they don't like him due to past interactions, Been watching the show since it started back when they didn't even have their Electra's and still watching this is nostalgic. I hope whatever happens it comes out positive and that joe could still fly on private time and maybe have a loophole to be hire by the company to fly, maybe that could go under the radar, although I hve no clue about aviation business and legal inquires. Hopefully he can still run the show in the backround to please them inspectors
