airtwardo 7 #2 November 8, 2008 Dunno about left seat but 'Hoot' Gibson, the retired shuttle pilot quit SW cause of the starvation wages in the right seat! ~ If you choke a Smurf, what color does it turn? ~ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

paulbo 0 #5 November 9, 2008 Lowest pay for a SWA captain will be about $160,000 per year (before taxes). About midrange for a major airline on a 737 size aircraft.

I thought he was still flying for SW as a Captain. I know he was flying RiffRaff out at Reno for Mike Keenum.If you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck!

Rookie120 0 #8 November 9, 2008 Quote No, he quit SW couple years ago... Hmmmm, I did not know that. I met him at Reno in 2001 if I remember correctly. Nice man. Very cool to talk to. Who is he flying for now?If you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
airtwardo 7 #9 November 9, 2008 Riff Raff at races and airshows and a couple of other war-birds as a performer...some other flying projects. I introduced Bill Morrisey to Hoot at Oshkosh this year and they were talking plane names & numbers that I'd never heard of... ~ If you choke a Smurf, what color does it turn? ~ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yea, it's a lot of fun to listen to some of the stories they have. I could sit with Bob Hoover for hours and not say a word. Just listen to the incredible life stories they have to tell.If you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
