Nah. They are coming over...some from places you wouldn't expect. If they have the 1000 121 it is going to be a great opportunity for them in the coming year. I look forward to working with them.

And then there's the pay. Jet F/O first year is less than the Dash which is not only odd, it's ****!

All the regionals now have trouble getting people and yet they keep up with these silly ads. I remember back in the early 90's when the ads said pay 10,000$ and come work for us!

The regionals now are getting what they deserve, lots less interested in flying for false promises. Wasn't PSA promised AA slots? And have you heard what it's like flying for Parker, no thanks.

These ads are so misleading/speculatative. If Pdt was so confident about their ads I wish some FFD carriers like them would give a guarantee on signing. Like you will flow to American in 5 years or we owe you $100,000. If they claim it in their ads why not put their money where their mouth is?

You want pathetic? There's a person I know of who received one. He's a current employee, but a retired pilot. Reason for no longer flying? He's 66 years old.

Haha.
