CptMrgn,
How would they "fit in at F9", you say? I'm guessing they'd be slightly more experienced than a regional guy, but not quite enough on their resume to get hired by a real airline, right?
That's why they're applying to F9 in the first place?
Get over yourself with the "greater than thou" attitude, especially coming from F9, which is nothing more than a "stepping stone, regional-esque" airline in the first place. Much like Midwest "was", and no longer "is".
