No, sorry, I just pulled your quote...not towards you...it's to the industry nation wide. The first time a pilot teaches should not be in a commercial airline jet. Despite this hiring spree, there is still something said about having prior teaching experience...100hrs. of xc is almost comical to not have, and still be employed at such a level...I just laugh when I hear the, "we hire captain's, not fo's."...well I guess not..
