REALLY...you have no clue. I typically see military guys; especially F-teeners getting extra instruction and failing check rides. Because dropping bombs and a split-s have nothing to do with 121 flying. But that is another thread...
And what secret does the military have that has not made it to the "civilian" world of flying that makes someone trainable. Because that is what this is really all about...does not matter if you have 10 hours or 10,000 you are either trainable or not trainable and that is what the military weeds out...and that is what we do in 121 training departments.
BWP...OUT
Also...I know a gal that was hired at United with 800 hours TT...are you going to add United to the same catagory as Mesa??? Gee you better not fly on them...what a discrace to the industry!
