Get a clue man. It has nothing to do with "not being worthy." Nobody is saying that any Regional pilot "isn't worthy." I flew junky turbo props at a regional before leaving. It has everything to do with not being entitled, something you are coming off as being.

You said that there are many qualified pilots at the Regionals, tons of experience, who should be given a chance at the Legacy carrier. But then your solution is to make this "combined list" only inclusive to PSA, Envoy, and PDT. What about the thousands of other qualified regional pilots at other regionals? You feel entitled to be given a pass before any other hard working pilot; regional, 135, 91, charter, military, etc simply because there are fewer dots to connect your regional airline to Legacy AA than there are for another pilot's regional. Thats entitlement.

And you could not be any further from the truth to think that the average CA and FO at a Major/LCC/Legacy carrier was on average hired at 2500 TT these days. My airline alone has a hard minimum of 4000TT and short of being very very well connected, or military, Id be willing to bet that the average pilot getting hired at a Legacy these days is well north of 2500TT
