Why wouldn't you be golden to get on with a major is you had 777 type with PIC time in a 737? You would have demonstrated the two skills the majors want to see in a pilot, international transoceanic experience in a heavy and command time in a type common to most majors in a busy domestic hub and spoke network.
Are you implying that by merely working for SAI that you are "tainted"? or that SAI only recruits "tainted" pilots so they can't get on with a major?
