Really? I assumed that they would do things pretty much the same. They don't tell us much about Farmington. . Have you gotten to go in the CRJ sim yet? Sometimes they let our instrucors ride along and apparently you can hardly tell it's not real. I'm pretty jacked to get to do that even though its a couple years off. There doesn't seem to be too much respect for MPD guys around here. But after hearing about those two dip ****s at Pinacle who thought their CRJ 200 was an F-16 and augered it into the ground, I cant blame them. But on the other hand, they make it sound as if you make it through and can manage to button your shirt up and tie your shoes you get the job. Only a few guys make it each year. And of the people who do interview each year, a lot are the instructors who have come from other schools like UND and taught for a year. But about the whole pay thing were new pilots are driving down pay. I thought that unions were suposed to make sure that kind of thing didn't happen? I am young and niave though I long to be as cynical as the older pilots.
