Silver has a lot of really good pilots with experience hand flying 1900s and Saabs down to minimums. I'm proud to write that I'm one of them. Several have recently moved on to JetBlue and United, both of which are very selective in who they hire. But, I believe Allegiant will be a better fit for me for my other business interests and I hope to get the opportunity to work there. With the industry hiring that's going on now, pilots too can be selective where they wish to work. For all those with informative and positive responses - Thanx. For all those with negative responses - why do you even bother?
