Riddle me this batdude.....why did the Chief of Pilot hiring for one of the top 4 recently visit Travis AFB in CA on a recruiting drive?

Have you seen this at PSA?, AWAC? SKYW, Envoy, Endeavor etc. Like many have said here and other boards; mil guys/gals are KNOWN commodity. I still maintain that major airline new hires are dis-proportionally more civ, so I don't get what you are barking at.

So what if the ex mil get out and get hired right away by a major? Nothing written that says they have to do a touch-and-go with the regionals to get 121 stink on them prior to fleeting up to the majors. If you think that is wrong, your fight is with the hiring departments at the majors, not with the ex mil folks.

Yeah, we get it, you don't think it's fair. But life isn't fair, so get over it already.
