Hmm low time idiots, huh?

Those supposed idiots went straight from a 172 to a multi turbine aircraft and finished training in less than a month. Sounds like someone who might be a half decent pilot and know what they’re doing if you ask me. And those beloved high time pilots you keep talking about, guess what? Those are the same guys that get in the plane and have to ask “the lowtime idiots” how to start the engines. Also, the high time guys, including the one that went on to fly “heavy equipment”, were actually restricted to flying only certain assignments (whether they know that or not) because they couldn’t handle the demands of some of the military groups. No aircraft accidents at SDAZ either, but they’re low time idiots, correct?

As far as the contract goes, yes, pay was known before signing the contract. However, pilots are required to train new hires, and if they don’t will lose work. Nowhere in the contract does it mention having to train new pilots coming in the door. A lot of SDAZ pilots have kids and families to provide for, and cannot afford to lose work. And in return 75% of their flying will be training people, which they never agreed to. So you can’t necessarily blame them for not honoring a dishonorable contract.
