I don’t know why this forum is so toxic. I can see what you’re saying. Obviously it’s not the same today as it was yesteryear, but I have talked to many people who recall the days where people would scramble over each other to just get an interview with SkyWest.
I feel very fortunate I can come in with 1500 hours and be practically hired and taken care of with respect to training. I just don’t get why this XJT forum is so hostile. I have heard it doesn’t represent the pilot group from former XJT guys who’ve moved mainline however (for the better!)
