I can’t say that the flying is easier/harder. I expect it to be harder.... but this is physically easier than what I did in 135 Cargo where I would unload freight out of the back of a 1900, unpaid, and often with showtimes at 0100. We also had shifting duty times, no duty rigs, and were covered in fuel/mosquitoes/and fish jizz most of the time. Am I one of the problem guys who took it so I could build time? Heck yeah! Although it was hard on me, it was great and I learned a lot. Now I’m here and I see a ****ing contest of how hard it is. That’s just wasted time reading that stuff. I look at XJT as a great place to learn from experienced captains while getting to become a better pilot. I cannot understand why there is so much negativity on here, and a push that we need to be negative to know what this company is and what working for it means. I think XJT is gonna push me and expand my personal limitations, and I’m looking forward to that.

Is it gonna be easy? Probably not... but that’s my problem.
