Well, you can only fly 30 hours a month on RSV at Envoy, but it doesn't mean it's a good thing. There's a reason that the ACMIs are a last choice decision behind the legacies, LCCs, and ULCCs. You can scream "positive space tickets" and "vacation in Vegas" as much as you want. Anyone with any sense sees right through that nonsense. Just to put it into perspective, Omni needs Street Captains. That's how successful they've been in their recruiting endeavors.
They need street captains because they’ve been hiring mostly military and none have the 1000 121 time; and unlike Envoy we don’t do forced upgrades. With our new rates there are plenty of senior FO’s happy with $200k a year.
