unless you are very confident in your abilities, stay away from PNCL. they WILL do anything to get a flight out on time and/or complete it. The pilots are the ONLY line of defense in protecting your certificate. I find something illegal on AT LEAST 40% of flights i am scheduled for. Everything from no alternate when needed, illegal alternates, MEL's which cancel each other out, discipline for calling in sick, liars and incompetency in crew scheduling....the list goes on and on. I also agree that going to any severely understaffed/underpaid airline going through hostile contract negotiations just to get quick PIC time and get out hurts the entire industry.
