I agree it does look bad all day long. But the fact still remains someone comes and does a few hundred hours of flying at Gulfstream moves on to another 121 airline. Is there for a few years and actually upgrades to captain now has somewhere around 3500 hours TT in a totally different type of machine, operations etc. What does his 250 hours at Gulfstream have anything to do with what he decided to do 3 years later in a CRJ 200 at FL 410 ??? Swapping seats and doing all the things all these people did with these accidents. All of the above pilots went through trainging again at thier new airline had to get a type rating etc. He acumulated bad habbits over the years not just at Gulfstream flying the little 1900.

Kinda get tired of people bashing Gulfstream blamming the company for what actually is the responsibilty of the pilots , regardless of where they got thier original 250 hours.

Sure all these guys did wrong ,yes. But doesnt change the fact that they must have picked up crappy habbits at their current company. Not what they did when they flew in florida 3 years ago.
