I could help it, I had to click on the Fltops.com article on the home page and see who this list of participating companies is that I need to drop $109, and travel expenses for...


All Nippon Airways - Crew Resources Worldwide
- 3,000 TT with 1,000 commercial jet time

I know 10K+ TT, MD11 and A320 captains who put in for this and heard nothing, not even a thank you for your application... also, unless you're in perfect health/cholesterol/height to weight/vision etc.. forget it.

American Eagle
- Information only - not recruiting

Compass Airlines
- 1500 TT (FW or rotor) 500 ME FW

We know what those pay... sub $20K/yr... you're better off staying on unemployment and seeing your family, instead of living in a crashpad with 6 other guys with your 11 days of a month schedule... 2-3 days off, and commuting..

World Airline Services
- 7,000TT Captains with 1,000 on type, 3,000TT and 500 on type for F/O's

I never even heard of these guys... there are sooooo many more reputable crew leasing companies like IASCO, PARC and others that will find you work if you're qualified without you having to travel to Dallas for $109+expenses.



So, I have to ask...... Seriously?

Is this about helping pilots? Or are we trying to cover some overhead costs in a down turn?
