As for having 500 hours and getting hired, you are incorrect again. I had over 800 and bypassed lower paid regionals that would've taken me at 500 hours. Eagle and ExpressJet were the only ones I applied to and offered a position. Who's the one trying to hold the bar up here?
Get off your high horse and stop distracting from the truth. Go ahead and hide behind your new username.
Wow...800 Hours ...amazing...you high timer!!! I went from Colgan to CAL mainline in under 2 years..hired with CJC at 2300TT. I didn't have an in at CAL and they liked that I had flown a turboprop (SAAB).
I would never argue that ExpressJet is a bad operation because they are not. They offer a quality product to CAL. However, your argument doesn't hold water. I have listened to you bash Colgan for so long and it's really really getting old. Just pick yourself up tpersuit....do your job like a professional, forget about Colgan who obviously has not stolen your job.
If anything, you flying from EWR-OMA, you have stolen my job. How do you feel?
