Real FOs are on the street because people choose to pay gulfstream $29k to sit in their seats. Let's not forget that.
Listen this is what I mean by not having all your facts. The CBA with GIA allows 30% only of line hours to be flown by Probationary Pilots. If they were not there you would see mabye 15 jobs open up. Ok great but those go to former students or in the current climate, the furloughs get recalled. Never give me the holier than thow Im a CFI your stealing my job pitch, it doesnt work with me, I am one of the 3M furloughs. Youll learn a lot when youve sat on a 121 flight deck...
