Lostplane, please do correct us when we don’t get the facts right. I have made reference to spirits process. I try to be accurate and respectful. G4 management is following beautifully in the time honored; Lorenzo school of labor relations. Its worked great for them the last decade. Cheap pilots and cheap airplanes. And millions in their pockets. What car was that, KB rolled up in?

Add to that more Airbus planes are arriving as we speak and you have the making of a perfect storm.

Thanks for the info.
So would it be a waste of time to apply now having no TPIC and no jet time? I fly a turboprop for a 121 cargo company.
Would I be wasting my time applying with Allegiant?

Probably. It couldn't hurt to give it a shot anyway.

Yes, but not for the reasons you think.

I know they have hired people with straight T-prop time before. I think they get a lot of folks from Ameriflight.

So no, it's not a waste of time.

I guess it really depends on what time it snows. If it doesn't in the morning, then I would say a lot of them. If it does it overnight, it's hard to say. Depends on how much and how long.
