Well it’s the Internet so it must be true.
By the way those were market fluctuations determining hiring requirements in the ‘90 and not the FAR’s.
Sounds like you want an FO with your level of experience for more time in the bunk.
Maybe read the FOM once in a while, it’s part of your responsibilities to share your knowledge and experience aka “teach”.
The Pathway is for the 73 anyway, no reason why a 1000hr pilot couldn’t fly a 73 domestic.
I'm not sure where you get any of that from my comments. You seem triggered.
I'm simply responding to your ridiculous implication that this program at Atlas is basically the same thing as a European ab initio program throwing 250 hour pilots into the right seat of an Airbus. It couldn't be farther from that.
And for the record I happen to have a great deal of respect for all the regional guys I've flown with. They literally turned around our union into a fighting force and know exactly what they're worth and never make excuses for corrupt and incompetent management.
