Lots of knocking the pay, but never a good word about our negotiators who are currently working very hard to change that. I'm not sure who you work for, but these things don't happen overnight.

So what is the current status? Last I hear it was going to the NMB?

I was at a recent job fair with some friends. One of them located the Omni table and went to speak with the recruiter. But apparently the recruiter denied his resume because all he had was TurboProp experience and no Jet. He was told by the recruiter that the company said not to hire turboprops any more!!! Now i know that in the past, omni hired piston propeller guys, now all of the sudden 121 experience Turboprop drivers are not good enough. Honestly is it the kind of airplane you fly that defines the kind of pilot you are these days???

10000 hours flying Grand Canyon tours in a twin Otter is not the same as 1000 hours flying cargo in Africa in L-100's

Just a point of order: All of us hired out of piston aircraft were on furlough from other airlines, and had previous jet experience.
Can't speak for their hiring practices these days, but I wanted to address the above.
