I just don’t understand why anyone would willingly go to a regional when majors and LCC’s are in DESPERATE need of pilots.

Agreed ^^^

However, probably boils down to people being unable or unwilling to take a pay cut unless they’re going to their “dream” destination. Or unwilling to give up QOL and move. Different strokes for different folks I suppose.

Whoever says you should not go below green dot is full of it.

Flaps full, 74000lbs, stall prot ice speeds. Boom, you are below green dot.

Yeah, add it to the list of things this place does stupidly. CP never understood the 175 and now, in its twilight years...looks like they never will. Many brave souls, tried to make changes but... we all know how well that went.

I think he was being facetious. :p We have all had that one mainline JS'er that just doesn't get it.

Some mainline pilots just don't get it. Couple guys at my CP never stop *****ing about Alaska. "Worst airline in the world... The trips suck... I have to go to Fort Lauderdale, hate going there." Cool story bro. Meanwhile I'm sitting there with my 3 week old beard that I refuse to shave until I fly again.

Yup. We couldn’t tell if the jumpseater was being serious or making a joke but after a few minutes of rambling it was apparent they were entirely serious.

Want to know the secret? Turn in your two-week notice. I flew more my last two days than I did the previous two months combined. ;)

I can vouch for this. Lol :D

This. I turned in my 2 weeks. Had 4 day of RSV, 2 days off, 4 days of RSV. Got a 4 day both times. My last 4 days of RSV in SEA, day one get called for a 4 day. Couldn’t believe it. YVR-SEA was my last flight...after a reroute of course. And I really enjoyed flying with that FO too. We were both sad I didn’t get to finish together. Some good times.
