I haven't had any friends called yet. Got a lot of good mil guys I know that went. They've got thousands of hours and deserve a chance. Especially when we've hired 1500TT female Air Force copilots for the last year. Give some of these guys a chance!!! And before anyone says anything...I'm a female and I think it's bs these guys aren't getting called!

Timbo, you think that looks good?!?!

Edited to say that I know that you know that I know that you are kidding.
