+1, that fairy tale of getting 1000 TPIC will get you automatically to the major is non-sense only new hires believe. Anyone with a couple of years at the regionals will tell you the real story: military, minorities, friends and family, not just recommendations BUT recommendations from people that matter, these are the people getting their foot at the majors, with exceptions here and there.

I know since you are flying the G1 this probably all seems a little foreign to you. On the surface, flow through seems like a great thing but in reality its just a tool that management uses to obtain your obedience for 10 years, kind of like a carrot. The truth is you are better off going to a regional that is growing. Upgrade time should be the only thing on your mind, not 10 year flow throughs. You upgrade, then you are out of there in a year or two.
Maybe one day you will want to work for the airlines, this is a good place to learn some of the ropes. Good luck!

His statement of "silliness" is correct in one way and that's your assumption of his false front being real. He's a DFW based EMB captain for Envoy. He's got a lot at stake and with this deal he may decide not to flow to AA. He doesn't know anything about G1's or GV's and spends a lot of time on Envoy issues because he has skin in the game.
Good Luck.

And I'm not in the flow? There won't be anywhere near 2,000 pilots at Envoy in the near future. Guess i'll save my staples for the mainline "no fly" list. Looks like i'll need to have a binder if some of you kids are there...then again, the extra $$ would never be worth it in such a "fantastic" work environment. Good luck on your voting thingy...hehe.
