I have heard maybe BNA or CVG for PSA. Satellite bases are under negotiations for many cities. Miami might be the first.

Delta hasn't had a SIM eval since prior to 1991. Many airlines don't have sim evals.

Those were supposed to be the new bases, but daddy Doug said no more out stations apparently... I guess it actually costs mainline more for its regional's to operate in outstations instead of a hub. I'm guessing DCA will be our new base. Mainly because of the massive amount of increased flying we are doing in and out of there.

Really??

It's one thing when you are interviewing at mainline who has much higher standards and experience requirements. It's another thing when you are interviewing a current CFI with ATP minimums or, up until recently, as low as 250-500 hours total time.

There is no excuse for PSA "not caring" if their pilots can do basic pilot things.

The flow chart is sarcasm but the info on it is very much truth.

While I know last year was rough, and I am not sure that I can blame high time FOs for making lateral moves, I am glad to see it isn't paying off. Not so much to punish them, but to show pilots thinking about future "too good to be true" deals that they are just that. Speaking of too good to be true deals, how is TSA doing with their CQFOs?

I've seen quite a few of my ex FOs posting on FB that they are bailing already. Another scam.
