Just a side note about the 1k 121 time. Captain part 135 and 91K time count as well.

Military PIC also counts for up to 500 hours if it was multi-engine turbine.

If the company is growing, why are we getting fewer lines ?

We all get it. Life’s great for you and XJT is the bestest little airline in the Western Hemisphere. Your pom poms are getting dirty with all the cheering though.

For the record, I have not met a single happy pilot that works for XJT. A few fresh newhires that are all jacked up on koolaid here and there. Not even chief pilots have been expressing a positive outlook on what’s happening.
I know you just like to stir the pot but the ole CRJ vs ERJ is a lame excuse for your insecurities. That card has been overused. Your arguments (in which I’m not even sure what you are arguing) could be a little more effective if you knew who you were talking to. You often sound like the usually disconnected management type.

I knew my contract, how they could abuse and how i could use it to my advantage. I also understood that regionals are just a stepping stone, granted I was here longer then expected but I did everything I could do (Union work, training dept, etc) to get out which I did.
