What is the typical schedule for the Gulfstream?
Is pay different as well?
If any Gulfstream drivers are on here, please feel free to PM me. I am just looking for facts here people. I am really not looking for union this, union that, scab here, scab there, a$$ kisser him, brown noser her, etc. I am sure you get the point.
Thanks and good luck to all.

Candidates walking out of class following “bait and switch” tactics is quite amusing though.

Mr. Pollard, you really like to paint with a broad, yet DB brush. I know a ton of former 135 pilots at every major and cargo operator. You seem to think everyone other than you or those like you are lesser pilots for choosing whatever path they chose. I could say something like "Mark, since you could not get in the military as a pilot, you are probably a marginal pilot and therefore not hire-able". (old delta days) However, that would not be true from first appearance.
Right now, I have no desire to fly for a part-121 carrier. Already did and did not like the lifestyle...it was boring FOR ME. And no, I have not applied. I don't know why you concern yourself with the path others have taken. You really need a hobby.
Its good to see your ways have not changed since leaving NJA.

135 guys think that the only requirement to get hired, are the hourly requirements listed in the job posting. They apply once, wait to get hired, only the call never comes. Or they get an interview with one or multiple airlines, and they can never get hired. They continue though still questioning why they didn't get hired. They met the requirements right?! Most of those guys have personality issues or some other underlying issue that the airlines don't want.
I flew with a bunch of guys in the 135 world like that, as we probably all have.

Typical Millennial who needs his safe place, thinks that everything should happen for him exactly how he sees it. Cause that’s how aviation works.
I wonder how long he’ll stay at Alaska before starting over at another Major just in time for a downturn and furlough? Lol.

I thought this would be a good place to get some answers. But it seems more of a place where people just troll, name call and b-itch.
If you aren't happy, find another company or new profession all together. Some of you must be a real joy in the cockpit.
I shouldn't be surprised of the reaction when yet another millennial realizes they don't always get their way nor get a choice.
Welcome to reality.
