There is a difference in the way an American/pilot thinks compared to an East Indian/Accountant.

All is considered fair in the viewpoint of one of the parties. When you go to an airline as a Captain or an FO you have pretty much sealed your fait for a long time. You can't keep hoping from one airline to another and be taken seriously as a pilot.

Once you go to an airline such as Gojet they pretty much consider themselves as owning you and your future, until you make a clean get-a-way if you can. If they can get you to leave your current airline and go there based on a promise of being an instant captain it does not really matter to them if you pass. If you pass and become a captain, great, if you don't you become an FO even better because now you won't be going anywhere with a fail on your record. and they need you more as an FO.

It is a lot of work going to a new airline, learning their procedures and becoming a captain there. I did it but with 20k hours, 6 different planes in my past and 3 other companies, and 10 years teaching skills for training. I still worried even though I had developed a pretty structured system to follow. Don't change airlines for a quick upgrade unless you are prepared to learn on your own and know what you need to learn. Nobody who has done it will tell you it is easy.

 

100% agree.

 

Buddy of mine apply to B6 got a denial letter. When looking over paperwork GoJet stated not re-hireable. This guy is a current Captain at GoJet.
TrueStory. I wish he would let me post the paper on here but it may cost him more problems. Just happened.
Guess what RB said... Don't have to really tell ya but it involved a bucket of sand.
Now we are trying to fix it on our end..

 

Why did you feel the need to post this in 3 different threads?

 

It applied there...figure let street captains know what they may be in for...I forget the other two places.
