I love it when women try and tell us what it is like to have a ****. You have no idea. No seriously, you have no idea what goes through the average man's head in a day. You have no idea...

Without respect to how she may or may not have gotten her current position, the thing that sort of irks me is she subtly but consistently presents herself as a Gulfstream captain. Perhaps I'm just getting more curmudgeon-y as I get older, but Nadia: You aren't a Gulfstream captain, please quit promoting yourself as if you are - you'd find you would gain a lot more respect if you'd just come across honestly as someone who is very fortunate to have ended up in the right seat of a large cabin jet with a wet commercial certificate.

Amen a paid for type with 250 tt does not equal a PIC Captain. As a side question Anyone ever heard of someone failing a type ride at simuflite etc.

In this case I'm afraid age might have played a large factor in the less than satisfactory performance. I have heard that they will bend over backwards during training to ensure success.

With the US military opening combat positions to women, it seems we will have men and women performing in the same physical environment. I will be interesred to see how the change fares.

Damn do you people hear yourselves? So she's European and a model, obviously that means she is a slut and sleeps her way through to a flying job. GMAB. It may or may not have happened, but you have no right to smear her like that without facts.
She got hired into a Gulfstream II with 250 hrs. Big deal. I got hired in a CRJ-200 with less than 250 hrs, and I didn't sleep with anyone. It cost me though, 27k for the RJ program and I got an interview out of it. I lucked out, got hired, and the rest is history. In her case, she didn't do a RJ program. She knew a friend who was a chief pilot that runs his own business jets, and is probably the BEST network/contact you could ever have! This is because in many of those cases, all the right seat requires is a Comm/Multi/Instrument, and a type rating for that aircraft. He gave her a shot with her qualifications, and she passed the type rating. Good for her. Stop being so judgemental and concluding she's a slut who sleeps around.
