You are the one making a big deal out of it. I was responding to the comments about our pilot group being scabs (since you've worked here "a year") you missed that era. Who made you the JB forum police? If it bothered you so much replying to my post makes you just as guilty. Log off and continue living with your head in the sand.

In all honesty, I'm not sure they care about the lack of 121 time. I have flown with guys and gals from all different backgrounds. They look for a specific type of person at JB, so you could make up for a lack in technical experience with other stuff. With long upgrade times and a young pilot group, I believe we may see some pilots hired without any PIC time. There does not seem to be much of a formula, so give it a shot, you never know what will happen.

I would hope we would be putting our best foot foward, doing our best to get good people to come to JB. I dont believe you are doing that. If you need to tell everyone about the protection we need and the rest of the stuff you putting out there please just start another thread and leave this one alone.

As hard as it is for CRFguy to believe, there are a number of us who actually like it here at JB and the fact we are a bit different than the other guys. I agree that the thread has been hijacked by an overly emotional guy who cannot seem to respect the different opinions of his peers - I certainly hope he does not use the cockpit as his soapbox. I'm not anti-union, but don't know if I want angry people representing me at the bargaining table.

CRFguy, isn't Delta hiring?

Invitation arrived...

Got an e-mail from JetBlue Pilot Recruitment last night at 5:30 PM. They stated that due to the overwhelming responses they are still processing the registration forms. They said to expect an e-mail invite Friday night or Saturday. I got the official invite to the Career Fair in Orlando at 10:30 PM last night.

Telling people to leave for another company is a weak-minded cop out.
