This is perhaps the worst poll in the history of polls. Stimpy, are you going to instigate any sort of discussion at all?

Is it the worst because it's too simple?

I know, as pilots, we like to think on many levels at once and that this is a very simple poll and seems undiscernable as to WHY to many of us.

But, if I were to discuss the reason(s) for the poll or the questions asked it would then contaminate responses due to overthinking of things.

When the poll is finished I will discuss anything any one would like as it concerns the why's-and-wherefore's.

Thanks!

The poll is finished.

Okay, maybe this is a better forum for it so I understand the move.

However is the poll still open until Jan 20th?

If not may I ask why?

Thanks.

There is no simple answer to your question as it depends on a person and what his current job preference is as well as long term goals. These companies are part of three similar segments of an airline industry yet all very different; therefore, depending on the pilot and what his situation is presently and what he wants in the future.
If it was one choosing while starting anew in this industry, either regional with a flow through would be the best fit so as to end up at a legacy carrier. That would be considered the best place to be and the fastest path to getting there. On the other hand, an experienced and/or older pilot might choose LCC or ACMI route and make that a permanent choice.
As a rule of thumb, younger person should choose either regional and flow through to a legacy, otherwise pick a carrier where one would not mind retiring if need be and go from there.

Stimpy the Kat

Correct.

This is pointless. No majors are hiring CFI's, and although that might change in five years, they're nowhere near that point now.
