Since he won't shoot straight, I will do it for him.

No, he has never flown the line here at Piedmont. In fact, he hasn't worked for an airline in years.

In other words, he doesn't know the state of the industry first hand, and he certainly doesn't know the state of Piedmont. Take what you read on these forums with a grain of salt, especially when it comes from someone who has never experienced it for themselves.

Sooner is trying to convince himself he made the right decision by spreading falsehoods about this place. Can't believe we need to review this on a weekly basis.

You guys are going to be so bored when you can’t use that argument anymore.

Well you'll actually have worked a day as a Piedmont pilot, and will actually know how things work around here. So your opinion will change and it won't be necessary.

I give it three months of flying the line before you start singing a different tune my friend

Exactly what tune am I singing? I told the OP to choose between Skywest and piedmont cause he needs the rotor program and an easy commute.

Are you telling him he should force himself into a 2 leg commute?

Pretty sure they are speaking in general with your extremely knowledgeable opinions of what it’s like working here, without actually working here.

Do you sleep in your cheerleader outfit or just wear it during the day?

I'm not sure the rtp program will return to pdt... it was extremely costly and there were several training failures. I think they have enough committed cadets now to keep the fo pipeline moving... recruiting really did a nice job with that.. but the need will be captains.. captain's... captain's...

We got some great people through the rtp though... I'm interested to see what happens..
