An old pilot might teach you something useful.

At a corporate operation years ago the chairman gave his friend, retired Pan Am 747 Captain a chance to fly as Captain on a bizjet. The other pilots liked him as he would teach them things about jet flying then did not know.

Sending the wrong message that if you want to make a good career here (the ca pictured has been here 35 years btw...) you can?

You're an idiot potato.

Relax, this guy wasn't being malicious.

Advertising a career at a regional will not attract pilots. I truly believe that was not the intention of this ad. Movement and growth attract pilots, as has been proven time and time again, not a 35 year career flying from CLT to FLO.

Piedmont Ad irony
 

He was just stating the irony. Historically and/or the majority you see young in regionals and older in majors. I get it.

Wow... Does anyone have a sense of humor anymore? Why so personal? The "point" of this thread was to lighten things up. Clearly many of you cannot do that.

If you think that's the message they are trying to send than you have a SERIOUS comprehension problem. :rolleyes:

But why 3 stripes in the left seat? Me thinks this pic is phony
:D:D:D

IRONY: a state of affairs or an event that seems deliberately contrary to what one expects and is often wryly amusing as a result.

I.e. An advert for fast movement at a regional to a major. However, they show a picture of a guy who has been there for 40 years.

That's amusing and contradictory to the message they are trying to send.

GET IT? Jeez........

Where is "Gulfstream Girl" when we need her........

No.. I definitely don't. Just part of the package here at PDT. I apologize I misread your initial post as being lighthearted.

Side note: the CA pictured has led a VERY interesting life serving his country. Anyone that comes here and gets to work with him should ask him about it
