Hehe sorry actually I didnt mean to say upgrade, what I meant was getting off of reserve...I have no intention of going to the majors here at the moment I just want some jet time multi time efis etc etc.

So with that being said upgrade off of reserve time. Cr2 or Cr7's and how is life out there at PSA..
Cheers again

That you might.... But doesn't mean you know anything about Piedmont Airlines and the road we've traveled for the last 12 years.

LMAO!!!!

Please, please play poker with me sometime.

I shouldn't even bother trying to "educate" you...but here goes nothing:

I am DFW based. I live in DFW. I am in contact with AA pilots on a daily basis. I eat lunch with them. They ride in my jumpseat.

The topic of PSA always comes up..and guess what?? They know what is going on and they ARE NOT happy. PSA is scum as far as they are concerned. Oh, PSA management has you fooled in believing otherwise? Of course they are going to give the hard sell to CFIs and make them believe in rainbows. They need warm bodies.

Good luck with your career. You will need it.

I think a way more likely scenario than everyone's fictional "SJS" is that he's trying to get on with a foreign carrier that has a minimum weight requirement.

Keep telling yourself whatever makes you comfortable though.

True, I do want the heavy weight requirement for foreign airlines and not SJS which is what I said in my original post.. When did I say anything about SJS? jeez is a 200 shinier than a 700 anyways?? F@in hate it when I try to get real information out of this forum and get SJS blah blah blah..

And now that the topic is brought up but, Im not a fan from what I have read about what happened with PSA and the voting etc but I think this is more of a industry/sector problem than an individual companies problems. Yetif I were to join PSA now just tell me what I had to do with that vote at all? The answer is nothing so leave me alone and others like it.
I was just happy that I may be able to sit in a jet and fly it like I have wanted too for a long time hence educating myself about the best company to work for hence I ask specific questions in a forum and cant get anything good back ( sometimes )... I guess thats wrong according to some.

I reckon I should just stop reading anything on these forums period.. At least my frustration will probably notch down a point or two.

Keep trying to tell yourself that. Just like the A330 CA that's rides in a 190 and ask, "who do you work for?" Not knowing the 190s a Mainline AC.... Keep inflating the stories as they're fairly entertaining to listen to. Makes commuting fun to read you all come up with lies and story time items you claim as factual.
