Hahahahaha. PDT isn't 10 years. Not anywhere close as we grow for someone that gets hired in the next few months. Our upgrade is slightly over 2 years. Considering also the fact AA has said they are bringing as much feed in house as they can and want to hire only from the wholly owneds you are limiting yourself to 2 legacy airlines if you don't come to one of the 3.
Dream a little dream buddy. If you honestly think rolling the dice on Mesa and getting hired at DAL v 5 years at PDT and a Guaranteed job at AA. Go for it man. |

Bro, did I advocate going to Mesa?? Although, he would probably make Captain in a few years and make a decent living. 2 year upgrade and 5 year Flow at Piedmont??? Did I justify read that right? If that were even remotely true, we'd all be knocking down the damn door to get get into Piedmont. You need to stop dreaming and join reality.

Bro, we grow as planned a newhire will be at AA in 5 years. You read that right. And yeah 2 year upgrade...that's gonna drop as we keep adding planes. People are starting to beat down the door to come here actually. Our base structure currently sucks and when the hub for the jets is fiiiiinally announced even more will be trying to get in. Finally a good problem here after the many bad ones. Lotta people assume they know what's going on here BC we fly a lotta props. Kinda funny. Like your post

You guys are acting like everyone wants to get to a major. Not everyone has that goal.
Additionally, you guys are acting like your flow will be around for years. IMHO chasing flow is just as much a gamble in this industry as chasing upgrades, unless the flow is legally protected for future new-hire pilots as well as current pilots. That being said, I would love to be proved wrong by someone who understands regional airline contract language better than myself. Facts only please. Trolls need not respond. |

I interviewed at PSA this week
So is this what we have come to? There are around 8 regional applicants in the pipeline these days so pilots have stooped to fighting one another for new-hire scraps? "My regional is better", "no my regional is better", who cares?! They are all Major B-scales with slight variations. Shouldn't recruiting be management's responsibility? They should be improving market conditions as opposed to getting free recruitment services by APC warriors. This is getting pathetic.

Might be fun to request a class date via text, just to see if they respond.
More truth, fake people have "interviewed" and were subsequently hired at Mesa. Running into 757's and going offroading when it gets a little windy.. yeah, nothing wrong with this hiring practice. When you combine a quick upgrade and a "very very forgiving training department" the traveling public is so much worse off than before Colgan it's not even funny. |

I would say anywhere but mesa, psa and gojet. With the only exception being if you live in one of their bases that no other regional has a base at. Commuting sucks, and living in base at a crap regional might be better than commuting to a
more reputable one. |
