that much is obvious, which is why I didn't even mention it.. I think most of us know that having connections trumps everything.. I was addressing the other aspects of prop. v. fan that I personally have thought about.

another duplicate wth is wrong with me

oops duplicate

Amen...(sniffles)

Clear Prop!!!

Well, if it was all that obvious to you, you wouldn't have needed to ask any of your questions in the first place.

what are you talking about, dojet? since I knew that connections are the most important thing.. that means I should have no more questions to ask/think about regarding prop v. jet?
and going back to that q I wondered about "who would a major prefer all else being equal".. one who has a connection would obviously have an advantage over another whether they are prop or jet driver... yes, even a newbie like me would know that.. if one had connections and the other didn't, they wouldn't fit under "all else being equal." because when people say "all else being equal," they mean "ALL else being equal." my intention of putting "all else being equal" in there was to cover ALL aspects of the candidates, except whether he was a prop or jet driver.. like being equal as in both have same hours, same degree, no connections or similiar connections, same color hair, etc. etc. I just didn't mention what all those equals were word for word and simply said "all else being equal."
so YES I definitely agree with you that prop v. jet hardly matters if you have a connection.. but the q was ALL ELSE being equal.
nitpicky arent we???

Um....whatever.

In case you missed it, for the most part, there is no "all else being equal" in this business. Well, maybe SW/UPS might be a SLIGHT exception. But if you were to ask recent UPS/SW new hires of class breakdowns, one that didn't have the heavy/trans oceanic requirement in place (UPS), there was probably turbo prop only representation.

If I was "nitpicky", I would be busting your balls over poor grammar/sentence structure.

P.I.C = Prop Is Command
P.I.C.= Prop Is Charge
P.I.C.= Prop Is Captain Soon ..!!!!:D

SexyJeny;)

yes thank you grammar po po for not pulling me over.. but I think it's obvious that I'm not trying to enter an English essay contest in this forum.. and in any case, how would you be busting my balls over poor grammar if your own sentence is grammatically incorrect? (not that I care if you know when to use subjunctives in an if clause, but since you brought up that grammar bit.)

and sorry dudeguy, i'll stop hijacking ur thread!
