That's funny you should say 17 years because I have a friend that has been here just over 16 years and is back on reserve as a 70 captain next month. How sick is this really!!! As far as regional's go these dates are unprecedented. And even in the majors these dates are higher than most!! And yay, It's my 100th post!

Av8rKing, that wasn't about you. Some dooshh posted a large amount of links to "other sites". It was his/her first posting and they were very suspicious in nature. I made that comment, then one of the mods deleted that posting. Not about you at all.

That's what they all say. I was on a date once, she turned out to be shrek himself. I excused myself to make a phone call. Told my room mate to call me in 5 to get me away from the ogar. She heard my call somehow. I tried to make something clever up but I just left after three failed excuses.

That's the way they should've always been. Too bad the damage is done.

The best part is there are a whole bunch of pilots out there willing to fly it for half what similar sized corporate aircraft command.

Oh man, this is the last thing I need, an antagonist!. Believe me I can find trouble without any help.

Btw, looking at your avatar and reading your story, what else is there to say?.
Somebody's gotta "love the big chicks".

That is true. It is supply and demand. There are more pilots than there are jobs. This is due to the pilot factories and the airlines' willingness to lower minimums instead of raising compensation. Supply and demand of pilots has been manipulated to the fullest extent to insure there is never a pilot shortage. Our compensation will never go up again. I have a feeling in twenty years, we will be talking about how good it is right now. The sad thing is it probably is better now than it will be in twenty years.
