I hate it when that happens. These Gstreamers paid 20K to fly a 1900, you think they even care if they get paid here? They just like to look in the mirror at the super 8 motel and see those shinny wings. Pinnacle is filled with idiots that think 1000hrs of PIC and then they are gonna get this magic job at the best airline in the world... I give ASA guys ALOT of credit because they have ba%%s and we dont. |

Ok this is off topic, but actually the Streamers, at least when they were my FO's when they were new hires 3-4 years ago, were better overall than any other of the "program" guys I've had. But I am sick of hearing "I'm only here for 1000 tpic then I'm outta here"

-Picking a fight Plus by the time your seniority holds MEM CA, then you wait your required year to attempt upgrade again, :p there will be a mass exodus from the majors due to age 65 and you just might get on there with the bare PIC mins ;) -Picking my nose |

-Picking a fight I hope your kidding man... which I think you are. but the next class or classes that purple has is gonna be filled with backed up military apps and mostly all the furloughed people out there from the various cargo and ATA/Champion etc.. guys. 1,000 hours of PIC myth is gone and I'm tired of hearing it. |

"Have you heard of the 1000 tpic regional pilot who gets on at a major? Some feel that you are about as likely to see a bigfoot or a mermaid than get on at a major with 1000 tpic. Many feel betrayed because their flight school told them they would be at Major of their choice with 1000 hours. $50,000 debt and 1000 hours later, they are still at a regional. Maybe you have seen him, if so you are one of the lucky ones. Stay tuned for tonights special edition episode of "unsolved airline mysteries." " |

1,000 hours of PIC myth is gone and I'm tired of hearing it. And yes I was being sarcastic in the earlier post. Those who are still sitting here expecting a FDX call just because they have 1000TJPIC and have a resume on file are kidding themselves. |
