Tough talk from someone who "just finished his flight ratings" on 10/2/2008.

I suggest you become a part of this industry before you begin wishing ill on others, as well as talk down to people who have accomplished much more than you have professionally.
He is actually a pilot at mokulele. (well I use the word "pilot" very loosely) He is one of those that wears his uniform everywhere and lets everyone know he is a pilot even if they didn't ask, and about everything out of his month is a lie.

So he's a 400 hour F/O on a Caravan? And a "uniform" guy?

Now I understand where his ego comes from.

No offense but it depends on what you mean by "professionally". I made more as a CFI than you probably do as a captain there. I definitely made more than I do as an FO. I don't know where working at the worst regional for the worst pay and work rules measures on the professional scale. Give the guy a break. I haven't seen him talk down to anyone. I have seen you talk down to him though as your last few posts point out.

"So he's a 400 hour F/O on a Caravan?" So which one here has the ego?

Nothing yet. However you might as well consider these 11 crews gone. Not like they'll be able to call you for a RSV assignment in ATL. Something tells me they'll try though :)

To be perfectly honest, I'm not ready to go back. Spending the holidays at home sounds much better than preflighting ankle-deep in type 2 at YEG in stupid cold weather. I'll come back in March thankyou :)

Too bad people actually bid to go to HNL. Now the company has no reason to offer more.

Our friend has gone back through and edited his post that set me off. He did talk down to us at Mesa, while sitting at his PC with 400 hours and a wet commercial.

Sure, we've all been there, but I didn't run my mouth on these boards.

All along, he's making 19K flying a Caravan, and taking cheap shots at Mesa pilots.

Did you push 65K flight instructing?

I didn't have a choice. My contract was ending. The Air Force wanted someone to flight instruct in the desert. It was hot as hell in the summer but I was my own boss and the AF had all the students any three people could want. I did five flights a day in two hour blocks. Sometimes six. 1300hrs in a year of flight instruction was enough. No advancement if I renewed. Just same old racetrack day in and day out.

So are you're measuring professionalism based on income.....thank goodness the industry is not ran by 1st year f/o's!
