I don't know which one is worse:
1) Their hiring update is that outdated. 2) You actually took the time to post it on this forum. Stay professional! |

Yes, it's "Delta Connection Academy". Don't tell me you went to "The Academy" when I ask you where you did your flight training. "The Academy" to me means Air Force Academy.
Just curious...... |

If it isn't OK to say "The Academy" when speaking of DCA, then why is it OK to say "The Academy" when talking about the Air Force Academy. Is West Point, VMI and others not an Academy? What makes the Air Force so Special to have reserved the right to be called The ONE AND ONLY "Academy?"

Just curious...... You wanna talk about safety, lets talk about a pilot getting a job at a regional after getting all their certificates in 90 days. Great concept! Flying is kewl! |

The Air Force Academy does not do flight training... they do screening for potential Undergraduate Pilot Trainees that learn to fly after their time at the Air Force Academy.
I've NEVER heard of anyone getting all of their certificates and flight time to meet most regional requirements in just 90 days, that's the exception... not the norm. |

Wouldn't it be more accurate to say that the USAF Academy does screening for potential USAF OFFICERS - some of those just happen to go on to UPT?
USMCFLYR Sure YOU could, but I didn' say that - I was implying that the "flight training" that is being done there is screening for UPT (for those that want to be pilots). I wasn't including ALL USAFA Cadets, just the one's that want to attend UPT. Does that make sense? |
