Omg!!
 
Anybody else notice that this canned BS spews rhetoric about EVERY SINGLE bullet point that the critics have against regionals and their pay, performance and training?

"Better myself financially..."

"Our training is better than mainlines....."

etc, etc.

All we need is for "Charlie" to issue sentiment about how proud he is that he gets to work 16hrs. a day and that his "hometown" airline hires to the bare minimums.

Yes, RAA, we noticed and are not impressed. What a load of #$%#!!!

I'm surprised he's able to talk by how tight that shirt is choking him. Must not wear it too much....

Does anyone know how much money the RAA receives? I just want to know how much money is wasted on a propaganda outlet instead of being used to actually increase safety.

His motivations for becoming an airline pilot are also very unique. Did he wake up one day, see an airplane and think, “Why not? I got these ratings a while ago so I might as well use them now.” Usually everyone else wants to be an airline pilot first and then gets the ratings.


Also, I am trying to think how going to a regional could improve his finical situation. I am trying to think of any full time job that pays less than first year pay at regionals, and I am stumped.

Being from KY, he probably lived at home with ma & pa, and worked at one of those drive-up cigarette shops and....oh wait...those people probably still make more money....never mind:D

I don't know why you say this. It's simply not true. 250 hrs is bare minimums. 1000 hrs is not.

Do you think a PROFESSIONAL airline pilot would go to work with the company pin missing from his hat? If he is so proud of where he works and what he has become then why isn't he in full uniform?

I can't believe this crap. It's just unbelievable. This Cohen guy is a bald face LIAR. How can we expose him for what he really is. People need to know that he's full of it, and is LYING to their faces.

Hopefully this DB's "home town" airline, doesn't decide to close his base, furlough, and displace him to another domicile where he'd have to commute. Poor Charlie. He'd have to look for a crashpad, share cramped space with other pilots....or he could move. Either way, it's money out of poor Charlie's pocket for decisions he had no control of. Gee, that sounds swell. I wish Charlie was the same color orange as our RAA friend from Frontline.
