You have so many arguments going on with like 5 different people on here and have lost track about what you are even talking about. You need to learn to argue in context when you invite someone to do so.....

That's what happens when the world revolves around entitlement, but thanks for the kind words....
If you're one of the displaced guys, you should have spoken up rather than lumping yourself in with plane jane 3 year FO...that's your fault you didn't for the sake of all these arguments. Had you said that first off, these last 5 pages would never have existed. But unlike Higney85, I don't think you are one of those guys unless you like to refer to yourself in the 3rd person....

Why do all prop guys have little man syndrome? I know you envy the power of a jet, but give it up already. Someday you'll enjoy a APU, so you're not sweating balls or starting the propane heater in the cockpit.

how do you know when you've won an argument? when the other guy's resonse is "wow...just....wow...." or some stupid picture/video.

Admit it Purdue, you invited me (and anyone else shafted) into the argument, and got bit in the *ss by it, and can't dig your way out. If your reading comprehension leads you to believe otherwise, or you do not understand the context of my post in relation to your arguments, you should have spent as much time in English class as you did in flight school. You're like the guy at the bar who yells "I can kick anyone's *ss in here" then gets surprised when someone walks up to him and knocks him out with one blow, then comes back 2 weeks later and says "well I had the flu that day" or some BS

I bet any one of those guys would argue that it's worse than a 3 yr FO having to sit right seat for another 2-2 1/2 years...
enough?

This might also refresh your selective memory of why my argument is valid, Purdue...

The Q has an APU. Also, I don't want to get into a debate of thrust rating vs. shaft horsepower but have you ever seen a weight restricted Q? How about a weight restricted 200? But okay, we're jealous of the "power."

1) I thought you got a class date at a "better" regional because you're known as the guy who cried at finding out his position? But you're still here... they not call back?

2) I too, am curious, why so many folks like to "talk down to" the guys flying the CRJs. It seems like regardless of background, we're all lesser pilots (especially those who never flew a turboprop)...

I don't wear my epaulets funny, I don't think prop guys are worse OR better, they're just pilots like I am. I do well with what I've been given, and hope that if I were awarded a different aircraft (regardless of its propulsion), I would pass with a lot of breathing room. I have the same desire for anyone else in training - I hope everyone passes the training and can fly the crap out of the aircraft they're assigned.

I believe hes going to the "Better Regional" because of where he lives. Could be wrong

Also I have seen just as many CRJ/ ERJ pilots talk down to Tprop pilots, whats the difference or your point?
