1500 rule grandfather clause, here it comes!

I don't think there is a need to worry. As far as I can tell the lower time folks are flying...the flip side is that anything more than "out and back" or "high speed" are not in my vocabulary. Two, three, four day trips I believe are only legendary, mythical things-as is going over guarantee. I won't hate thine players-nay-I hate only thy game!

So at which two carriers are 75% of the FOs below 1500 hours? I guess they didn't visit Comair. |
A lot of the new g7 FOs have very little time. They're being recrited from the delta academy and NGPA with very little experience.
Thankfully none of them have dragged a wingtip...... |

"Unidentified airlines" ;)
Hmmmmmm, let's do some deductive reasoning. It's not Skywest, Republic, Horizon, Comair, Pinnacolaba, Compass, AirWhiskey, Island Air, Mesa, PSA, TSA, XJet / ASA, Piedmont or Eagle due to longer upgrade times and relatively high mins for hiring. That leaves Cape, CommutAir, GLA, and Silver airways. Though I'm willing to bet a good portion of CommutAir pilots have 1500+...which leaves only the B1900 operators....oh yea, and G7 Sounds like the testimony was a well-rounded, unbiased representation of regional FO's to me :rolleyes: |
