Desperate times call for desperate measures. It seems like we're losing pilots faster than we can replace them.

It should be noted that only $3,000 is paid upon successful completion of training. The other $3,000 comes after 12 months of employment. The devil's in the details.

How short is the staffing at Silver? Are classes being filled?

Silver is terrible. Hopefully they shut down. The industry needs purging.

So happy you feel like that. I'm sure you are an ex silver pilot who has moved to American or united and are living the dream. We are trying to make this place better but people like you dont help. Some have families and im glad you want them to suffer.

Mod note:

It seems that people have forgotten, and chose to ignore, a part of the TOS recently in this thread. Let's review:
Profanity

Airline Pilot Central Forums are presented as a professional resource which many users access from within a work environment. Posts that contain profanity or any language deemed Not Safe For Work (NSFW) will be removed at the moderators discretion. Airline Pilot Forums use an automated profanity filter to obfuscate common off color language. Intentional or creative misspelling does not relieve forum users from this section.
Please pay particular attention to the bolded part.
Dropping the 'F' bomb will get you a reminder or warning and the post deleted and depending on the computer - banned.
I'm thinking that most people on the forum can get their points across without resorting to such measures.

I apologise for my use. I was holding back and I could not think of much else to say in my anger. I see the use of profanity far less vial than saying that you hope that my friends and family are homeless but to each their own. I hope in the future ex silver/ Gia pilots leave this place in the forums and well as the property.

Hey hey, take a chill pill bro, maybe a blue one! I work for Silver and yes it sucks but I don't wish for it to shut down. So far every one of my paychecks have cleared! And guess what? I pay my bills with those. Just like every single pilot here does too. Where did you work before you started breast feeding off of American Airlines Tit? You're working for US Air right? Yes working at Silver sucks! But our contract is not that bad. Pay protection, cancelation pay, duty rig. Get your facts straight before you just get on here talking out of your toothless orifice! Think before you post! Posts like yours just give me more confidence about getting a job at a legacy carrier. We're very different and superior than a GLA type of outfit! Just because we fly B1900 and Saabs doesn't mean we're GLA material. Ask any of the RAH pilots how they feel about all their cancelations this past week. We at Silver got paid for those. Believe me Im no Silver Kool aide bandwagoner either. Everyone that knows me is most likely going to be surprised by my comment but you're wrong for wishing us to shut down! You should redirect your sentiment and wish us better pay and benefits. But whatever. Keep on sucking on that tit bro! And now that I put you in your place can you walk in my resume?
