Im waay to new to the game to make a judgement so i pose the question.

It's something else, the new planes don't arrive till mid 2016.

This is how overstuffed ORD is, last month there were 90 odd CA bidding, there's 150 on the list. 91 lines next month, 20 reserve lines, 159 captains on the list. Some are in training and obviously October is a quiet month then you add in out of the 90 bidders last month about 20-25 are check airmen... That's 1:4 odd ratio...

We have 2 of our own 175 sims in Denver (third on the way) and we are utilizing at least one full time in STL maybe 2. So far we have (40+18+16?) 74 175s total and that's including the 18 new ones, 16 for Alaska I think...

Things are coming.

I see he's trolling a lot of threads. I think he's really an 8th grader.

Wow the SJS is strong with this one. Maybe you should go to compass. Your attitude would fit in perfect there.

Wow you guys got worked hard!

You too!

I'll admit he got the best of me on the RAH thread but based on his past posts he's definitely just a kid trying to fit in on the internet. But hey, someone had to fill in for FaceBiter, right? This place was getting too quiet!
