What's even worse is he's probably got flow through number.

 

Guess he better get hired onto the Bus or a Boeing.

 

He was hired after the date needed to be employed by to get the FT number, so this precious “snowflake” will have to interview like the rest of us. He was adamant that because he logs PIC time as an FO, is a Compass pilot (in his words Delta prefers Compass pilots more than any other) and he has "slat and engine under wing time" he’ll be hired long before a guy like me who has 7X+ more hours than he does, thousands of hours of legit RJ PIC time, over half a dozen internals and two college degrees.

BTW, the "engine under wing time" came up only when I asked him if he's ever seen a CR7 or CR9 (slats), that caused him to break into the “engine under wing time.” He said that Delta wants Slat and EUWT because that’s what they fly, my response was “ever seen a DC9 or MD88/90?”

My FO and I tried to stay quiet but we could only do it for so long. Needless to say he was very unhappy when he walked away.

 

I hope you guys told him he's a douche.

 

Showoff?

BTW Emirates do require time in an airplane that exceeds 10 Ton in weight... i.e. 700 & 900, not 200.

 

If we start doing that, the whole compass will be under the umbrella.

I keed I keed!

 

I didn't know Emirates had a min weight requirement. I'm not interested in them so that's probably why I didn't know.

BTW: 10 Tons = 20,000 lbs. Even the E120 meets this requirement.

Looks like there's no weight requirement for FO's and a 50 ton requirement for entry level CAs. That's 100,000 lbs., not a signle Regional Jet meets that requirement, unless you're on the E190 at RAH.

I was also told FedEx doesn’t ask for PIC time anymore, instead they ask for “time signing for the aircraft.”

 

Those are the exact two points I was thinking about, but I figured by that point, there's no sense in arguing with an idiot.

 

So any more news of hiring, is there a summer slow down or something?

 

Sounds like he really got under your skin. With the kind of qualifications you say you have, one wonders why you feel so inclined to defend yourself, especially here on an anonymous forum. Do you also feel snubbed when your FO's don't call you "sir"?
