He sold his soul to the rich& famous.

So you're no different than a Norwegian guy. He/she is just trying to get their flight time and move on too. I love how regional guys who are taking legitimate mainline flying are horrified by another guy doing the same. Regional. Mil. Corp. Norwegian. I couldn't care less where the FO came from so long as they can do their job.

How in the hell did a regional guy “sell their soul”!? You just sound ignorant and dumb. The ones that sold their soul for a few extra bucks are the old timers at the legacy’s that created the regional model by giving up scope.

So tell me, in all your infinite wisdom what exactly are the regional guys supposed to do to build experience and even have a shot at the majors?

Just ignore him. Ol' Macjet is as dumb as a rock. He buys slip ons because he's too incompetent to tie a shoe.

They did what they had to do which is exactly what the Norwegian guys did. You hired with 250 hours and couldn't spell 'jet' but are now all indignant that someone else is doing the same thing that you did. That is called hypocrisy.

Eh, I imagine anyone in FLL who wanted MCO would have already made the switch. All of the junior upgrades for OCT are MCO. 40 upgrades is still awesome for everyone.
