At this point I don’t think that line pilots could care less if someone got vaccinated or not.

Your mileage may vary. I've experienced both extremes.

Not caring what either side thinks makes it easy, however I can’t even remember the last time that the topic has come up. If they want to rant (about anything), just tell them that you don’t care. Works like a charm. Watching their blood boil is also cheap entertainment on a long trip.
FOs are about being a Chamaeleon. Just nod and smile then find common ground and run with that. Usually works for me. |

Have a friend that would intentionally make a particular CA’s blood boil for the entertainment 😂 Granted, the CA one of those people that no one wanted to fly with. This was at his previous carrier.

We had a captain in IAH years ago that was hard core religious right and always wanted to talk about how messed up other opinions were. One trip I was a hardcore atheist conservative Republican, one trip a devout Christian far left democrat, etc. It was fun messing with him for a while, but I got tired of playing games or trying to just get along. That’s when I learned to tell people that I just don’t care. For some live and let live is great as long as you agree with their views. Its just easier when you don’t play the game.

You’re misinformed. The rare delta hires with zero Turbine PIC meet very high standards in their academic background. No degree with 2100 hours total time and 1,000 of that being right seat time ain’t cutting it. That’s the definition of a scrub hire.
I’m willing to bet that zero to hero pilot was at commutair BECAUSE they had no 4 year degree. The kid probably couldn’t get an interview invite at the top regionals. I want you to think about that one for a second. |
Sounds like I need to go ahead and get my app in.
2600 TT 2000 Turbine 350 TPIC 3 PIC types, A+P, CFI/II/MEI No degree or 121. I also worked for FlightSafety and was director of training for a small 135 outfit, which interviewers seem to like when they see it. I know I’m near the bottom of the barrel but it’s starting to look like I might be close? |

I was one of those nut-jobs that stayed in corporate too long. Then the airplane goes on a 135 certificate and I wonder what the heck I’m doing still here.
