FOs are about being a Chamaeleon. Just nod and smile then find common ground and run with that. Usually works for me.

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.

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?
