What the heck is the ECU? And as far as landing, I'm a total convert to 1050... no matter WHAT LH said in SOE lo those years ago... I've been told that 900 makes the Dash land exactly like a jet (ie, totally freaking effortless).

I've been told.

But yes, the points are valid. If you're bent on flying a R(egular)J for less than what I make, you shouldn't even apply. If you are moderately clever, you can make some money here. If you're truly bright, you wouldn't be an airline pilot, so that point is moot.

"...$5,000 when they join the our airline."

At least they changed the posted mins...they used to say 300TT with a MultiEngine ATP and 121/135 experience, hmm...that's impressive to have your ATP but only 300TT.

That's so typical for Piedmont. I worked there for almost seven years and everything they sent me in the mail had my name spelled wrong.

Honestly I don't see this helping too much (the 5 grand)! Instead of trying to pay people to come here, it seems it would be cheaper to try and do things to make people wanna stay!
Like what you may ask!
1st they could treat us better! How much would it cost the company to have the Chief Pilot call you and tell you thanks for working on your day off! We know that Junior Man really screwed up your schedule, however we wanted you to know how much we appreciated it! Now, the sting of the Junior Man isn't as bad because you know that they really appreciated your Help! Not just calling you after your 4th occurence or when you do something wrong! So him calling and saying thanks, didn't cost the company crap!
2nd How about painting a Airplane, or trying to keep the planes they have in nice condition! We get our arse ridin' about Impressions of Excellence however most of our planes look like Shizzzzznit!!
3rd..... Hell, I don't know! Just do freaking something to make people wanna stay more then 6 months!
This 5k will get some people here, but many will probably take the 2500.00 at trainings end, and still leave!

I know I would if I was a low time CFI!
Also, if they did'nt make you feel like you were going to get fired at the drop of a hat for something like calling in sick!

:blush: Be smart, take the $2500 and run off with PJ into the sunset!!!!!

Wow - they (USAirways) is still riding this tired old dog? I remember way back in the early 90's being sent to PIT to attend one of the first conferences....even got a shiny piece of paper documenting my attendance...maybe I should put that in a frame?

On another note - I've been back in the SIM center for the last couple months after last being there almost 10 years ago with ALG. I don't think the place has been painted or improved since a decade ago.

Same paint, carpet, and old travel posters....but it sure has been fun running into old friends.
