You should do more research! Based on Equipment flown, PDT is paid pretty good for TurboProps! And I would put our contract against anyone in the industry!

I have no problem getting passed by a Cessna..... I don't think you have a clue about pride!

You gotta be fresh out of flight school!!!!!

OK to respond to your post. I must have struck I nerve... Considering I had the brains to leave PDT. Also... my times are not correct on here and never where.
I am sorry to say that you will both be going down with the ship. Good luck getting those new Q's!

And I know first year pay is pretty good, but the rest and through upgrade is not that good.

Also, I am not flying a Shinny E170. I am flying a HS125. Making 2 times what a Capt makes at PDT and I am just and FO. Plus I get 7 days off every other week.

Good luck to you... hope you have your life vest on tight.

Ok, I can see going to a nice gig like this. Sorry I assumed you took the pay cut to fly the new US paint. Update your info so I don't think you're some 'school kid' knowing it all before he/she even gets here.

ROFLMAO!

Newhire Question: So, what's an RMI again?

Lear, that was freaking classic. Seriously- we have some guys that FIGHT the captain over the controls on a missed, after the captain says the words "TOGA power, Flaps 5." Never mind the whole "do the thing you do when you go missed."

That freaking dewsh is now at Republic. Thank god, and god save us (and you too, now that I think about it).

First off you need to learn how to spell! "Dewsh" I think is spelt ******************************. So who is the "dewsh"? Also, It helps a lot when a family member is a higher up at the company I am with.
Now I am not saying that this didn't help, when it sure as hell did. There is nothing wrong with nepotism when it comes to getting ahead.

Now, I come to this place just to see how things are at PDT. I still have friends that work there, and I have friends that work at RW and CHQ and S5 that came from PDT. I think they too would say that even though the first year pay is less, the companies are more stable and have more growth.

Well, genius- dewsh is a work-around regarding the auto censor attached to the php script that parses this text into a post for all to see.

You once again prove that you're... a dewsh, above and beyond the fact that you hammer me for a low-brow label immediately followed by the glyph, "spelt."

I truly fear for the cargo you carry, be it sentient or otherwise, and I'm thankful that you aren't up front while I am deadheading on the plane you're ballasting.

So, GFY.

The RMI question must have struck a nerve- did you crash the plane on a two engine ILS during the MV? Is that you?

Good luck flying a Hawker. I have a full 15 minutes in one, from Arlington to Love Field, Texas. Great time had by all. But at least I knew then that I had a long, long way to go- and I merely had 1000 multi (PIC) on that flight.

You miss that extremely important fact! None of us are entitled to a job. Some of us earn it.

Happy trails. Remember your cocky-arsed attitude on this thread when you figure out how full of shyt you really are. I know my dying arsed airline is better off without you.

See ya.

I still don't see "nothing wrong with" someone crashing the sim during an approach, especially with no abnormalities (like in the circling approaches). Wienering up the approach and going around because you're not Chuck Yeager is reasonable, but crashing? Holy crap, you don't need to be Chuck Yeager to not crash.

Chuck Yeager has crashed more than once.
 
That bloated fat a$$ ring wearing looser JK is still working there? For christ sake, why can the pilot group get that slimeball removed?

Nothing wrong with that? If you say so.

It certainly didn't help that the sim is a POS.

JK administered the ride and gave an ECU failure right as we were circling. As PM I was looking at the torques fluttering... Meanwhile my partner apparently got disoriented. In the 1 second it took for me to get back to the instruments, we were 50 degrees bank, 40 pitch down.

I'm sorry that he couldn't fly the box as well as you could. Congrats. My partner can fly the hell out of the airplane, though. Feel free to judge.

Who can't, as long as everything is running, right?

Can your pard do a raw data circling missed, with an engine fire on the go? If not, why not? Can he fly the wet compass in IMC because some of the funking flux valves/gates suck so bad, the AHRS goofs every time off 13/LGA1- and the SAHS is dumptastic in the same tail #s? Could your bruddah fly the plane with a triple inverter failure in IMC?

If he DID get the trip inverter failure in IMC, would the captain panic, or laugh his arse off and promise the beers are on him if I'd (I mean, he'd) just stop laughing too?*

* Just got off the phone with that guy- and he's enjoying retirement. Still tells that story-

"And then my GD'd FO started barking at me! GET ME SOME JOOOO-UICE, man! My neck hurts!"

That guy who started crying when he had to go missed (at IPT I believe)....

YOU DA MAN! It was SCE.

That's freaking hilarious... well played!

Ya know what- he DID IT AGAIN a week ago! Fought the captain on the missed, wouldn't TOGA/5/Gear, etc. What a sad sack of feces. On the return, refused to put flaps at 35- because that's not approved in IMC. Single pilot operation in moderate turb with low cigs. Nice! SEEEE YA!

WTF?!??!
