Would you leave a good regional for NetJets?

[Guitar Guy]

Do you get typed as a new hire or have to wait for upgrade?

All pilots are typed. New-hires get their type before starting IOE or after indoc, depending on how you want to look at it.

Once a owner realizes they pay a beech jet driver 150k he will cancel his contract, and find some corp pilots to run his own jet for less.

If you understood the dynamics of wealth, the ability to exercise that wealth, and the egos that come with it, you'd understand why your statement couldn't be further from the truth. If you were right, we wouldn't be making the money we're making now.

One is the 2nd best President (after Reagan) we have had in our lifetimes.

BWAAAAAAHAAAAAHAAAAHAAAHAAAAAHAAAA!!!!! *gasp* *snort* BWAAAAAAAHAAAAAHAAAAHAAAAHAAAHAAAA!!!! *gasp* *sniff*

Just think back over your life and try to find a time when things were better than they are now.... Only the 80's.

You mean when deficit spending was out of control, and real estate came crashing down at the end?

Kinda reminds me of right now, actually....

Okay...my eyes are closed and I'm thinking....

My entire state could be flooded if predictions are correct on Global Warming and the seas rising 25 some feet.

Peak Oil concerns make global meltdown a real possibility.

Every two years or every election cycle (depending how you look at it) my government scares the hell out me with the War on Terror.

There's also a War on Drugs

...And a War on the Middle Class

...And a War on the Constitution

...And a War on Family Values

Every time I go to work I pass by the TSA. Do I need to say more?

I can't sell my home now due to a wonderful housing market.

We owe more money than you could possible believe. Really...there are a hundred times fewer stars in the Milky Way Galaxy than US Dollars we owe. US Debt: 9 Trillion. Stars in Galaxy: 100 Billion

We have Super Flu that is immune to antibiotics. Guess where you get this bug....the hospital. That's great.

Killer Bees. Do I need to say more here?

Our schools are HORRIBLE. They do little other than teach a test. Instead of no child left behind it's no child gets ahead. The weakest link in every class is now the bar.

The nations jobs are being exported much faster than our goods. This would be okay if we had a robust education system that kept us ahead, but see above. We don't.

Our citizens care more about Britney Spears than they do about our combat troops in Iraq.

Roe V. Wade is being chipped away at.

There's a lunar eclipse right now.

American Idol is on right now.

Right now is the worst my life has ever been. Republicans can kiss my @ss!

I am a Capt at OO and thinking about going to NetJets. Good move?

Its a good question and not that easy of an answer. I made the move from regional to fractional and thought it was a good move, but...seven days is a long time to be gone every time you leave. I liked the schedule, but its not for everyone. If your getting 18 or so days off now and live where your based, etc, it should be a harder decision. For some people, I thing NJ is a great job and that schedule works great, but its not for everyone, and there isn't much flexability for your schedule if you need certain days off each month. Everybody has to make their own determination of what makes a job good to them.

It sucks to be him. earth warming since the last ice-age and the government cant do anything about it.... damn.... Paid to much for his house ... govt's fault you know. Kids are too dumb to get into private school... yep its my fault.

You know there is a place close by where the govt provides housing and schooling and medical... its called Cuba. That wonderful place that Ms Reno sent Elian to. The only illegal alien the libs want to deport.... while terrorists were taking flying lessons nearby.

Thanks Gen Reno.... Bang-up job keeping us safe from 6 yr old Cuban boy whose mother died trying to escape Fidel's paradise.

Thats why we have TSA lines... and you know they work ... Tampa Passenger Had Box Cutter In Hollowed-Out Book!
