Thanks, BAFAN...I've completed step 1 in the process and moving onto Step 2. And, the position is with DL F/T, BUT will not lead to a seniority position and I am not seeking one. In the current pilot job market and hiring climate, just about every 121 carrier is hiring off-the-street for FTIs. I...
Best idea would be going to an AME that was/is a military flight surgeon and have him check your ears out. "Flight testing" your eardrums as you propose is extremely foolish.

I don't think your analysis fits with the situation here at Piedmont. These good folks here work very hard with old equipment, and have "held the line" for a number of years now. A compromise in order to secure the future of the Piedmont pilot group isn't as disgusting as the deal that was...
