    PSA to take Envoys 47 CRJ-700's.

    Bad analogy. Pilots are the classic car. We are limited in number. Eagle and PSA are dealers along with a dozen or so others. All the dealers have roughly the same classic car, and all are wanting a fair price. PSA just sold their classic car for a small percentage of its worth, thereby...

    What if Capt. Sully was at a regional?

    I'm thinking something like.....these regional pilots are dangerous....with their inexperience, they forget one of the most basic jobs in piloting.... to keep an eye outside the cockpit for other traffic...either man-made or biological. Something along those lines from the "big" pilots.

    What if Capt. Sully was at a regional?

    How would the perception of the accident have changed?

    Previously explained medical condition verbage

    About 1.5 years ago, i was diagnosed with mild psoaritic arthritis (not taking any drugs). At my last medical I explained it to my AME, he examined me, and explained that wasn't of any severity to impede my ability to operate an aircraft. I put the condition under the "medical visits" section...

    Letter of Warning and working at a major.

    Thank you for the information, AV80R. The letter of warning is for a 2 year period. Although I certainly do not want to jinks myself, what would the consequences be if I recieved another letter within the 2 year period?

    Letter of Warning and working at a major.

    The letter of warning was for an altitude deviation. The autopilot failed to capture. I just recieved it. I am on probation at my current airline, so I am afraid to dispute it, although the captain is doing that. I am curious as to how big of a deal this will be in any future interviews...

    Letter of Warning and working at a major.

    If you have one, is it a no-go at a major?

    AA furlough recalls

    How many are getting calls, and how many are going back? Is there any deadline that says that furlough must be called back before a specific time or they lose their furlough status?

    College Vs. Regionals

    You're a freshman in college.....so that makes you what, 18-19? I don't think any 121 carriers are hiring teenagers. Are they?

    Future AA retirements?

    Where's the website?

    Future AA retirements?

    Well 6 to 10 years isn't that long. What was a 'young guy' in the 80's. 25, 30, 35? Where do you think they'll get the guys they need?

    Future AA retirements?

    AA's pilots look pretty senior (no offense guys). How many are going to have to retire in the next few years? Is AMR sitting on the edge of a significant pilot shortage?

    Hey TSTC alumni

    Have you seen the video on their site: http://waco.tstc.edu/apt/index.php My favorite quote at 4:40: "The training syllabus and, uh, everything, meets FAA requirements" :laugh: I don't remember ever seeing Steve out doing a walk-around when I was there. Kidding aside, I think it is a...

    Turbojet vs. Turboprop time at majors.

    I know that the mins for some of the legacy (Delta, Continental, Southwest) carriers just want turbine time. But is there any true preference between having the time in a turboprop versus a jet?

    flight school costs

    Worst yet, enter 70K at 10% interest. Yikes!! That might be a better estimate at starting from 0 time.

    flight school costs

    No Funny I came across this post. I was think about how rare pilots will become because of this simple fact. Just 5 years ago I was able to get all my ratings for around 25K and it is still killing me. Now expect to pay 60K plus. And good interest rates are gone. Look at a finance calculator...

    Low Time Pilot, help?!

    BE CAREFUL! Even though you might get hired, you still have to make it through training. As previously mentioned, ALOT of low timers are getting booted out. If you fail out of a 121 school, you will not get hired by another 121 carrier. If you are not an extremely proficient 255/15...

    The More things change....

    http://web.archive.org/web/19980529113205/www.flightinfo.com/wwwboard/wwwboard.html Yeah, I'm bored tonight. I do like reading about TWA interviews and Eagle upgrades at 18 months.
