So anybody who paid for training is incompetent, huh? Sit on it and spin, Timebuilder.Timebuilder said:PFT: ...you take a position in return for that money which would normally be filled by a paid, competant pilot...
I was what MetroSheriff calls one of the "lucky" ones. Very lucky. (Particularly when you consider I haven't been furloughed...yet.) But does being lucky make me incompetent? If that'd been the case, it wouldn't have mattered how much money I had. I'm sorry, but I take this as a personal insult.
I've met scabs. Scabs are people who are willing to take a job someone else already had. I do not equate PFT with being a scab. If you showed up at ASA in 1998 and didn't have the $6K, you were no better off than somebody who showed up at SWA and couldn't afford to get a 737 type.
