poof
somewhat off..however, I have one thing to say..when you all mighty veterens of the distinguished any name mainline fleets were trying to get a job how did you get it? I tend to think some of you clicked your heals and POOF you appeared in the right seat of a 737. I find some of you to be ridiculous and some what childish. You know what? Man I wish when I started a few years back in my little industry killing jet, that I too could go from seminole, baron whatever into a mainline fleet. What oh wizard and only pro pilot do you suggest? Lets see, have you thought or even investigated in the past five years what it takes to get hired to a mainline jet?
I dont like the fact that I really have little hope in getting that seat with a mainline because of the glut and turmoil your leaders have created. I love to fly, it pains me to see the guys and gals I looked up to years ago accusing me of killing the industry. Guess I should quit and go build my time in a corporate jet, oops they want time in their particular a/c.
I am a Captain, I am proud of my occupation, I am an individual that if in a crowded public area would probably be the only pilot. You are an aviator, start being one. Yeah you got more time crapping in the first class lav than I got total time but hey, I am trying.
I suggest you give talks to flight schools be they academy or Billy Bobs flight training center, You let this kids know how to go from prop to 737 etc.
Spend your time helping them out instead of trashing many of these fine folks trying to get where you are.
Ever ask a regional pilot what they want to do, bet you get the same response...I want to go to work for <insert mainline fleet here>. Yup that sums up what I want to do. SO I tell you what I will sit in my left seat 6 feet above the ground and continue to look up at you, and wonder how do I get where he or she is, man that would be what I have always wanted.
I will continue to endure your inane remarks about the next batch of aviators because I know your angry, and dissappointed. Do you honestly think I am out to get you, do you think at all? Are you so mad that you have closed down and are waiting to crush anything that you see as a threat?
Keep your nose up in a turn, basic rule of being an aviator.
P.S. Thanks SNEDS cya in the smoke room.
