Emirates... regional pilots no longer qualified to work for us

[samballs]

Not if you could fly the A-380. That would be awesome.

Maybe you could go there and clear the fields for that plane to takeoff

It doesn't matter they will be bought by RAH and only E175 pilots will be allowed to fly. Is there such a thing as arab teamsters?

They can get 3rd world pilots now who've been on A320's and 737's since 200hrs. And they won't leave after three years or complain as much.. American's are not "competitive".

Why the f$#K would I want to fly an airplane that when it's pitot/static system is compromised, it's sidestick becomes useless and I am forced to fly it in turbulence with only trim and rudder, which snaps off the tail when too much force is applied?

I'll fly a heavy airbus when somebody kidnaps me, cuffs me to the seat, and I wake up at FL350.

Have at it hoss.

That sounds like a little SJS there....

Dude you have almost 1300 posts and still fall for flamebait.

I'll go back to flight instruction before going to work and live other there...

Don't worry - they probably wouldn't take you anyway.

Boeings brake apart in turbulence, too. Nice try though, the A380 is still a nice airplane.

That minimum will be erased here in the next few years....

The attrition sh*t storm that is coming will effect everybody....

Right you are. When I was down there in '06 4 out of 6 candidates were RJ driver (CA + FO). Supply and demand, simple as that.
