Gulfstream academy to Pinnacle in 4month

[kailuaboy]

This doesnt make sense to me.,... but here goes.

My roommate says that when he gets his Commercial MEL, hes wants to leave our flight school here and go to Gulfstream to pay for SIC time in a Beech 1900... fine, whatever. Now he says that after getting 450 hours SIC in Part 121, he will get hired to fly a CRJ at Pinnacle.

He said his friend did this exact same thing..... by the time he had 600 hours tt. He was hired by Pinnacle and has been flying CRJ for the past 2 years.

This doesnt make sense to me... and seems like the easy way out.


Comments?

I'll save you a lot of B*tching from other people with this one recommendation...Do a search on here for articles on "P-F-T" and "Gulfstream". Afterwards, do yourself a favor and delete this thread.

i know how everyone feels about PFT, but is this really possible going from Gulfstream to Pinnacle in just months?
I aint gonna do it... just wondering.
doesnt seem right.

Can some people get to Pinnacle? Probably.

Can everyone get there after spending all that money? Absolutely not. They may be guaranteed an interview, but I'll bet even that is shaky.

This is a case of a bottom feeder, Gulfstream, selling right seats to young pilots, unbeknownst to the passengers. Maybe Pinnacle believes there is "a sucker born every minute," and wants to get the world's least expensive FO's that can pass muster. Some career.

Do the recommended search on "gulfstream" and "PFT."

Give it a rest.....

Everyone in the aviation industry knows Flight Info is the place to come to talk about PFT. This guy is just trying to start more arguments. Give it a rest man. If you really don't know, then do one of the searches Timebuilder talked about.
