You are right, now that Gulfstream is shut down, where are we going to get all of our gullable low time pilots? I have another important question too HOW IS THE FAA APPROVING THIS?????????????????? We must be paying them off.
Bedford buys airlines - Trenary starts pilot training programs.

I guess they want to keep the low-timers "in house" as opposed to having them train at facilities like GA then hire them. Still though, with all the negative press, you would think Pinnacle would be smart enough not to go down that road again. Plus, there are lots of jobless pilots on the street. When Pinnacle starts hiring again, they have lots to choose from. But I suspect, the majority of pilots qualified for Pinnacle, wouldn't set foot in that place.

I looked for some "hard" info on it. I couldn't find it. Maybe this is something still in the works. Unless the instructors are lying, I'm just going on their info.

Your first problem is the fact that you got your info from the instructors. They're probably sitting around bored, and trying to come up with rumors just to stir the pot.

We are starting an inhouse jet-u type training program. Yet another sad, sad day in this industry. Our executives are a joke, to bad they are in bed with board of directors, who are also...... a joke.

nice rumor. maybe Seven can come up with a better one. unless this was a joke, i would say before you open your mouth, check your sources or put a disclaimer that you are guessing. Delta does have the old NWA options with Bombardier but i beleive their pilots scope is involved blocking more bigger regionals. Oh and this from a good source from a owned regional at delta- that by 2012 delta will try to get rid of 120 crj 200s. bad news for us all.

How would losing 120 CRJ200's be bad? That would be the best thing Delta has done in a long time.
