Shamus said:Wow, someone finally got it right. They don't hire captains off the street. I know a scumbag (I.B.S. guy) that was already a G-550 and LR captain and when he got hired, he was right seat in both, after almost a year, left seat in the Lear, and he is still right seat in the G-stream.
What is wrong with being hired as a Captain? My question is, why not hire only Captains (unless you want to save money and have lower paid FO's)? It means that you have more experienced pilots all around and it makes scheduling easier for everyone.
