TIS said:In fact, what I did was criticize the concept of an operator putting a novice where a seasoned professional should be - if for no other reason than to protect the owner's $17 - $30 milllion investment - and you came back like I'd taken a shot directly at you.
I guess I'll hang it up now. No one here cares what I think if they're on the other side of my opinion anyway.

Look at it this way...a Gulfstream is the corporate flying equivalent of a 767 or 777 in the airline world. It is an airplane that should have two experienced pilots up front...both of which should be paid as such. There is little justification as to why an operation must hire a 900 hour FO to sit up front in a G-IV, just as there would be little justification for an airline having a 900 hour FO in a 777. From what I can see that is the only point that TIS was making, and I agree with it completely. Would anyone blame Gearmonkey for taking the position that he did? Of course not...he saw an opportunity and he took it...its not his fault. The operation that he works for is where the blame should be placed.svcta said:I know a guy that Gulfstream typed in a G-II as a way to keep him around to help them certify the G-V because they needed qualified help running tests. At the time he had about 300 hours, and a multi rating that had wet ink on it(like 15 hours), and was about 21 years old. He passed the checkride. Then he got a job flying in one. It happens! And you know what? He's always been one of the most professional aviators I've known and remains so to this day. Someone said it and they were right: SOUR GRAPES.
