Regional Pilots with "B-747" stickers on their flight bags

[XJohXJ]

Merry Christmas guys and gals.

Maybe some pilots still enjoy aviation and appreciate airplanes.

I saw guys come in on the 1st day of class as a new hire with a B717 sticker on their bag. I guess 300 hours and a BS type rating entitles you to that sticker...

actually, all it takes is 50 cents and an internet connection...

It's the same mentality as slapping a college sticker on your back window, without ever having walked onto its campus.

Good point...you have no idea what the guys background is....or just let him/her have a goal.

So these guys are working their butts off for poverty wages, doing the daily grind at companies that seek only to exploit their long-term career goals, and they choose to carry around a small reminder of what they can still hope for someday?

I agree. Completely unacceptable.

I get a chuckle out of the guys with the "Apple" sticker on their bag. Makes me think of all the FI bashing.

Some people have a sense of humor. I have a sticker that says "One union one voice one mission." I do not have apple sticker though.

 

[Dumb Pilot]

I have a sticker that says "One union one voice one mission."

At least his 747 dream could at some point become reality, your dream don't have a chance in hell:laugh:
