That is the only way the airline get first officers is through that program. Technically i am not paying for my job because the hours i pay for i am not even an employee of the airline. I have no benifits or nothin right now. Once the 250hrs is over with then i become an employee. So really i didnt pay for the job. I only paid for the training in that a/c. After the 250 i still have to go through an interview to see if the company even likes me. Plus i get to the majors MUCH faster then anyone else with my time. While u are sitting around instructing to get 1000 and 1 before any regional airline will look at u. Then when u get that regional job ur upgrade is gonna be a minimum of 3yrs. Me on the other hand upgrade right at 1500TT and start building turbine PIC while u are sitting on ur ass at a regional getting SIC. I get PIC time for another 2 years then get to go right into the majors. Now i am sitting at a mojor and u will still be sitting at the regional not even upgraded yet. Also i am gaining turbine multi and 121 experience before u even think about airlines. Oh yah then i will have my seniority number at a major before u will. Now u get into the majors and they layoff people. Well now u are laidoff and i am still with the company because i got there quicker. Its all ******** about people saying that airlines dont like our guys because we get hired by regionals and majors every month. Say i dont get hired after my 250 well regionals take us after that. Pinnacle has taken 70 of our F/O's with just 500TT this year alone. Express Jet has hired our F/O's this year already. American Eagle has Hired F/O's. Captains have gone too Continental, AirTran and Southwest this year already. To kinda answer ur last question. Gulfstream is not a career airline. The airlines purpose is for people to time build and get enough hours for the majors then get the **** out so the next guy can go through. The only way the airline gets F/O's is through the program. They fly their time upgrade to captain get a couple thousand PIC then go right into a major. If u do all ur training 141 like comair academy its pretty much the exact same thing. Once u have paid ur 50K or wut ever to go through the program and instruct for them well U get a job at a regional. If u say my program has no instruction involved well that is technically wrong too because when we are captains most of our F/O's have very little time and we have to instruct them as well and make sure they fly the airplane in the safest possible manner. That is my 2 cents so take it or leave it. If u call that selling myself short. I still work my ass off everyday so i can get into an airline. How is flying average of 90hrs a month not hard work huh? How is building my TT up just like everyone else for the same exact goal not hard work huh? I am just going a different and quicker route.

Your a schmuck!!!!!!!
and thats all I have to say about that.
 
If that is true, why is it everytime I land in KEYW your pilots come over to my RJ and ask if I can walk a resume in for them. By the way, I always say no, so tell your buddies to stop asking.
 
Is it absolutely unbelievable how oblivious some people are. I think someone's gene pool needs more chlorine!

MARKUS VICK!! NUF SAID!


Maybe RJDC too.
 
Maybe RJDC will go the way of his predecesors....The Guat, IHaveAPension, Rhoid, etc. Of course, he'll be back under a different name but still offering the same weak flamebait.
 
The truth is, I don't know anything about flying for an airline. I live at home with my mom in a trailer. If I could stop wetting my pants, I would be allowed to return to high school.
