Wow! I was wondering what their game plan was now considering the 1500 hr rule. So where do they go from here?

Actually, it's not BS, it's an oxymoron.

oxymoron |ˌäksəˈmôrˌän|
noun
a figure of speech in which apparently contradictory terms appear in conjunction

That place can't close fast enough. I'd be happy to see them go under.

Gulfstream is the lowest form of airline "academy" out there. Don't let this company fool you. It's an academy disguised as an airline. There "pilots" pay essentially three years of salary to fly for this dump. This place needs to crumble and burn! I'm on a hiring board and every time we received an application with gulfstream on it we would quickly throw it in the garbage where it belonged. The last three airline crashes had one thing in common. The captain went through gulfstream. Gulfstream keeps this industry in the dumps! Good riddance!

I don't like Gulfstream as much as the next guy. However, lets not forget. The pay-per-viewers are FO's. There are Captains there whom were hired off the street that actually got their job at Gulfstream without having to pay. At least this was the case just a few years ago.

Yeah sure, they might not have made the best choice in a regional airline. However, the Captain pay is better than Great Lakes or CummutAir.
