I didn't see anyone post upgrade times for ASA in particular. Are their upgrades congruent with that of Skywest or what?

Been following your saga on JC. How are going to get a first class medical with a medical diagnosis of antisocial personality disorder? You've already been denied your medical by the FAA.

Good luck in your quest, but any regional that hires you would be taking on a HUGE liability. Imagine the headlines if you are involved in an accident and they find out you have/had ASPD.

Not to highjack the thread.....however, pursuing my 3rd class medical. HIMS evaluators recommended medical cert. Did all my IOP and initial aftercare work at The Hanley Center in WPB, FL. Their one of the best in the business if not the best. Hanley doesn't see ASPD. I'll let the FAA sort it out. Forwarded all info to FAA back on 8/24/11. According to Medical Appeals Office in DC, should know by 10/24/11 if medical will be issued or not.

PM me.

All he did was ask a simple quesiton which required a simple answer. There was no need to be a total jerk about it. Having a medical issue is not a great thing but it can happen to anyone.

Count your blessings that you are healthy as anyone can lose their medical overnight.

Appreciate the support guys! It goes a long way.

Didn't view his comments as being negative or accusatory, however there's a time and a place for everything. That's how I view it...besides, nothing to hide from me. Since revealing my past to the FAA and to others in different venues, I've experienced a freedom and release like no other. It's all good!

Now...let's get back to upgrade times! ASA...upgrade times....anyone....anyone....bueller....bueller?

Most of the early 2010 hires I've talked to aren't expecting to upgrade this round. Down the road it will just depend on whether or not the quotas continue to be met or not.
Im at the bar now...and I just ordered two doubles....I wish I would have gone to colgan 7 years ago. Instead.... a 10 year upgrade. Fml

Oh you should read his posts about duty times/rest times. This guy said it may affect his perfect schedule, oh and nevermind the rest of the pilots around the world. Hes a selfish person with ZERO class, Id say hes a pathetic person.

Don't forget the post bragging about how, upon buying his second home, he was applauded by his broker regarding how easy it was to close with such wealthy clients with such great credit. And the time he asked a guy WHY he got a DUI. Like it was his choice.

I vote troll. Or classless, but I honestly hope he's just a troll.

Did someone force him, at gunpoint, to drive his car drunk?

I guess that since I've been successful in my career, that I have to keep my mouth shut.

Class envy at it's finest.
