Flysooner, I would heed this advice too. Many of these current or former Pinnacle pilots you **** on WILL or ALREADY Do have influence over hiring boards at a major/legacy/LCC. Not too hard to throw a resume of an OU graduate that got hired on at Eagle in late 2011 with a pansy ass blog into the circular file.

ever heard of friends, relatives or former coworkers? Lots of Pinnacle (or OAL)pilots have friends, and tons have relatives, at a major, either on the hiring board or with an influence, who they could easily call up and say "I heard Bill is applying/interviewing at your airline. He is a donkey butt I wouldn't hire him." Trust me I've done it before and it worked.

Are you kidding me? Aviation is a small world... You would be wise to remember that.

If you'd rather share your cockpit with an internet warrior in momma's basement, go right ahead. I'll take the guy that has the balls to say to my face what he types. Preferably right before he asks for a jumpseat.

And I'm not sure who you know, must not be the right people, but if you've been involved in this industry (not just as a pilot either) for a decent amount of time, you know people with connections and influence. Especially if you have a relative in the industry.

When did you get so sensitive all of a sudden? I never called nor implied you were an idiot. You asked me a question, I answered it. Now go back continue watching the Young and the Restless.

Hopefully it is...but that is not the point of this.

Not saying I disagree, just saying a lot of people u probably wouldn't ever know they were the same people in real life. Also hard to detect sarcasm sometimes on here as well.
