Anyone get a chance to see this beauty? I almost vomited. A full color 2-page ad.

They even printed the first and last names of all the poor bastards that went through the program.

But hey, they are flying a CRJ-900!!:nana2::sarcasm:
 
They are probably having to advertise pretty heavy to find enough losers not smart enough to see why their program sucks donkey.
 
Looked like they were doing a bit of negative advertising against Gulfstream - with the 1900 marked out with an "X". Maybe that settles the "Gulfstream owns JetU" debate.
 
Hey if they want to pay 30k for pre ground school prep more power to em. Its their choice and their pocketbook. I just don't know how they attract customers with that price.
 
How in the hell are they flying the -900? No one even knows what base it is, let alone who's going to have the seniority to hold it.

I need to see this ad, b/c of they're saying that, my already low opinion of the place just went lower....

Pinnacle?

-200, yeah. -900.....heck, the people that are here don't even know if it's going to go senior or junior. If it's LAX, look for junior. It's too hard to afford to get a crashpad/live out there on PCL FO pay.
 
I saw that ad last night. The crossed out 1900 really takes the cake. If I were some snot nosed kid that didn't know any better that ad would make me think that you'd have to be a loser to fly the 1900 as a "commuter" pilot, as they put it. Lamesauce!
 
Wow...this really rubs me the wrong way. There are hundreds of the rest of us who WONT pay $30,000, because we don't want to bring the rest of you down, instead we're late on all of our bills because we're instructing.

That's irony, since from what I've heard if you don't make the PCL interview you get tossed over to Gulfstream.
 
I didn't know there was a difference between "commuter pilot" and "Part 121-jet First Officer."

In fact, I know several 767 pilots that are commuter pilots! See them every 6 days when they jumpseat to start their trips!
 
Cruise speed on the 1900: 200 KTS. What? How ghetto, they have to lie to make it sound better. I hope I don't ever come across one of these "graduates". :rolleyes: .......or employees for that matter.:crazy:
