I ve had the pleasure of talking to some shuttle pilots in the last couple of weeks while i commute and non rev around.
wow...talk about kool aid drinkers. Seem to have quite the chip on the shoulders...If there is an airline we should all quit and run to and beg for jobs its Shuttle and Republic.
Besides they fly real airplanes. One pilot even told me i should quit my job and apply to shuttle asap!
its the airline of tomorrow. It seems now that shuttle wants to put in a bid and buy skywest and eagle.
wow..
Asked one pilot about the 170 and got the low down...its not a regional, ITS MAINLINE...
better pilots, best pay, best airline in the world.
most were ex flight instructors and this is their first turbine job. I understand there is some loyalty when you get on with a company but these guys actually seem to look down to other pilots
