This is assuming that pilot unions have any power when it comes to hiring of employees. I doubt many airlines would give that kind of power to the union. And if you're saying that you would harbor no ill will toward a bridge program person with 600 hours if they were offered a job you both interviewed with after "sacrificing to obtain your CFI/CFII/MEI," then I call BS. |
No B.S. the bridger sacrificed twice the amount of money I did for me to become a CFI. The bridger deserves the same opportunity as I do, regardless of his hours. Also, I tried to verify it, but the pinnacle RJ that crashed in 2004 was flown by a crew who came up the "right way." Not by a crew of bridgers, so the fear of a low time F/O is pretty much unwarranted.
