I would draw the line at the point I feel someone is making false claims (or advertising PFT). Like I said, I don't think FSA makes any false claims. I think RAA does. The regional airlines are not "growing and constantly hiring new pilots"- they are furloughing, but a select few get lucky and get hired every now and then....and they sure as hell (for the most part) do NOT have 700 hours. On top of that, no matter where you train (with the exception of PFT)- you would be hard pressed to be in the right seat of a regional airliner in 14 months.

Just my $.02 for whatever its worth...
