Hell if he did he'd notice a lot of pilots are over weight, most carrying a good beer belly at the very least. Hell no offense but I would beg to say I find a hard time seeing him telling anyone how things are now since they've changed so much since he was in them. With that being said ATP has no right to tell you this. Seriously dude I'd hire a lawyer and look into this. It really sound like ATP is doing a fine tippy toe dance and almost crossing the line. The fact of the matter is everything you've wrote so far ATP is wrong in. With saying that I can see the whole not transferring the aircraft to locations. I'm fine with that. However the rest of it is BS. We do need to get Van in here to talk to you. He made it, larger guy and did just fine at Colgan. I know of two in my class that I would say were rather bigger and guess what they are regional pilots right now.

ATP does not traing Airline pilots. They train pilots to meet ratings. In the end they train pilots and that's it. The fact that Jim wants to sit back and tell you whom they will train and wont is just wrong. Heck we are going back to discrimination at its finest. Really you do have a STRONG STRONG case of discrimination. Discrimination isnt what it use to be and you really have a very STRONG case against them. They have to meet their end of the contract and thus this is a business. They did not. In the end the reason you are out is based on weight. Last time I checked that is illegal to do. Just 2 cents.

And incase Jim is reading this like the slime ball he is. I'll be looking for a good attorney or two that you could speak with about this. Because there is nothing more I'd like to see then Jim and his group up there be taken into jail and given some bad publicity. It'd serve them right. If this isnt the lowest move I've viewed in a while its damn close to it. This is just insane to me. Anyone here saying other wise needs to check themselves out of this site because this is complete and utter hog wash.
do you really think the personal attacks make you more credible in what you have to say?

and really...everyone has a valid opinion..just as you have yours. anyone else saying otherwise is considered a valid opinion that may differ from yours and they are more than welcome to stay *on* the site. you don't have the authority to say as to whether people can come or go (just want to make that clear).
