Default I didn't know they were hiring!

Check out some of the 'updates' at Gulfstream Academy

Plus, it's "Air Lines" not "Airlines".

I called a friend "in the know" and neither are on the seniority list at the airline two of the students, on that page, claim to have moved on to.

I think it's kind of funny, actually because even in the age of the internet, there is someone who is believing it hook, line and sinker.

Well I know it has two guys listed as being hired by XXXX Airline ... but I didn't see it say they were hired as pilots. Perhaps they're chucking bags on the ramp

the assumption would be that they were hired as pilots because they're wearing pilot uniforms in the photos....again, another hook, line, sinker opportunity.

Bah. He's probably a model or something. Gotta look like an equal oppurtunity employer. (I'm putting that in a PC friendly fashion.)

The problem is this probably looks great to the stupid kid that wants to become a pilot.

Hook 'em and book 'em (I dont know if that saying works, it just sounded cool)

"I started my airline career with 250 hours, this a great program."

Yeah, and I started my CFI career (aka PAYING career) with 234 hours, great deal you got there, guy.

As a side note, I know at least one guy that went to Gulfstream to PFJ, and let's just say that he wasn't the best pilot to graduate from my school... far from it, as far as I'm concerned.

You can get your commercial with 200TT with 50 FTD if you're part 61 as well...

Or you can still do part 61 and get your commercial at 200 hours in a plane and log 50 hrs of sim time to get you to the 250 total.
