So if my brain is functioning properly, I count 26 slots listed here. Still another 14 or so missing.

Actually, I count 22 flights. (CLT-DSM and CLT-OMA don't count). Is it 41 takeoff/landing slots? Thats 22 departures, so 22 landings also means 44. Is this all the slots?

When filling out an application for Airways can I use a conversion... Ie .3 when figuring out my military time? Also any gouge on new hire flight times and experience.

Thanks

The ones I know of are RJ captains with 5000-6000 hours and around 2500 pic jet time. Good luck. US Airways represents a lot of potential for a new hire due to their many retirements. 50% in 10 years means an upgrade to captain in around 7 years is very likely.

Assuming the status quo going forward. This I can guarantee, will not happen. Follow your instincts and not present perceptions.

Good luck with that...... i was told the same thing almost 17 years ago at NWA and I'm still in the right seat! While retirements are on the horizon, mergers and acquisitions are as well.
