These boards are still great entertainment. Doing my best to clear up a few items...
Kritchlow: The CEO is very proud of
the operation. He recognizes his employees and does his best for them. His decisions aren't always popular, but few CEOs' are. As far as upper management goes, he won't be the problem. The DO on the other hand...

You'll be surprised to know that getting hired at Alpha doesn't require signing a contract fo fly single your whole life. I've managed to get into a corporate gig, flying a jet with TWO engines, and the time at Alpha didn't hurt one bit.
Bill Lumberg: Bases are need-based. You put in your request when hired, and can request a change at any time. They're losing quite a few from PDK, so you'd have a fair chance getting in there. Go for it!
Lastly, to the most recent posts: the multi requirement is old. Way back when I was in initial training one of the other guys brought up the fact that he didn't have his multi. Answer was "oh yeah, we just put that for when we get a jet. No problem right now." So they're not all that interested in your multi time.
