I'm sorry you haven't heard from anyone yet, but I've heard similar stories from other guys. One guy I talked to got out as an 0-4, did some substitute teaching, interviewed at every guard unit he could find, and worked construction for 8$/hr until he got a job with Comair. He's now at FDX. I truly hope you get on where you want to, we could always use more good AF types at FDX, in the meantime, however, I would strongly consider bringing the regionals into your crosscheck. I've met a ton of guys at my company who came from Pinnacle, AirTran, Comair, etc. My best AF buddy worked at Netjets for about a month until he got hired at SWA. I remember many years ago when my dad retired from the AF and was unemployed for 6 months until he got some job offers. He was a wreck the whole time. You need to keep flying, bottom line, if you want to keep the airlines an option.
