Huh? I have to ask,"What hiring?' I have been out of the saddle for 2+yrs because of a layoff at a 135. I've been working two other non-related gigs to get by. For the last 6 months I have been as aggressive as I know how to be getting my foot back in the hangar door. I recently was selected for an interview at a fractional. I thought it went very well, but I guess I thought wrong. TBNT letter came very soon after. Undaunted, I continue to send out resumes, network, and apply online just about everywhere I can think of. I hear nothing back from anybody.

I hate to say it but I cant help but wonder if the age thing isn't biting me. I'm 59. I have the TT and jet time to meet all the mins just about anywhere. I'm not scared of work, I'm single, and get along with others on the road fine. Could it be my age,or could it be my currency issue? 2yrs isn't THAT long as far as employers look at it is it? I just shake my head reading threads from folks complaining about work schedules.. When I first started, I was on the road 330 days/yr. Why won't employers look at someone who would really rather be working than sitting around all the time?

What the heck is going on out there?
