But remember, you are flying for a DL connection carrier owned by DL... So yeah... That's where you are. No offense, but look at the optics.
If you want to be a DL pilot for your career beyond the regionals, only 9E has you with a guaranteed interview. Off the street, by all accounts, is a harder endeavor. Yes, that's a pun. There are positives and negatives to any regional, but it's a leg up to know there is a interview in hand. 1 in the hand, 2 in the bush.
Agree 100% This is an amazing opportunity for the current and future FOs at Endeavor. I truly believe the interview for many JR FOs will come sooner than later, remember most everyone thought it would take years and years for the SSP to run through the CA list, and in actuality the CA side is almost completely through and it took - what- a little over a year, I feel the FO interviews will be very much the same, sneaking up on guys very quick. Very happy for our well deserved FOs. Well hate to say to all those 7 year FOs whom left for lateral moves.. told ya.
