Jump on a plane and go to one of the other bases to meet another base chief pilot. Ask them directly what you can do to be more competitive. The folks here are straightforward and will tell you. Call and set up a meeting with the overall chief pilot. They like to see you pursuing the job, and these steps can help set you apart.
