What percentage of Acey FOs have EEO status compared to other regionals? What percentage are guard/reserve pilots compared to other regionals? What percentage have college degrees compared to other regionals?
We can throw around made-up stats all we want--hiring is a complicated selection process that has nothing to do with the name of your crappy regional. There is not a filter option at United HR that says "search for all the Acey FOs, filter out Mesa pilots."
