It is a glorified tour. Face time is very important but really..... At least limit to people who meet the min requirements for employment.

It would be sweet justice if most of the 300 slots were filled with 65 year olds holding a sport pilot certificate or the ones that irritate the recruiters at WAI and OBAP because they don't have the qualifications. I wasted my money last year only to be told to get the 737 type so we know you are serious and everyone's favorite, "keep doing what your doing"! Like I said this is just a company scam to use during negotiations.
