Here's the scoop and I'm betting the farm that I'm 90% correct on this!
1.) Not EVERY PILOT WILL QUALIFY AT MESA FOR UNITED CPP
- what that means? You must do the personality test at United (Hogan)
- you must interview with a united HR/recruiter (may not pass)
that is all to be accepted into the program
2.) American Eagle CRJ 900 pilots WILL qualify
- I say this because CRJ 900 pilots will be qualified to fly the 700 for United. I believe the terminology will read "pilots must be qualified to fly the aircraft as United Express..." CRJ pilots across the board will qualify
3.) Only a certain percentage of people will go
- Rumor mill says 10% of mesa pilots, may be higher up to 25% currently being offered to XJT. But, I don't think it will be that significant
4.) this is NOT A FLOW or GUARANTEE that a pilot will be at UNITED
- This is to stop attrition and to keep people at mesa period!
- History has a way of repeating itself, compass flow to NWA/DELTA? anyone remember those days? yep! now look at compass...
- No one should let a CPP dictate any career moves! Spirit calls you go! Jet Blue calls, ditch mesa... get the picture!
anyway that's my synopsis of this whole program. It is more carrot dangling to keep people at mesa and to use as a recruiting tool!
Like I say, I have a sixth sense for these things!!
