"....Its okay. The system selects the right people who are most qualified for the job. There is simply no need for pilot input from line pilots on who would be a good fit--the testing, interviewing, and process developed over years by hard data says this is the best way to select pilots.

Oh...we'll look at one of your folks...every ten years...and put them in a stack with other similar recommendations... "

Seriously--I've always thought our crew force--the folks who do the job day and night around the world--would be a good filter for selecting some of our pilots for the chance to interview here. I've yet to meet a pilot here who would recommend anyone who they think could potentially damage our company or jeopardize our own future, or be a complete pain in the cockpit. I know we need some pipelines for people not connected, but I respect my fellow pilots enough to know they want good people in the company that affects their financial futures.
