PSA, Piedmont, Envoy have direct flow through to AA...you just have to wait.
Half a dozen type ratings, two years overseas flying into places a lot of people can’t pronounce, more crossings than I can count, etc.
I worry that my application is messed up and I’ll never know it.
Someone mentioned networking. All the guys I know are as confused by the process as I am. One of my friends just got to United, for example, yet for a couple years all his FOs were upgrading then getting the call instead of him.
Thanks all.
