Squib, you don’t have to make it seem worse than it actually is, which is what you are doing here.
What we don’t know about the CPP is pretty bad, and completely shameful. We have no idea what the Hogan or interview pass rate is. Guys who are on the list have no real way of verifying how many people are ahead of them that have also met the requirements. We don’t know if there is a minimum number of Air Wisconsin pilots that are supposed to be in each new hire class moving forward, and we don’t know if it’s a percentage of each class or a flat number per class.
But one thing we have known is that we were not going to be sending pilots until we had been flying for United for about a year. So your statement “5 over a 12 month period” while technically accurate (I think?), it’s a misrepresentation. “5 pilots over the last X classes” is a better way of putting it.
It’s still not a trend. No way to tell until a lot more classes have started with or without Air Wisconsin CPP Pilots in them.
Agreed. I don’t think anyone who isn’t super senior is putting a lot of faith in the CPP, but we just don’t have the data yet to show if it’s worthwhile or not. If the company would ever start communicating with their pilots instead of treating us like red headed step children it would probably reduce a lot of tension.
