So, is the fifo list just for your carrier, or is it everyone on one list?
Oh, and at Mesa we have had some of the pilots on the American side pass the interview. They will be on the list a long time since they’ll have to get on the United side to start building the requirement time.
The FIFO list is one big list with pilots from all the participating carriers. I did interview with some Mesa guys who are DFW based and admitted they wouldn't be eligible to transition anytime soon. That is one of the many factors that blur the already muddied waters of Aviate.
