Air Wisconsin is like other regionals. They have good people working there and with the exception of a few lifers, everyone has had their apps in for a long time. For some the phone rings, for some it doesn’t. It’s not like you reach x-hours and suddenly have to decide between offers at American, Delta, United, FedEx, and UPS.
