What's the point? If he "shouldn't have made it", then why did he 1.5 years ago? What if he had never upgraded? Then he'd be "unworthy" for 20 years? What if he tranistioned to another airframe, and failed? He goes back to his previous "unworthy" seat. If you're suggesting that SkW just passes everybody through new hire, you're sadly mistaken.

And based on your suggestion, since I failed upgrade, I should just pack my flying bags and find a new career. Like you said, not everybody is cut out for this job.


So what is the deal with the website? Someone on our company forums mentioned that nothing has changed with our website and the fact we are hiring. He said they just re-posted it for 2009. I thought we pulled that off of the website once people were put in the pool. Can anyone clarify one way or the other?
