3) other dci carriers (asa, pinnacle, etc. Notice comair is missing apparently there was the mntion by the comair mec that they have no pilot F'ing pilots that want to fly at delta) I had no idea things were this bad between the comair and delta mec's.
4) off the street hiring... all pilots at dci carriers will be interviewed based on qualifications, regardless of being at a dci carrier..
From the horses mouth
Yeah, that's what I figured. That's good news bro. Does DAL hire on the order you listed? ie, after 29 pilots flowingthru from CZ and XJ, does DAL hire pilots from other DCI carriers before hiring pilots from other carriers? I thought after the flowthru numbers are met, DAL will hire any pilots, regardless of whether they fly for DCI or not, from off the street.
One thing I need to add is if DAL skips a class in one month, the next two classes has to be filed by XJ pilots making the XJ number 18 that month.
