Well over that five years someone mentioned above. Been left seat qualified almost exclusively for 15 years come to think of it (multiple types in that time). Was a Line Training Captain in my overseas gig. Not that it seems to matter much being it wasn’t 121. :/
I did the overseas thing to enhance my resume’ and check a box I felt I needed.

But I guess one has to play the game...
WIA makes sense in a way. My teenager is toying with the idea of becoming a pilot. She might get to AA before I do, too. Lol.
Thanks for the input. That pawn shop idea is looking better every day.

You’re not running for office.

Diversity and Inclusion is very important to American Airlines and many of us that work here. If it's not important to you, perhaps you should focus your efforts towards a company whose values align more closely with your own.

I think that diversity and inclusion is over used at AA. Why pigeon hole people into different categories? Just hire the folks that meet the standards instead of using other criteria. Our company is too PC. That is if you are a WASP then you are a target. Not everyone here is buying into PC stuff that is being pushed our way. Yet people are still treated with respect and allowed to do the job that they are qualified to do.

Had my stuff in for a couple years at least.
7500+ TT
4000+ PIC TURB (Jet)
Master’s Degree
Currently 91/135 but have 121 Experience.
I am wondering if my times matrix is screwed up.
Are there head hunters out there or someone in recruiting I could call? I’m really bummed...
Many thanks in advance.

"So we must work to recruit, develop, retain and engage the very best people – those with unique perspectives and ways of thinking who can help us become the global leader we’re poised to be."
I think in context it is obvious what he means... and.. Wow. So are the very best people those who think the same way? Or does AA diversity include those who think differently lol. It's such a self-defeating philosophy. Can we just fly planes and take care of each other and the customer?
