Legendary as in the Good, Bad or the Ugly? Legendary meaning simply above the rest and outstanding or a Legendary @ss whooping like most out there. Must be Legendary within the Regional ranks. I would like to say that ACMI has been legendary regarding whipsawing, but that would be untrue as the regionals and others will have a legendary stake in whipsawing. (Personally I keep using that word = “You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.”) How about we use Classic or something else. Not canceling anything, just having fun.

wrong. In order qualify as a legendary regional, 80% of line pilots must choose to wear the hat and fly no faster than .65 in cruise.

Ozark flew the DC-9 (forerunner of the MD-80) on its famous milk can runs. Memphis to Minneapolis with 5 intermediate stops. They also flew east and west, from the Midwest. To San Diego, New York, Miami, Minneapolis, and Houston. I would not exactly call them a regional in today’s use of the word.

Not to take away from any other airline out there because all of them have good folks who survived the lost decade. The legendary regional that I flew for was XJT. Good folks and I really liked the training there.

Does anyone have a current bead on the number of applications being received, and the turnaround from application submission to interview/no interview? I’m assuming the mass rush of mid-2020 has calmed a little since a few months has passed since the Compass/TSA/XJT exodus (and government money furlough recalls).
I’m not out of work — just thinking about broadening long term career goals. I’ve read back about 50 pages in this thread, just looking for most recent info. |
