My hubby went. It was a nightmare with me going to LA and him going to Atlanta the same weekend for work stuff but we survived.
The whole day was pretty much listening to speakers from what he said. Then a few hours to try to meet companies. He didn't get any vibes from anyone really because it was 2-5 minutes to talk to each pilot because they had so many.
The only one he has a good vibe on is Cathay but that is because we were already working on that one before he went. They mentioned to him they plan to be interviewing for SO in the cargo division sometime in February and he was in the book. Whatever that means.
He said the majors, fedex and UPS were packed with pilots while the regionals were just hanging out twiddling their thumbs.
We both came home and of course his free airplane souviners were more of a hit with the kids then the stuff I paid for in LA.

Phone rang off the hook here all week. Only 2 companies from the Air Inc job fair called so far, Citation Shares and Air Net. I think my doing the leg work here at home for hubby is much more effective then the job fair.
