Just a guess, but probably went to United or USAIRWAYS before the big pay cuts and layoffs happened. I had a "crashpad" roomate in Pittsburgh from World and another from Polar. They both said, as everyone was laid off, that they should never have left their former employer.

In a nutshell, good guess.

Ill tell you why. Someone posted the recruiters number on a webboard and his phone has been ringing all hours at home and work. The way to get hired at Evergreen is by internal rec. So find a friend of a friend that works there and that'll get your paperwork up the pile.

Great pay... The Captains on the Dreamlifter make great pay because the junior Capt has around 20 years seniority. FO pay is a bit tight.

how often do you break your monthly guarantee? meaning do you fly more than 65 hours a month? how is the medical? are you in the CASS system? could a new hire hold PAE? is it commutable?

Depends, some months you can get 80 hrs, some you sit for 16 days and get paid for the 65. Most months people are getting extended to 18 days right now cause the choose to understaff. Just count on guarantee and anything extra is a bonus and you be alright.

The medical isn't too bad, not as good as other airlines, but not horrible. Just yourself is about$100 a month and a family is like $280 I think.

We are CASS

No, you will not get PAE. You will most likely get the Classic in JFK. Possibility of new hires in the 400 in the future, but not right now.

Commutable? Depends on where you live. You only have to go to work once a month and get home once, so usually not a problem.

Do the dreamliner pilots fly the other 747s too or are they dedicated dreamliner pilots?

Hardfast mins or recommended?

And a fourth LCF just flew. Coming to a runway near you.

Right now just the LCF. Those are the only 400's we have....as soon as we get BCF's or 400F's....those too.
