In all seriousness... Which parts of the ATP should I be reviewing?

Any more details on the CPP for those of you who got the nod?

I know a lot of folks considering a lateral transfer for that program--just wondering if anyone ever got more "detailed" details on the fine print.

Aren't you guys doing facetime/phone interviews? Remind me who you are copying? Mesa? Let's be real, your company will hire just about anyone these days.

Speaking for myself, my CommutAir Skype interview was the most thorough technically that I had to do compared to the other 2 regionals that I interviewed with in person.

Get over yourself, and embrace the technology age. Skype interviews are becoming the norm in several industries. Particular when going overseas. I have been to some regional interviews recently, and minus a sim ride and a handshake, it could all have been done over Skype, and saved the company some money.

You don't think EFBs and digital Jepps are a bad thing, do you?

Everything, minus 727 load shifts or multi-step calculations.

The skype is only for 121 pilots with a proven track record. The others go through the face to face. The interview will probably get to the standards of Mesa eventually, but not yet.

What are the trips like at C5? 2,3,4 days?
How many legs per day on average?
Decent neighborhood near IAD that's affordable?

Thanks

If any current commutair pilot would be willing to discuss the scheduling a bit via PM with me I would greatly appreciate it.

Does anybody know where I can find a copy of the new cba (contract)? I can normally just google it and find each company's contract, but had no luck with CommutAir.
