I interviewed in February, was told a class date of early April over the phone. Passed the interview and was told late Summer, probably Fall. It's a pretty rough wait in this hiring environment.

Consequently, I started looking elsewhere and found several 121 gigs that started pretty much right away. Decided to wait for 9E, but then the part 91/135 contract offers started coming in. It’s going to be tough to leave that part of the private stuff behind. It seems that everyone except Endeavor is hurting for pilots.
We aren't hurting for new hires, we are hurting for captains. We ran the well dry of qualified FO's willing to put up with New York as captains and then kept trying to send more there... It helped create a shortage of captains. A wise bidding senior FO can make about as much as a reserve captain with much better quality of life here (and that's without factoring in the suck of commuting to a co-domicile New York)

I know some who were turned away who have the 121 captain mins. I’m pretty close myself. If they had looked into it a little closer, they might have had a couple of quick upgrades.

When i was in the ENY LGA crew room the other day on a sit, there were at least 3 new hire CA’s that interviewed dec/jan/feb that have CJO’s with a EDV and waiting on a class date. Just to put things in perspective for you.

I’m sure there’s a bunch of other street CA’s/1000+ 121 hour candidates waiting on start dates.

Union has always fought this and rightly so.

Pay increases should go to every pilot.

We already pay too much in hiring bonus that the pilot group as a whole does not see.

If pay is the issue then lets raise the whole group's pay again.
