Usually ranging between awkward conversations in the hallway to flat out harassment. So just wondering on the time frame on that.
Thanks

You might try calling Endeavor and telling them you would be be willing to accept a short notice class if the harassment gets too bad. If I was getting harassed I would not stay for the two weeks. I would just write down the specifics in case I ever had to answer for it at a later mainline interview.

QOL can be many things. Having 17-19 days off and commuting from a city you love would mean great QOL for me.

That said, nothing like getting 17-19 off, living in base and picking up OT for 200% either.

It does seem MIL guys keep coming to 9E and leave very quick. One guy was hired at UPS on his last day of FO IOE.

The numbers of pilot apps compared to retirement vacancies that are looming would support this theory. Perhaps those they are not interested in would have to get a 2nd or 3rd look later just to staff the carrier.

Any 9e folk flown into Oshkosh before? Wondering if you can go just for 2 days? Reading the NOTAMS just wonder if anyone's flown in on a Saturday. Would I also have to pay to camping under the wing? Sorry guys never been before. PM if possible if you don't want to flood the thread

I have not done the camping under the wing so I have no idea about that.

This is contrary to what I have heard. If you get a 6-month re-interview, good deal. If you get the "come back in 12 months", they pretty much are telling you they don't want you. From what I have been told.

Unless you're in a homebuilt, finding a spot can be tricky. Sometimes it's full and they turn away Cessna/Piper/Beech traffic. Showplanes (homebuilt, warbird, etc.) always have a spot.

Don't know if its been posted already, but here is June's Delta SSP result:

There were twenty-three interviews conducted in June. Of those pilots that interviewed; nine received CJO’s (four of which were second interview First Officers). Six pilots can retry in six months and eight pilots have completed their SSP process.

39% pass rate overall.
21% pass rate for first-time interviewers.

Good luck and study hard(er).

P.s. I love how they've substituted "failed" with "completed their SSP process."
