ATL? RDU? Other.... who knows at this point, all I'm willing to bet is it will be a place in the Eastern time zone, and not DTW.

Upgrades will continue for some time, though I suspect most will only be to 200 captain now, and not quite at the same pace, though still plenty between SSP reserve captains and the additional planes next year... As for the 900, at best a few never ending reserve spots may open up, otherwise it's lifer heaven short of somebody else going out of business creating growth in that size plane.

Oh yeah, where was the announcement from the company? Some fastread union email isn't an official announcement, nor is some rumor from an LEC meeting. Until the company has put it in writing, it means less than zero.

Now they might be lined up right next to the 700s from gojets and the 175s from republic but common man, take a pill.

If someone wants to send in a resume or schedule an interview, do we call the number on the company website where it states pilot opportunities. Also can anyone provide me with a latest interview gouge, and possible new hire bases/ac assignment. And how is the training overall and the pass/fail rate in training. Thank you.

Agreed. As a new hire I advise you to not listen to rumors. This industry is full of rumors that are just that. Base your decision on facts and get the facts from pilots at the airlines you are interested in and NOT the recruiters - remember their job is to get you to their airline. Good luck in your decision.

Heck Envoy thought they were losing all their 700s but the other airline could not staff them so Envoy is still flying most of them. Let's be honest with people considering Endeavor. Great management, people, pay etc. We have enough great things to attract those that want to be based in NYC, so let's work with what have to offer new hires instead of selling rumor.

Training is great and they will teach you what you need to know. Base- plan on NYC either JFK or LGA and either 200 or 900 at each one. I have heard pass rate is about 80-85%. Good luck!

What about those that don't want to be based in NYC?

This is the truth.... If you are willing to put up with NYC as a base (for whatever reason; live, easy commute, don't care, whatever) this IS the best place by far.... If you live in DTW or MSP and hope to be working from home, it's still probably a best bet IF you are willing to put up with NYC for a bit as a newhire and not care about upgrade time (unless you want to be in NYC) If you live in ATL or RDU and feel like really rolling the dice you could jump on the front end of a good bandwagon, but if it's ATL... well good luck with that quick upgrade. RDU, who knows as we've never had that as a base here.

SkyWest is hiring...., but even they keep creeping closer and closer... first it was MSP, then IAH, now DTW...it won't be long before they too end up with that 3rd world country (LGA)
