You think they went to Envoy, because they spent all that money at Riddle chasing the dream of flying for.... Envoy?

Yeah of course, you didn’t grow up wanting to be a regional pilot?
But in all seriousness recruitment played a great ground game, bases are decent, SNJ’s, great travel benefits. Heck they were flying 175’s full of BBQ from Dallas up to some of these schools. And then I guess flow is a “safety net” if botch any interviews.

The stories I’ve heard about this kid are unbelievable. Sounds like a first class db. Only concerned about himself and willing to screw fellow pilots over for his advancement. These cadets are something else.

I guess i see things differently. Ya, he’s made some missteps, but the dude is like 24... who didn’t have some F ups in their ear,y 20s.

Why are we talking about people who aren’t Swayne on this?

Anyone from the outside reading this thread would never tell the difference about the commentary and it’s not even about him...

KS is a massive tool who uses people for advancement. I was once friends with the guy before his days at envoy and he made friends with to get something. After I introduced him to some people at AA, he stopped all communications with me and blocked me everywhere. It’s funny, all KS does is hang out with mainline crews. He’s a brown noser who is trying to get to the next level as quickly as possible.

You think kids who went to ERAU or UND have a better shot at a major interview than anyone else?

Alumni connections and the resulting internal recommendations probably do give a bit of a leg up.

Very often it's not what you but who you know.

Very often? More like 95% of the time lol. I can only speak for one company but I can tell you that going to a certain flight school changes absolutely nothing in the selection process. The vast majority of people conducting the hiring process are military/the vast majority of people hired ots are mil. Maybe you guys know about hiring at a company that's not AA?

they have a better shot at rolling one off the end.
