But they can go as low as 3200 TT with 1100 TPIC, no LCA. It just really depends on everything else in your resume. Fedex truly hires well-rounded candidates with volunteer work, higher GPAs, etc.

Where would you put volunteer work on the application?

I am not familiar with the new application process. Does it allow you to upload a resume. The frustration with the new application is resounding.

I included volunteer work under my resume.

Did anyone happen to notice the 7 Jan new hire class picture? Interesting "new hire" on the far right.

Help me out here, I fail to see why all the outrage. This was the case at my last company as well and doesn’t seem odd to me. So long as he pays 1.95% I’d rather have a VP that’s on the seniority list and has a vested interest in the success of the pilot group than one who is not.

You help me out first. Did I express outrage? I made mention of the event and said it was interesting. Why would anyone be outraged over it?

I'm only paying 1.9%.

I wanna know when he took the COG test and the SBI. Is he on probation now? Will he have to go through the 6-month probation review?

We've never had a non-seniority number holding pilot in his position, and I don't fancy the idea of handing out seniority numbers like candy. Let's wait and see what happens when he decides he wants to be a wide-body captain.


Please explain to me how his cute trick gives him any vested interest in us. It won't affect his compensation, and he'll still be on the other side of the table during CBA negotiations. Pretending to be a line pilot won't change a thing, other than fooling the naive.

For the record his seniority number coincides with his Jan 7 start date.

the litmus test will be at peak when he is or isn’t night hub turning. You hear that, champ? You and me with two a.m. legs out and two in for an entire month. Let’s see how that new-hire smile holds up.
