67 is coming, the train is already warming up to leave the station.

We will see about that. We might have to work until 67 if the union brain trust keeps trying to gack away our retirement. :eek:

I can confirm this, they finally called me(well emailed) for an interview when I've been overseas for the past 4 years. Had to tell them TBNT, they are too late.

Any other wanna-be-newhires notice the references tab on fedex.pilotcredentials disappeared this week?

I noticed the same on mine...anyone know the significance, if any?

Thanks!

When I was in indoc in September they said that references have no significance. The personal endorsement system is the replacement.

On the application, where it has a box for "ICAO English endorsement", is this the same as an ATP license with "English Proficient" on it? Or is the ICAO endorsement for people only with English as a second+ language that took the English exam as part of pilot training?

Thanks!

anyone that has recently received a call for interview complete their 4 year degree in more than 5 years???

I ask cause this seemed to be an unwritten requirement. If someone took 6 years to complete their degree they were pushed out of the pile.

Also talking to people that have asked in the past, turbo prop time (c130, dash 8, shorts 360) were looked at as substandard qualification. They were also pushed to the bottom. (Info I received from others trying to recommend former coworkers)

Anyone care to comment? Experience, education, TT (civilian experience)

I am wanting to help with a recommendation for one of several friends but these are the concerns we all have. degree req, type of experience. I want to recommend the friend that has the best chance to get a call. All 3 are great pilots and hard working but that can not be displayed to a computer selection program.

(our crew force has no information or no way to get this type of information. We are as clueless to the selection process as everyone else out there!)
