I'm not surprised if 30 plus guys towards the bottom of the list quit for DAL or UAL or even SWA (maybe they have a domicile where you live) but I'm also not surprised if we are using the words "new guys" a bit loosely. It probably means "guys hired in the previous 3 years".

Hey guys,

I got a call for a May 18-19 interview. Scheduled my emerald coast prep, have read all the summer reading materials cover to cover (except the AF manuals...cant find them) and reviewing the written test info and 'playing' lumosity.

Any recommendations or tips and tricks are appreciated.

Thanks in advance

Take a deep breath, relax, and be yourself! You'll do fine.

I also have heard that we are facing a severe pilot shortage. PC is leaving a mess for his successor. Cancelling vacations in all seats at this time of year is a pretty clear indication that they have underestimated the frustration they (he) have (has) caused.

Heard yesterday on the Jumpseat that over a dozen guys have already left for greener pastures, and over 80 guys have asked for a copy of their records for applications elsewhere.

Plus the fact that the Feds are crawling all over our 767 program and the training department is in utter chaos.

A totally self inflicted wound born of hubris.

When I look at the May 757 and Airbus bid pack awards(which is where the junior guys are) I still see the same or more pilots below me every month. If people are leaving, they must be higher up on the list, because I fall into that 3 yr window everyone seems to be talking about. There may be 1 or 2 missing, but that is about it.
