As for the MD80 guy with 12000tt.... Flight time/experience doesn't promise a job. Being interview ready, no hiccups and a clean background does.
Being that G7 pretty much takes anyone with a heartbeat convinces me that they had exhausted their options through fault of their own.
Slats, not the case. I know MANY pilots (myself included) with thousands of hours turbine PIC, college degrees, years of 121 and 135 experience, zero pink slips or other such zombies in the closet that can't even get to the interview point. Much of that today, from what I was told by an HR person at a major, was that since computers "grade" the initial sort, anything that doesn't meet 1 simple parameter gets kicked to the curb because the computer can't see beyond that. You could be Chuck Yeager but if you only flew 300 hours in the past year, but the company wants 400, oh well thanks but no thanks. Now if you were talking strictly regionals, I'd tend to agree with you, however it seems experience hurts you these days as well there too. They want guys right by ATP mins, not the furloughed 5000 hour guy who is gonna bail since he already has his stuff in at a major.

So, thinking about trying to get an interview with GoJet. The dom is St Louis works great for me and my family. Are they really looked down upon by everyone else? I feel that its a little odd myself. Most if not all of the pilots there had nothing to do with the split off. So why is everyone still so p***ed? Now mind you I am not in the 121 now, and I havent followed all of the politics. I have read this link through. Any advise will be helpful! Thanks

This thread does not have all the background story. I suggest you use the search function to find additional threads, if anything it'll be a great read to educate yourself on how things happened, it'll give you a much better perspective and help you make a better decision.

Stirring up the past on this thread would lead to a lock by the mods. This thread has gone surprisingly well for some time at providing updates on the company, hiring, etc. I'd say let's try to keep it that way...

FAA was in the Jumpseat flying to JFK to do an inspection on JFK MX. He said because because you guys are taking some CRJ700s from GoJet. He said MX program was in the approval process with MSP FSDO right now.
He said he didn't know how many, his job was just to approve the program.
