I have a whopping 400 turbine PIC and have had my application on file for 3 whole weeks.. no call.. SHEESH! :D [removing tongue from cheek just a wee bit... ] Can someone tell me where to get the secret decoder ring?? :rolleyes:

Yep, one of them is a big time, obvious exception. Made me flash back to the old UAL hiring method of the late 90's.

None recently - GUM has gotten more senior

The commute is through Honolulu or Narita (Tokyo) and is long and bad. Wouldn't recommend commuting to GUM.

CalCapt, I have some questions for you, if I may ask. I see where dojetdriver knows of people getting on at CAL with no PIC, but what about people who HAVE the 1000 Turbine PIC but are short on the ME requirement? I am at about 1550 TT, all but about 6 hrs of which has been turbine, and just over 1,000 Turbine PIC (mostly SE). But I only have about 450 ME time (100 hrs in a King Air C90 and 350 hrs in a Marine Corps KC-130).

Should I even try and put in an app online, because it says that you need 1,000 hrs ME time? Or, should I just be looking for someone who would walk my resume in to the right people?

One last quick question, what would the chances be of getting IAH out of training? That's where I'd like to be domiciled as it's near to my home in Pensacola.

Thanks,

marinepilot

I am not CALCAPT but I think I can answer this very simply. YES you should fill out the online application ASAP regardless if you have the time requirements. You should also try to network and get someone to bring your resume in.

Right now everyone is being based in EWR with most new hires going to the 737. It looks like pilots are being advanced to IAH within 3 to 6 months.

I hope this helps.

Online vs. Walk in
 

This is probably a dumb question, but does Cal take walkin applications? People keep talking about it, but I thought they went to the all online application process?

Answer
 

NO WALK IN APPS. All online but once in system, the who knows who fun starts. Find a friend at CAL and have him or her talk to chief pilots about you.

Agree
 

I am calcapt and I agree with calpilot. Let the airline decide not you.
