Here's the biggest AA rumor from OBAP I was told by an AA FO... Application window opening soon, you will have to upload a video of yourself to the application. He said he was serious, I call BS.

My guess was this was an inside joke between guys there to see what popped up on APC first. Legal ramifications?

The amount of sever space a video would require would make this near impossible. Most airlines app website crash anyways with just data.

At the Job fair at the EAA last week I talked to AA and they did not accept resumes. They told me they would be opening up applications soon and you would apply on airline apps. Guessing it was the same at this Job fair.

Interesting.... another related thread about AA at OBAP, people were specifically told it would the application method would not be airline apps.

We will all soon find out!

I forgot who I talked too but he did have a little confusion on his face when I asked him if it would be like eagle or something different. He ended up saying it would but he might have misunderstood me and thought I was asking if it would be via applications. I guess we will have to wait and see.

I spoke with Patty Taylor (head of HR?) at OBAP and she said they are hoping for a class at the beginning of '14 with an online app later this year. She told me they would NOT likely be using AirlineApps but instead are leaning toward Pilot Credentials. No résumés were taken.

So, now that we know it's Airline Apps, forgive me a stupid question: There is no column for 'Dual' in the flight time matrix. Should I be counting as PIC that Dual I received when I was qualified in the a/c? I thought that was generally not desired, but otherwise, some of my flight time will vanish (not logged as PIC, and no 'Dual' column available). What have others been doing? Thanks.

The answer you are looking for is in the Q&A section. Dual and student = SIC time. PIC is only "signed for the aircraft PIC" … not "sole manipulator PIC"

I looked there, but somehow missed that, I guess. Thanks!

Ah- I think the Global Q&A section lacks that guideline, but the AA Q&A has it. Couldn't they make it any more complicated???
