I second this. Told first hand by a major CP; where complex = regional jet airplane or larger.

In regards to letters of recommendation / references, what's the general consensus: using pilots from other airlines (i.e. UAL recs for DAL, SWA, etc...) ok or not ok?

Iceman,

There is a whole forum dedicated to that type of question. It's the "career questions" forum.

Mod's,

Any chance that you guys could start deleting spurious posts (including mine!) out of this thread. It would be nice if guys could have a quick reference to hiring stats without wading through non sequitur posts and even all the congrats posts in this thread.

Liberty,
Congrats. I know you worked hard to get the CJO. Been following your posts for some time.
Hope to be as fortunate as you in the near future.
Good Luck.
