If someone thinks they are a year or so away from actually qualifying for the CPP, they should probably start trying to be healthier:)

I'm curious too how many actually qualify for this program.

If pilots don’t start qualifying and being hired by United this fall, that will be bad news for Mesa’s recruiting efforts.

Has anyone that qualifies even been contacted by UA?

No one has been contacted yet probably because no one at Mesa qualifies. I would think the first to hear anything will be the CA’s out of IAD. Crickets.

Meanwhile, CommutAir is making this program work for their pilots faster than anywhere else.

Uh what? There’s plenty that qualify by a mile including myself.

I am just being cynical of Mesa being serious about rolling this out and making it work. They want to attract new recruits, but not lose any captains. Our CPP total time and pic requirement is already 1,000 hours more than any other carrier. Even then, those who are qualified have heard nothing.

All the other CPP programs have pilots actively interviewing with United. Have you heard anything more and been interviewed with United?

What are the hour requirements for Mesa CPP?

calmwinds 08-21-2018 09:21 AM

2,000 tpic or 3,000 Mesa total pilot hours. Must have been assigned to a UAX base for the last 12 months.

Meanwhile, CommutAir is saying their CPP program moves pilots to United in as little as 2 years and 10 days - CommutAir doh to United doh.

That looks the same as what we have at XJT.

Which xjt pilot got hired in 2 years from doh to United in the cpp?

United does not require the 2000 hours of pic time at commutair either like they do at xjt.

I don’t think that the commutair cpp looks the same at all.
