Anybody know if they're going to run a standing bid to bring some more FOs into Phoenix anytime soon?

 

Got this from Mesa today....unsolicited.
Could work for me, though.
How jr. is the PHX base ??
Might be helping to answer your question if it is jr enough, Sulkair.......

This is spam. What was the senders address?

 

Didn't they just displace guys outta PHX or was that only CAs?

 

[email protected], no different than the other '@airlineapps.com' responses I have recieved.

 

I don't think it's a hoax unless someone managed to hack in to airlineapps. I'm curious if anyone with no jet time or prior 121 experience got one?

 

Wow class date without an interview...interesting!

 

I guess it's real. Sounds like it went out to 121 people.

 

Only turboprop glass time here.
ATP written, prior military, no 121.

 

So true! The ONLY thing I miss about Mesa are the crews I flew with. Those were good times on the Dash out of PHX. Wish we had half as much fun here, although being paid a livable wage and not having to work a 2nd job is nice!
