But there really isn't a preferential hiring here. They may tell you that in the interview but now we are being looked at like every other applicant. And when we do the interviews we are asked the same interview questions as any other pilot. We have check airmen, with a college degree, etc... that cannot get an interview. The quickest way to mainline from PSA is either have a Daddy that works there or quit PSA and apply from the street. Now with a merger pending? And Doug P. stating that 1700 American Pilots could be on the street? Not sure if it would be a wise decision to go there. F/O to F/O, i would make the jump in an instant. But to give up 60% pay. Go from 3 weeks vacation to 1. And having to commute to PHL to swing gear on a 190. Then the risk of being furloughed. Those that take the risk may get rewarded by quick movement when retirements hit. It's all a gamble. So to answer your question. Is Yes people are getting called. People are leaving. But the selection process is not as simple as it used to be. It really isn't a preferential hiring. |
I'd be interested to know if scheduling is up to their old tricks. They used to pull some crap on reserves that was ridiculous. Are they still TDY'ing folks to CLT or DAY to sit reserve? Or ending a trip in another base and then having you sit hot reserve the next day? Then there is always the lovely "you are the only reserve we have in the system" line of crap. Oh and a word of advice. If they try to give you a high speed make sure your schedule says "Crew On Duty". Otherwise they will try to assign you something else the next day when you get back.

Looks like theres an opening for a CP position. Anyone know if RE is stepping down already or are they adding a third one, like we used to have?
|
RE is leaving. Good for him!
|
Are there any flight time or other special requirements for the CP job?
|
I assume you need to be in good standing and a captain.
