Big rumor is that Delta will hire USAir, UAL and AA feeder pilots before their own. Also other companies might do the same.

News to me, but not surprising, seems silly though. It'll still even out. If it's true, it rules out 4000+ pilots at ExpressJet since we work for UAL, DAL, and AA.

Where did you hear that from big rumor from? I do know that psa asked usairways to hire as few pilots as possible from them. Usairways has been obliging.

You would think PSA would want some movement. Especially from the top. To get some of the senior salaries out and new hire salaries in.

Eagle management and every regional management want their senior people to move. But...

...usually is the junior people the one that wants to move. It's just a reality, very senior pilots won't risk going into a mayor starting again at the bottom.

Well, the second part of what you said is correct, however, Delta has established a bridge program with several universities. The scenario is that after gaining the mins and instructing for a set amount of time at those universities, passing all your exams, having a min GPA, etc, you are guaranteed an interview at ExpressJet and then after working at ExpressJet for a set amount of time, you'll be given preferential interview at Delta if/when they are hiring.

I know for a fact that Western Michigan, UND, ALLATPS, and I believe Emby Riddle are included, not sure about which others.

For the next 5-7 years it will not be needed, but as things progress, this might come into play.

You know for a fact the ALLATPs is included eh? Link? Cause ... they aren't. They have no bridge with Delta. They have a bunch of letters of agreement with various regionals that pretty much only guarantee an interview if you meet the mins, which is better than nothing but not worth a whole lot right now as if you meet the mins you will likely be called...
