Default Pdt Airline
Hello: I submitted my materials this past Sunday. Today is Wednesday and I got a call from PDT with an invite for an interview. I'll fly out on Monday April 2 and interview on 3rd. My logbook stats are: 1411TT and 126 MEL and 1 Turbine, I do have BA and my ATP-Written. Anyone know about there interview please speak! Also have they started a sim as well?

Thanks,

You are crazy. You'll be on the street shortly. I'd go to the interview to practice if I were you and once offered the job, turn it down. Tell them you are not a fit, they pay too little, the opportunity doesn't look too promising, etc . . . . .

I think Ellen is going a little far with this one...but I guess we'll see.

Yeah, I think that's a little far. At least take the job, do the training, and finish IOE. Then as soon as you hit the line, start looking elsewhere.

Why waste time. Try to get an interview at the best place (your first choice) right off the bat. That way you won't spend countless of years in the simulator TRAINING steep turns, V1 cuts, SE ILS App to mins and MA, you'll be out flying the line. Just my point of view. Don't forget, airlines need us as much as we need them. It's an INTERVIEW. They interview you and YOU interview them.

You're right, you definitely want to go to your first choice airline.

However, if PDT is the only place that's calling back, then it's nice to get your foot in the door somehow.
