Piedmont doesn't have any plans to hire as far as I know. We took in 36 guys from our existing pool, but as recently as a few days ago they've said that we're not hiring for the foreseeable future. It wouldn't shock me in the least if that changes, but officially we are not hiring in April.

What are some stats of recent street hires?

I'm guess mostly guys who already have an ATP and some 121 experience.

Anyone get hired at the mins?

Applying is like the lottery, can't win without playing but as someone with 121 time, ATP etc - the phone is not ringing off the hook. So it's good news there is some things opening up but I still think it will be sometime until getting an interview will come quickly.

Can someone do the math on what the odds of having job offers only with the airlines that aren’t hiring are? I think my students are starting to realize I’m losing my mind.

Every PDT guy I run into has nothing but good things to say about pay, QOL, and morale. I had no idea how good things were going with them guys and how sharp the management team is.

Sounds like a great time to be a PDT pilot. They're putting themselves in a position to be the premier AA WO'd.

How many different threads have you posted this in?

Great, we have one for PDT now lol. IYKYK.

simply impossible with an all-WSCOD fleet.

no F, no wifi, no overhead bins. All of that has zero to do with the employees but 100% with the pax
