"hey man, nice tie you got there....now why is your suit wrinkled, not tailored properly and your shoes are scuffed and dull?" interview attire is 5 part puzzle...the tie is only step 1

You just want a "power-tie!" ::jealous::

That's if you CAN upgrade. Someone I talked to said it might go down to 4 or 5 years, I'll believe it when I see it.

When is your interview?

The classic GQ look. Gets you in the door everytime.

Theres word on the street of a new TA which should help fix that. Bonuses for senior captains to leave and pay cap at 10 years for those who stay. The union guys arent denying this.

American will speed up recalls because of early retirements last month, but right now the training department is the bottleneck. I imagine that will change once enough flights are cancelled.

There arent enough FOs to replace the upgrades, so that is the main problem, and why Eagle is hiring like crazy even though there is talk of reduced flying from the divestiture.
