Hey Speedbird PM me the long version if you have time. As you know they just gave me a class date... maybe I won't like the same things as you? Thanks.

For some I'm sure it works out great. It's certainly not the worst situation, I just think AWAC might work out better, and like I said if it turns out the same then I haven't lost anything.

This is not a pop at you personally but we never did. There are probably 10-15 FO's that have been hired with that time and they came from collegiate aviation. (Not that I agree that they're any better)

We've lost a lot of guys to US/UAL/DAL/NWA but they've stopped hiring so our CA attrition is about to hit a wall. Because of this we've gone back to being a lot more picky about experience.

All the new FO's I've been flying with over the last 2-3 months have had at least 1000TT. Keep plugging away, you can never waste an hour in your logbook.

Well they are flying me out Monday... 625/215 not from an aviation college.

Why?
