Yes! You want to work for Eagle.

Unfortunately there aren't too many options out there. The rug was swept out from under me in March when Aloha went under and I haven't been in the cockpit since. If you ask me, Eagle can't be as bad as not flying at all.

Further, right now I'd imagine new interviews are probably on hold due to the apparent possibility of schedule reductions.

Good luck!

I found an e-mail address fo someone in HR, sent my resume, and received an e-mail today to schedule an interview.

Wow. Um, I'd imagine you may as well not plan on that anymore. Amazing. See the other threads regarding AA/AE's reductions if you don't follow me.

Sorry.

Hiring will now stop. Sucks for those in class now. AE parking 35-40 regional jets plus some turbo-props. Looks like all the ERJ 135s plus a few Saabs. At 6.8 pilots per aircraft looks like roughly 300 pilots. I have 346 under me right now. I just might..maybe...barely...hopefully survive by the skin of my teeth.
