Furloughed OH pilots moving to XJ
Just wondering how many of you have made the move? Who has interviewed? What equipment are you assigned to? Any indication of Domicile? Im asking because my interview is on the 30th this month and i would like some feed back, especially how the interview was conducted. Best of luck to all and any feedback appreciated.

I have had my stuff in with XJ for over a month now as well, and haven't heard anything. Getting hired there now would be going to Comair all over again, at the end of the hiring wave and on reserve forever. Also, I don't see why I should go fly the same airplane, affiliated with the same company at 20k/year again. No thanks. I know XJ is the pretty much the only airline hiring right now, but I think things will pick up around spring time as far as hiring.

Good luck guys... I would go, but I dont want to give up my senority number...... If this rumor pans out and Pinnacle hires I might try to get on there, and keep my Comair # if they let you.... Either way, I will be on military leave, but it would be nice to have a # SOMEWHERE to return to......

Interviewed Nov 19th, for a Jan 5th -900 class date. Kind of nervous being back on the bottom of a seniority list, but it sure beats being furloughed. I posted my interview in detail on aviationinterviews.com. Good luck.
