I'm actually really enjoying my time at Lynx. We have a great pilot group, an awesome chief pilot, and I love the mountain flying. Now if I could only afford to work here.....
I'm too new to the airline biz to speculate on our future with RAH in the mix. But like someone else said, its a nice little harbour in the storm....

The last class, everyone was Part 121 except for one. Three were furloughed. I hope it's a safe harbor, and yes, awesome chief pilot. We are lucky to have him, he used to be the chief over at Reno Air.
Oh, and it's to fly a 74 seat Dash 8 for $22/hr!

Interesting. I interviewed with them on the 26th for the same class. Apparently they didn't like any of us, because they said there wasn't another date to interview at the time, and they didn't let me know I didn't get it until today. I've got 2000 hours, 1000 PIC, and 2 years part 121. I thought I did well in the interview, but apparently not. I at least knew the answer to all of the technical questions, perhaps they simply didn't like me.

Generally I have been told they only hire 1/4 of the people they interview, I don't think that is something to be proud of (just my opinion), but someone here seems to. If you interviewed and didn't get hired please don't take offense. I thought I had blown my interview, while people, like yourself seemed to do well but didn't get hired. It turns out there are some pretty specific things they are looking for.

May the battle of the unions begin!
