This exact situation occurred when I was a new hire. A manager was in my class. He completed training and was line qualified but remained in his management role. He has since left his management job and is flying the line and I believe working on a few projects.

No problem with any of those. Which one would have prevented the current tragedy?

I wonder if he had as much trouble with the new pilot application webpage as all the others seeking employment here are currently having.

Really???

According to the union, this has never happened before. Who was the manager? What was his management job?

Don't take this the wrong way, but either you or the union doesn't know what they are talking about.

The first, perhaps.

Who called it a tragedy? Oh, wait, was that you being sarcastic?


Let me ask you this: Nothing prevents the VP of Flight Ops from sitting through a Basic Indoctrination Class, and he can go through any Initial Training Course and get any type rating he wants. So why does he need a seniority number? What does that get him that management status doesn't?

I can get you his email if you want to ask him.

for one, he gets a job if someone up the chain relieves him of his present duties.

For another, he can actually fly an airplane.

So when did he interview? Who was on his panel? When did he fly last? Doe he have 100 hrs in the last year, or 200 hrs, or more? Did he have any PE’s? Where did he rank on the “point program”? Too many questions, and a waste of a seniority slot, cause he is never going to fly the line. He just wants to be able to pdo bump somebody on a milk run during the day with some lca so he might be able to sit in the left seat. He is not a line pilot, and never will be. Go back to Southwest, you poser.
