I am not saying that as an excuse just wanted to clarify that learning to fly wasn't the only thing I was doing. Would I be considered? FWIW I was hired by another regional, because they had domiciles that would work for me as far as child care (I haven't gone to class yet, awaiting separation). My child care situation has changed and Skywest's domiciles work better for me.

Which means you're going to do what, exactly? Post a lot on here? How exactly does one pilot 'rock the boat hard and long'?

Perhaps a little less nitpicking and some reading comprehension work would serve you well.













Notice CCB mentioned rocking the boat and I lended my allegiance that I'd be willing to "rock the boat" referring to another union drive. I'll also bring your attention to the word "ready" which implies I haven't done anything yet. Good find Sherlock. You busted a forum poster who doesn't have anything to show for their posts. Shocker there.



Truth is there are people talking behind the scenes and another Union drive is probably a lot closer than some anti-union guys would be comfortable with. I'd bet a lot of the people hired in the last two years would be quite happy to vote yes.

Thanks to all who replied. I appreciate the feedback. I will use this advice as I move forward.

Another question, what are the chances of a new hire going to LAX or PSP?

6-9 months to get those bases.

Maybe sooner for LAX. RSR report just stated we are taking 2 175s a month for United till august, right now they are going to LAX but may go to other bases. All depends how fast people want to transition.
