That's exactly what I meant. The hiring post 2020 will have to be nearly double...

Of course it is Scott Kirby. And I am the former original Chief Pilot for TWA.

They called me Slim. And I flew the Spirit of St Louis to Europe.

It is now hanging in the Smithsonian Air and Space museum by the Wright Flyer, above the Apollo 11 Comand Module.

It was fun being on stage that one time with Armstrong, Aldrin, and Collins. Only Chuck Yeager could have pulled it off. If memory serves me, Bob Hoover, the best stick and rudder man ever was there, as well.

Anyone know if adding Flight Dispatch to a license significantly improves pilot hire chances at a Major (2 wk crs/no cost)? Currently a CFII, MEI/ATP w/2500+ mil C-130 hrs. Thx all

Don't think so.

You can tell what airlines are looking for by the questions asked on the application. If it's not a box you can click on the application it probably won't do much for you.
