You will be in shock. It’s not even close compared to other airlines. At least half the ride reports are pilots in the low 2,000 total time with zero credentials, 25ish age range. The trend I notice is they just hit 1,000 multi. It’s fairly apparent United is attempting a different approach to hiring pilots. Maybe SK is trying to prove something, but it shouldn’t just be concerning for safety, but your negotiations as well.

That sounds interesting, but not reality. 50% of new hires are not less than 25 years old. The median age of a new hire over the last year has it been about 35. And yes, I have the actual numbers.

United: “Tell me about a time something didn’t go as planned?”

United: “Hey well at least it wasn’t in a B777! What’s more important is you currently work for the competition, you’re hired!”

You're a sad, strange little man and you have my pity.

Farewell.

You’re not even a good troll. You come across as so stupid and ignorant that it’s so easy to ignore. Try to up your game a little. Of course you’ll have to change your username because this one is too well known as an idiot.

Good luck and have fun

They'll be flowing to Delta soon enough. Have fun with that.

For what it’s worth, I’m a TK guy and the vast majority of our new hires are doing an excellent job and seem to have quite a bit of experience. Then again I’m on the 737, junior guys are getting WB

That’s assuming United hasn’t already picked them off…
