A few interesting tidbits from my last 4 days of flying...
1. Apparently, US Airways has skipped over a whole mess of pilots in the preferential hiring pool and started interviewing relatively junior FOs... As in 8/2004 hire date. I thought the program was supposed to respect seniority order? I guess not. Sweet.
2. Rumors of a PHL base and a LGA closure abound and refuse to die. Discuss...
3. O where o where did the flying go? Lots of new CAs running about, lots more reserves. Not a lot of lines added to other bases after the SYR closure. Any ideas anyone?
Are my ears ringing from the props or is that the fat lady gettin' ready for her aria?
