Republic hiring

[flya380]

What's the hiring situation at RAH?

Are they hiring for a pool or are they still running classes?

Thanks for your help

You can't flya380 at Republic. Try Emirates in a few months/years.

l wouldnt completely say "for a while" though. Last summer for 2 months they did the same thing and then picked back up on hiring.

It all depends on what the mainlines need.

I heard we will start again in Aug. This is from an instructor teaching recurrent GS.

Quite for the summer. Still people leaving for overseas jobs and SWA.

Anticipating resuming hiring in the fall, but at a slower rate than 1st and 2nd qtrs.

With brand new flying when everyone else is cutting routes? I dont understand where the new boom is comming from. You all just doubled your pilot group in a year I doubt they are going to be any busier then they have been the past year. They are probably on a vacatoin enjoying not having all the new hires and worrying about flying a damn plane single pilot ops while a new hired is adjusting to the 121 world.

Talked to an S5 check airman yesterday. He's expecting to fly in July and be locked in the box after that.

There is no "boom" other than the sound of $150/bbl oil drums and...if you think the Saudis/OPEC were rich when oil was $40/bbl, can you imagine how they are rolling in the cash now?

The above post is correct, but, there is a caveat to it. That is, the 15 airframes RPA has sitting from Frontier as of the end of next week are used for other uplift. If not, I predict pilot furloughs in the 150-200 range in August. I do not believe BB will bleed cash out for those leases/notes/labor costs with those crews on the payroll and no revenue coming in. Look for a solemn letter regretfully announcing furloughs if no uplift is found for those airframes.

I hope I'm wrong, but unless he nails down some extra flying from consolidating code-shares or charters, he will have to set up triage.
