CONGRATS AGAIN ON THE RECENT CALL!

Guess I shoulda pursued the check airman thing when I had the chance. Time will tell.....

Rich do you know anything about future interview schedules?

Thanks in advance,
Z.

+1 on the C/A quals

Seems like every new guy with prior airline exp. I've flown with in the last year was more than just a line-dude at their previous carrier (check airman, training ctr, chief pilot, etc). Just the times we're living in I guess...the company can be really choosy these days...

I know for a fact a recent DB selectee did NOT have a 4 year degree. It is NOT a show stopper. Nice to have, but not required.

I agree with NTSing that having LCA or sim/training experience seems to carry more weight.

Good luck everyone.

That's good news! I'm an examiner at a training center, and instructor. Now, if I could only get some REAL recency of experience!
