More like 2004-2006. Exited bankruptcy in early 2007 shortly after hiring resumed.
You are correct, though. I remember riding on DL for the first time in 2005 and couldn't believe how nice of a product it was (esp compared to NW which I usually rode on), but yet they were blowing money out...
Network network network. Luck is only part of the equation. It's positioning yourself to be lucky... find out what you need to have to get hired and bust your butt to get that.
It's the same game for any place that has 10's of thousands of applications on file.
No test is perfect. Its just another hoop to jump through, and a number of airlines have required the MMPI.
What happened to him sucked, but it's also weeded out many others that should have been. A few have gotten through that shouldn't have either. Every test will be like that.
I hear...
Can't win with flyer1015.
I'm gonna go back to selling scope and being an arrogant mainline pilot that can't do anything right, because he does everything right.
That chance will be coming in the 2012 contract negotiations. We HAVE to take it... it's screwing over all of our careers here in the US.
How to do it? I think the most logical and cost effective will be to require that the flying be brought back to mainline as the contracts expire/come up...
Notice the time frame of the comparison. It's what the shareholders want to hear. They are comparing to when both fleets were their largest anytime post bk which was in 2007. We cut capacity dramatically during the economic implosion (avoided furloughing a single pilot, too). The only planes...
Spent most of my time there on rsv... the past 3 months my category has been very short so I've flown most days on reserve and averaged 13-14 days at home.
Prior to that I would usually work about 8-14 days a month flying on reserve. There were stretches 2 sept-oct's in a row where I didn't...
Those FNG's at DL have a lot more time in the airlines than you....
The 757/767 was an absolute blast to fly. I know you can't understand it because you haven't flown it, but I was glowing everytime I stepped in that cockpit. It is everything that an airliner should be from a pilot...
The 07-08 round it seemed to work just fine.
The test "range" was apparently tweaked this last round, causing a couple good guys that we both know to get nuked.
The head of hiring has since been replaced.
I would as well. Scope is neither here nor there, but money is where it's at.
You can have the "9." Mgmt can make more money off of those than the 50's and they'll pass the money along to us.
Where are you moving in town? My parents live up in Golden Eagle.
Employee parking is easy to get, no sida required. The parking is about a 3 minute walk from the terminal. I've found the TSA to be an exceptional pain in TLH, though.
