Medical in OKC
Helpful hints If you don't have any names yet at all, try www.avweb.com and do a database search on medical examiners in the area in question. Then you can look up each one specifically to see if they're set up to do First Class medicals. (btw, it's sometimes surprising to see how many... -

Looking for Info on next SWA classes
No rumors here, but remember last year. The July class popped up out of nowhere, and that was it for the year. It seems that things are going better now from what I've been reading (loads, earnings, consumer confidence, etc,...) in the press, so MAYBE we'll see a FEW more classes this year... -

SWA roller bag/flight case recommendation
correction on the link.... Sorry about the link. Somehow the comma got there on the end (I try and use proper English, and we see what happens). Try www.pilotshirts.com (w/o the comma). The bag still seems like a good price ($209.00) Funny thing, you don't really think of finding a good... -

SWA roller bag/flight case recommendation
PNS brainbag not too good on quality Here's my .02 worth on a couple of leather flight bags. During initial at U, I bought the all leather flight bag from PNS. We had the option to get the ballistic nylon on the sides with the company name stitched on it (looked really cool), but I just had... -

Southwest - WHY no assigned seats?
Try www.southwest.com Before about 50 SWA pilots, poolies, and hopefuls chime in to answer your question on this board, which will inevitably lead to discussions on Delta and Leo, and how UAL sucks, blah, blah blah,....just send 'ole Herb an e-mail, and he might just let you know. If he's too... -

Age limit at Southwest?
Let's hear it for the old farts! Man I felt pretty young when I interviewed. Now I've been sitting at this dang computer so long here in this pool, that I've probably shrunk an inch (in height), and I know I've gotten a few gray hairs, not to mention a few more wrinkles.:D When I do finally... -

SWA: No shock, just awe....
It's certainly "Shock and Awe" going on now in Baghdad, but here on the airline homefront, it's just another "No shock, just awe" 1st quarter for SWA. Rock on boys. That company is amazing. Coop Dow Jones Business News Southwest See 1st-Quarter Profit; No Plans to Cut Service Friday March... -

SWA Apps - 1 April Deadline
What???? Chase, I'm not sure what you mean here. Can you clarify? Do you mean '03, or have things become even more uncertain for '04? Last I heard from LL, she told me they're taking 40 airplanes in '04, and they were looking at a total of 140 new-hires for this year (subject to change of... -

SWA Update Package ?
I think I'm still on the Pony Express route. Nothing yet.....We still wave at the FedEx guy driving by every week though. For anybody who received theirs yet, is there a deadline to get it filled out and returned to the PD? Coop -

Hooters Air callsign?
737 Augmented crews I think Hooters Air may be the first airline to fly a 737 with an "augmented" crew. Hey, safety first. I bet they are currently the only airline flying now where the pax actually not only listen to the safety briefing, but actually look forward to it.....especially the... -

UAL news....We aint dead yet.
WARNING, WARNING, WARNING,.... Danger Will Robinson!!!! Be very cautious of airline CFO's and financial spin doctors in times like these. These financial wizzes (and that they are, uh huh) can make anything look good (or bad) on paper, that is until they get what they want from either labor... -

Any Feb 02 Interviewees out there?
The B-ground "Check's in the mail" Opie, I recently talked with LL and was told these updates were being mailed this week. (not using FedEx this time in the interest of saving $$). I got the impression that they are in no big hurry to meet any sort of urgent update deadline since it doesn't... -

Swa April Class!!!
Yo quero 737's Chase, Found this blurb on the Boeing website: "In the other contract, AeroMexico will take four additional 737-700s directly from ILFC for a total of 15 737-700s." Looks like our friends south of the border are getting the phantom four. Luxair was taking the other 2 from the... -

Top SWA poolie questions/answers..
Mike, If I only had a nickle for every time I've heard that this year.... But altogether a very productive day. All the web surfing finally paid off when I locked in a 4.875% refinance on the house to save about 230 bucks a month on the 'ole mortgage. I told them I was an out of work airline... -
