Welcome guys, great to have you on property.
Someone may ned to correct me but there is a great BBQ place right down the road from training. I think it's Sonny McBride's, we went and it was worth it. I think it was on the travel channel at some point for best BBQ's in america. Does anybody...
LAS a factor
Gents,
Take a look at the April, May, June vacancy.
It looks like 2 more originators in LAS each month and a drawdown in OAK (and other places).
I wonder at what point the company starts sending hard line FO's to LAS and helps to minimize the displacements.
Thoughts?
Stuck in Oak
I bid back to OAK in dec and have stagnated there for the Jan, feb, March Vacancy?
From the words above it looks like April will offer an opportunity to get back to Vegas.
OAK- Well oiled machine, crack town for crash pads, harder commute, better seniority and choice of...
Morris Guys at SWA
There are many.
Flew with one each of the past 6 months, IOE check airman was one. All but one was top notch and happy to be here. They brought A LOT of 737 knowledge to a technology phobic company. IMHO they helped SWA learn how to properly fly the 737NG.
The...
Give them the same treatment as a new hire interview
While it has been a pleasure to write a rec online or letter for a great guy in hopes to sway PD and get him onboard, a negative online rec will work wonders to keep some of these guys that should have retired years ago from coming back...
allpme.com
AllPME.com Worked for me in 05'. Discouraged but not illegal.
Takes 400 pages of dribble and puts in 35 pages. from there an effective "study group" help to narrow things down.
If the website is no longer as stated just ask around, the info is still out there and readily...
TillerTurner,
I do, but it's a call sign from another job and another airplane.
In the military you pick up a call sign and after that most dudes don't remember your real first name. That's not a big deal unless some one with the same call sign does something really crazy and then every one...
Gents,
I just finished IOE yesterday, what a great company.
This data is a week old (7 Aug) but Pd lined up three class in August, two in Sept and potentially one in October. from everything I've heard, that will be it until year end. Beyond a month or so the class dates and numbers seem...
My plan is to stick with a "winner" and go wherever Frank Lorenzo does...um wait a minute, he's going to HE double hockey sticks
(that's one reservation that will be honored for sure)
Good leadership leads to sound decision making by leadership and ultimately to a solid...
2nd K&S, about $7K
I guess it all depends on where you live and the cost to get to the training/cost of the two week stay
Be smarter than I was, study before you get there
This was the easiest method, scanned the docs and then save them on powerpoint slides, from there just add text boxes.
The hard part is when you add up your hours and come up with a different total 6-9 times like I did.
re-check your hours spread sheet a week prior to the interview and...
Some of us made the transition to keep the family from unraveling due to ill planned and spiraling overseas commitments made by civilian politicians.
Money has very little to do with it. When you turn down the bonus and the check of the month club, it’s an aggregate financial loss to jump...
...your head when doing you PA's. Nothing sucks more then telling your pax thanks for flying USairways Express your first few weeks. Also, don't say *uck.
5. Headsets: The company will issue you a ear piece stly headest your second day in training. I purchased the earmold for it to make it more...
Bob_Sacamano,
Sorry to hear about your uncle.
One question for you guys, how important do you think it is to bring a car to training? I can't remember what's around the Holiday Inn or if the hotel shuttle will drop us off downtown.
Airline training is uncharted territory, so I'm trying to...
Skyflier,
Did PD mention if the 6/13 and 6/27 classes are full or are they still building them?
I'm not available until 6/12 (terminal start date) so the 13th would be a tight turn but the 27th would be muy bueno.
I'm reluctant to call and bug them, as you stated earlier they have been...
