I am a pilot at VA and I have yet to hear of us showing up at a job fair. I think we have plenty of resumes on file. Just finished a class some of which were from Skywest. I think they had around 4-5000 TT. FWIW.
I actually work at VA and I turned $104,000 with an average month of 85-88 hours. I still get my 16+ off and I really like it here. I do my job and I never hear from anyone at corporate. It's nice to be left alone. The acft are new and we even have wifi on them.
These are hard times and right...
So let me get this right...a guy asks a question in indoc about a 320 type and this "egomaniac" decides to really be cruel and wait until the day of the ride to fire him?
I assure you that there some serious holes in this assertion. Give your friend a year to calm down and then ask him what...
The uniforms will be changed to something more traditional in a few months. The leather coats are custom made and arriving this past week in staggered shipments. I'm waiting on mine.
I am curious as to whether any connecting traffic from Virgin Atlantic will a positive part of the revenue stream? If you look at the city parings, most of the initial cities are where Atlantic flies into.

More Questions Raised About Skybus's Viability
As Skybus prepares to launch service tomorrow, many questions linger about the long-term viability of the airline. While the company is well-capitalized and well-aware of the competitive landscape it faces, it seems to...
You are so right, TWA Dude. I have only once in fifteen years actually denied the JS to anyone. The guy was a UAL SCAB out of Dayton, OH.
If any of you are really all that concerned about Virgin and Airtran, why haven't you been raising hell about the rates at Continental or Polar? What about...
WOW! You seem to really know what you are talking about! So how do the pilots "call in a union" before they are cleared to fly? Please, enlighten us with your knowledge of labor law...
I don't drink Kool aid. I am a professional trying to start over. Nothing more, nothing less. There are some of my friends that have started over at Continental for $25,000 and NO health for the first year. I am certain I have it better than them.
I am certain you are living the dream and you...
It's unfortunate that you haven't taken the time to look into the facts. VA currently has some of the A319 cadre at former IDE. Let me see now...the pass rate was over 99.8% in the Airbus at IDE.
Please don't even mention those of us here at VA in the same breath with the monsters that...
Certifying pilots and the maintenance program CAT II is much less time consuming than CAT III. Besides, CAT II should work for 90% of the low vis landings of which very few are done anyway. You are right, though in that the plane is standard CAT IIIc autoland.
Skybus will operate the A320 fleet with a completely different paint scheme than the on the website. I've seen it and it actually looks very good. They will be highly optioned with two cockpit jumpseats and huds for CAT II certification.
The first group of pilots get 4800 shares.
That's all...
