    JetBlue upgrade time?

    What is the current upgrade time, Blue dudes? I ask b/c a buddy of mine was hired there back in 2005 and upgraded to A320 CA in 2010. Still the case?

    AA app window may open in August

    OCT start date, estimating 600 new hires (thru next year.) App window most likely opening in August. No more 3-day process like it used to be. All this from several sources at the school house, including union folks. (still not 100% official but pretty close to it.) Good luck to all, gonna...

    KIAD departures to the south, why the circuitous routing north?

    Hi all, I noticed the other day while commuting IAD-MIA, that every time we take off from one of a southerly runway (19s) or even 30, instead of continuing straight ahead (19s) or a left turn to the south (30) on a southerly route (IAD-MIA), ATC has us turning right all the way around to the...

    Airbus trepidation... convince me otherwise!

    OK Folks this question has been a long time coming. I know I'm gonna hear a lot of good and bad from both camps... that's fine. With the A319 only 1.5 years away from arriving here at AA, I'm trying to erase a long running hesitation in someday flying this bird. For years I strongly disliked...

    129 AA pilots retired Oct 1

    Massive chaos here at AA: widebody flying being reduced, pulling out of markets due to massive retirements, losing revenue, they just cancelled the 1st of two November recall classes due to training backlog from retirements... and... wait for it.... ... now they want relief to "protect the...

    Thank You Pinnacle, Mesaba

    ... for giving me rides between IAD/JFK and back. The j/s experience has been nothing short of wonderful and helpful. I greatly appreciate the rides and hope that some of the crews get to read this so that I can meet you in person. I'm also happy to report that it appears that the j/s issues...

    Better job: charter, corporate or fractional?

    To me (121 airline) they all sound the same - same aircraft, same type of flying. But which one tends to be better over the course of a career?

    Corporate aircraft performance vs. similar sized aircraft

    Just curious as to how these aircraft compare to other commercial aircraft of similar size. Example: Most Gulfstreams/Canadiars/Falcons are not much larger than your average CRJ/ERJ... in fact I have difficulty telling the difference when they fly over my house here near IAD (however once I see...

    Sky West Santa Barbara base

    HI all.. just curious as to how long would it take for a new hire to hold a position in Santa Barbara, CA (or any CA bases that are on the coast... for ex. LAX or San Diego.) Was discussing this with a relatively junior Sky West pilot not too long ago. I understand that these bases are only for...

    "Airline types need not apply"

    seen on a few online corporate openings. What gives? I don't think I've ever seen "corporate pilots need not apply" on airline apps. Seems like airline types have a bad rap at corporate flight depts. Is it really that bad?

    The switch from "Shuttle Craft" to "Mercury"

    Shuttle America pilots: I understand the reasoning behind the call sign change (too similar to "Air Shuttle.") However, I'm trying to understand why "Mercury" was chosen? (as it has nothing to do with Shuttle America's name.) Thx.
