ATPCliff's spreadsheet made me curious. What are your top 10 (or more if you like) airlines, in order? Why? Have they changed significantly since 9/11?
Without signifcant thought so far mine are:
1. American
Because we live in Fort Worth, won't move and commuting sucks, and they have long...
Just got a rumor from another board that infers the VP of Flt Ops at LCC East said the 190 FO positions will be offered to CEL pilots after the furloughed guys have all had offers. It sounded as if they expect this to happen pretty quickly since interest in recalls is low even for Group 2...
In trying to make decisions about my own career I think I've finally figured out what I wish I'd known 15 years ago when I started. Take this advice as worth what you paid for it but at least consider it if you're looking to get into the airline industry.
Assuming you're young and single, or at...
A little hesitant to post this on FI, but what the heck.
Can't really keep this short in order to provide adequate background, but I'll do my best...
I am furloughed USAir and recalls are getting reasonably close to me. I expect an opportunity to return there on a 737/Airbus within a year or...

Just read a letter in the ALPA mag regarding one of our furloughed brothers (USAirways). I don't know this guy from Adam, but if you think you have had a tough time since 9/11 this will help you realize just how good you may have it. According to the letter this gentleman needs $50-60k for...
It's refreshing and renews my hope somewhat.
In a time when experienced pilots (who know better) jump at the opportunity to fly for alter-egos such as Freedom and *************************s, here we have a group of continually abused and unlucky aviators (who have invested many difficult...

I don't know why, but now they're running a new class for 8 MidAtlantic pilots in a couple of weeks. Last rumor I heard very recently is that they were overstaffed by 70. Things that make you go....hmmmm.
May have a choice soon.
Commute out of the midwest. Want some stability and growth and a place that I can live with permanently if it comes to that.
Input (without bickering)?
Thanks
I am saddened by the attitudes of so many on this board who belittle the Mesa pilots, particularly to the point of intending to deny them jumpseats. Let me say this once please:
THE JUMPSEAT IS NOT THE PLACE FOR YOUR ANGER AND PUNITIVE ACTIONS. IT IS TOO VALUABLE AND TOO VULNERABLE!
These...
Hello,
I have an expired CFIIME that I would like to renew with the least time and effort (and of course $$) possible. Has anyone done a quickie course (say for the MEI) to get the reissue? My understanding is that you can take any of the rating rides and have all the ratings reinstated at...
Has anyone heard official class dates for Great Plains? I heard from a very reliable source that they'll be getting new airplanes soon, and consequently they are behind on pilot hiring. They may be running a class very soon and I'm just curious if anyone's actually gotten a call for a class yet...
