SWAPA is a joke

AirTran running classes ?
Supposedly two new classes of 15 pilots each to cover new MKE base and attritions and furloughees who never came back. Don't quote me on that; should start hiring in full toward the end of the year in anticipation of new deliveries of 737-800s in 2011. -

Airlift guys, Do they still have Dash - 2's?
yeah i agree with mooseflyer. when i first got to the c17 there was some gouge out there that was pretty handy, but with all the block changes constantly occurring or on the horizon, i'm sure it's much too hard for the editors to keep up, especially with the pace of the wartime effort. on the... -

Airtran 717 vs. 737
when i interviewed, they called me the very next day with the job offer, but a friend of mine just interviewed and they told her they'd call her within two weeks if not sooner (but a guy in her class got the call the next day). class dates should follow shortly after that, i think, usually... -
Airtran 717 vs. 737
That being said about the 737 above, I'll give you a spiel for the 717. It's more technologically advanced and is very automated; I love it. For the same time away from home on a trip, you'll probably fly more in the 717 (maybe 4 legs a day for a total of 6.5 hours versus a one leg day on the... -

Airtran....717 or 737
Short on 73 FOs I was in the chief pilot's office the other day and overheard some stuff. I know for a FACT that we are actively cancelling trips due to lack of 737 FOs. Take that for what it's worth! But I'm in the 717 right now and loving it. You'll have fun in whatever you get, I'm sure. -
