Atlas and military Reserves
Wondering if any Atlas guys who are also mil reservists can chime in on how accomodating they are? For example, if you drill 5 days a month, can those days shorten your 17 day Atlas trip or would those drill days be on your days off? Thanks -

SWA or DAL?
Now that there are rumors that both SWA and DAL may very well start hiring again in the near future (2011-2012), many (I hope to be one of them) may find themselves in the fortunate position of having to decide between these 2 great companies to work for.

Moving up to management
Was wondering what it would take to eventually move up to airline management once hired as a pilot at a major? If you had an MBA and happened to be flying for several years, how hard would it be to get involved in the corporate side of things? If you did, could you still fly a little? I... -

mil turboprop vs. civ jet experience
For anyone who wants to take a shot... I was wondering for future reference if there is a possibility that minimums might change for getting into the majors. For example, instead of 1000 hrs pic turbine, could it change to 1000 hrs pic turbine jet time? Reason I ask is that with this... -
