Gulfstream,

I have been with AWAC almost one year and have been on reserve the entire time. This is a result of United's uncertainty and the stabilizatoin of our AirTran fleet. We have been conducting newhire classes for several months now and most newhires are awarded lines by their 3-4th month. Some newhires are awarded lines right out of training if they select ORD. ATL is stagnet since our AirTran fleet is not growing. It's a good place to work and the quality of life is good. Hope this helps,

Titan

What percentage of newhires go to the D328, CRJ and the 146? Do most just go to the CRJ?

No more 328's most go to the RJ..

WD is right, most go to the RJ, but last month around 4 went to the 146. Some 146 FO's are upgrading into the RJ, leaving some FO vacancies.

What's going on with the Denver hub? Any opportunity for more growth there?

Hey CP, I don't think so It was shrinking in den and picking up in Chicago. Still one of the best dam regionals in the country and if you get on you won't regret it for a moment!!!!
