Any connection between Memphis, and Cinccy and NW, and Comair? HR people with a brain, now that is refreshing!

I don't know why they keep posting info for the 146. You stand a better chance of instantly being named as the Pope than flying that plane.
A great company though. Been rocky moving bases, but it's going to keep eveyone flying.
 
They can't be too desperate for pilots. I know many well qualified people who have their stuff in, and update regularly, who have not received a call.
 
Aggressive

Gotta be Semi Aggressive with these folks. I had my stuff in and never recieved a call. Finally I went to the open house job recruiting they held in one of the cities. Even if you attend that, they still want you to go for a second interview in Appleton. Even with all the time I have in the CRJ they still want me to fly they're computer game simulator. Whatever floats their boat??
Overall I am impressed by this Regional Airline, I just hope they really do treat their pilots well. If you're unhappy where your at, I suggest you give this company a chance. I am hoping to not have to commute anymore for one, number two they have trip and duty pay!!!!
 
Sorry if this has been asked before, but with the transition to US Air flying are they still planning on keeping the crew base in ORD? If so, how senior is it?

I think if they knew YOU were interviewing that day, they would have waived it, just for YOU. Your letter of apology from HR will be on the way. Another Ex-PCL 'Expert'. Dork.
 
Don't let their mins fool you. A couple guys in my class had 1000 TT and about 100 multi. One guy had 800 TT and 300 multi, but he was flying 135 SIC in a EMB-120 I think. One of the RAA guys had 400 TT, 25 multi and a CRJ type.

PHL, DCA, and ORF will be their bases as they transition to US Air only flying. That's certain to change in the future though...

That's true. AWAC can hire you if they want to. Send your stuff in and call once in a while. WC (ex-AWAC)
