DAL and AirlineApps

[mesaba13]

The only thing I can see asked about 6 months is how many instrument approaches.

Fly High, now go ask them what percentage of those apps are ones they feel are interviewable? I bet you get a number will below 3K

 

[Fly High]

Bet you are right. Some may have a lot of Heavy C150 Time.

What is going on at DAL???? My FO just got hired with 2000hrs...SHE, has no Turbine PIC .....Its not a jealousy thing.....Im remeber leaving my base to fly ATR to boost my PIC to be more competitve and it seems now it was for nothing. To be hired just because ur a girl????? Just not right....I guess experience doesnt count anymore.

i don't know how reliable this is but a friend of mine said that she has a "friend in the dal hr office" that stated 18,000 apps on hand. Other numbers that i have heard are around 11,000.

the pilot shortage is coming!!!

Who said she was hired simply because she is a girl??? Maybe her education level is high - Masters or Doctorate perhaps. No failed checkrides. Flight hours are only one part of the application, not the totality.

Simple, she is probably from the Western Michigan Program with DAL. Done a 73N type with DAL and the FAA and part of WIA. Simply put her quals surpass your flight hrs.

......HIRE HER....Flown with her many times and she's deathly afraid of xwind landings......Nevermind that ,SHE'S A GIRL.......

Hi.

jetjam619: I have been discriminated against, too on a number of occasions (and so has my CEO). All you can do is move on and keep trying. I know it is not the easiest thing to do right now, but if you can do it it will be the best option. Dwelling on the negatives helps no one, but especially not yourself!

Good luck and God Bless!
