Question.....Are there any openings for HOU base....or does that not even matter.

Do the airplanes they let you chose always change?

Has anyone from Pinnacle been hired there?

Thanks in advance.

for all the guys that got hired...did you have a recommendation letter?

I interviewed with a Pinnacle guy. I have no idea whether he got it or not. Seemed like a good guy, so I hope he did.

I had 3 LORs, 1 internal.

 

[vmcdemo]

I had 2 LOR, 1 internal e-mail requesting they interview me.

Hey ASIPILOT, I interviewed the week before you and will be in the sovereign also.

Very excited, can't wait to get started!

 

[asipilot]

pilot125,

Are you in indoc now or are you starting with us next monday???

 

[pilot125]

Starting on monday

 

[On Your Six]

That Sovereign is suuuu-wheet. Beautiful looking airplane and very capable. You'll do a good mix of short-haul and transcons. I hear the Primus Epic system up front is pretty capable as well.

 

[JungleJett]

Starting Monday as well...

See you all there.

 

[pilot125]

OK, my Sovereign slot was cancelled for some reason, so I was just assigned the Excel. Couldn't be happier, everyone who flies that aircraft seems to love it!

See everybody in class on monday!

Hey, the XLS ain't too shabby:

At least you won't get flat a$$ from some of the longer transcon flights you could get on the Sovereign. You'll have shorter hops and stay busy because the XL/XLS fleet is the biggest fleet (popular among owners). Both are real nice airplanes.

Excellent! Welcome to the company and to the fleet. Yesterday's Excel experience: Four guys in the back drinking as much beer as they could find (we grabbed some extra for them before the flight), having a great time. About 20 minutes into the flight, out of nowhere, I hear this blasting through the audio system:

"Stroke ME, STROKE ME! Give me the business all night long..."

They had popped "Blades of Glory" into the DVD player, and had it cranked. I couldn't see it, but I could hear the whole movie. So could Denver Center.

Good times. :beer:
