ICU,

Go to one of the Air Inc Job fairs... I sent hundreds of resumes to AT over the last 3 years, had AT pilots walk them in, and nothing. Went to a job fair and talked to them and was called for an interview about 3-4 weeks later.....

Good luck!

2 months?? Are you kidding me? It took me 6 years to get a call from FedEx.

Good gouge for all of you guys trying to get on with another airline. Get your stuff out there ASAP!! After you finish your IOE with a 121 operator or whatever you are flying I would start applying. Who cares if you are not qualified. It shows you are interested and have been for a LONG time.

Good luck to all of you!!

FedExFlyer,


HUH? Where did you see 2 months and BE1900 f/o in any of the above posts? You may have responded to the wrong thread...

TV9...ICU said his app has been in for two months. And I think, though I could be wrong, that he was using the BE1900 f/o as as example of one, though not currently qualified, that should get the app in and keep updating it. I don't think he was saying ICU was a BE1900 dude.

I think he is saying that, in general, apply early and often and to a variety.

Walden & TY-


Yes --- You are both correct. I took out the B-1900 reference since it may have been taken out of context. I guess 2/3 can't be wrong.

I was just saying for all of you guys who are flying right seat in anything to put your stuff in with the big guys right away and update, update, update!!!

Ty,

Here there, old man. I see you've gone from rock icons (Zappa) to country "stars" in your avatars. I'm very disappointed in you....

Get with it, man...

Dwight is a (dark) icon in his own right. He was the "bad boy" that no one in Nashvegas would play. . . . give a listen to "Streets of Bakersfield" or "Honkey-tonk Man". . . .

How about Hank, Jr.? Cool enough? Can I get a ruling, here?

 

[flx757]

Well, I even was gonna give a nod of appreciation to Dwight in my previous post, but thought it would defeat the purpose. I would take him over Hank, Jr., though.

But still....

I'm just sayin'.
