Got the Rejection Letter from Usairways

[JumpersAway]

What has been the time table on the application window cycle. Are they openning and closing them every few months? I applied in the Sept. window, and didn't make the cut. Pretty disappointed, but we'll keep after it.

 

[CavePilot]

He11, I've applied twice and received TWO of these emails. "Pilot Shortage", my a$$.

And why did I apply to USAir? I thought it would be a nice stepping-stone to my next "real" airline job.

You're embarrassing yourself.

I have a feeling that a "real" airline job isn't right for you.

MY application was in their system for over a year and i just checked my email today and sadly got the rejection letter

I little sad but what can you do

Oh well, for me, it just sucks when you get rejected by a bottom feeder airline. If US Airways wont look at me, none will.

I loved when the email says I can try other career opportunities. Gee thanks, do you think you will hire me as a ramper?

Oh you'd be surprised. I've seen people down in the dumps because some bottom feeder either wouldn't talk to or rejected them, only to score a Fed Ex or similar interview and job in fairly short order.

With that great attitude I'm shocked they didn't want to interview you

ttuite my friend, i have 1000 PIC time on top of 1000 SIC JET on the jungle jet, i thought perhaps flying a 145 they might have given me a chance on the 190 since its almost the same airplane

 

[General Lee]

Good luck with that!! Every US Airways/America West thread ends up with the same old crap, no matter what the original topic was.

It will stop when the Westies are given what they were AWARDED, legally. You just can't sweep it under the rug forever. It will come back until it is awarded correctly. It was BINDING ARBITRATION for God sake. What a bunch of crazies....


Bye Bye---General Lee

You, Turtle, still don't have ONE with actual substance. You can't debate the NIC award, it's a binding award, and eventually it will happen, and I will rejoice with the Westies. It will be FANTASTIC.

[Holy Shiite]

Take your pilot bashing garbage elsewhere private lee. I think everybody's getting quite sick and tired of your constant and boorish attempts to create division among the various Pilot groups...........

Nobody believes that you, a supposed Delta pilot would spend countless hours and tens of thousands of posts terrorizing a stupid message board. Real pilots dont do this kind of stuff. Weeny management types or junior lawyers being paid by the post do.


We all know you are a loser..... Oops, I mean to say poser..... HS

Create division? They have already done that themselves, with their own actions. I remind the offending group, like yourself, and of course you don't like it. You try to forget the injustices your own group has done, but these reminders make you feel bad. Good!



Bye Bye---General Lee

I was a FO on the jungle jet for a 121 carrier and had over 1000 SIC time on it. I don't know what they are looking for. I have a 4 year degree, 121 experience, jet time.

General Lee exactly what other position would i want to apply for. I guess things happen for a reason and perhaps it is better for me. I try to stay positive

have we gotten to where an FO with 1000 SIC and nothing more on his resume has the expectation to get picked up by a legacy airline? Buddy... I had to get 1000 PIC turbine before American originally gave me a ring in 2001... and I was one of the light weights in my class... we had Military colonels and captains on 747s at Atlas, etc.. Upgrade on the "jungle Jet" and then you can complain when USAir or any other legacy airline turns you down for an interview.

Real pilots? I guess you are a "real" pilot. You sound like a NERD.

Division? Your ALPA leader in 2005 D. Woerth sighned the TA which says that the seniority list becomes effective after a contract is ratified. That was ALPA's idea not mine. Yes Field Marshall we are divided until we ratify a contract. What part of the ALPA made TA don't you get? I think the AWA guys and gals will get their ALPA sponsored windfall in about four to five years.

 

[HA25]

I think the AWA guys and gals will get their ALPA sponsored windfall in about four to five years.

So I don't get it, are you then prepared to go that long without a contract? And continue to make 40% less than the others?

Yes I am. I have my own business to help with the bills. Almost everyone I fly with has a side business.

In other words you're fine as long as YOU are OK and you don't care about anyone else's situation or the airline pilot profession as a whole.
While not perfect (what or who is?), ALPA has done more to improve the lot of ALL airline pilots than anyone or anything else.

I'm surprised that ALPA allows US to participate in KCM which they helped develop without ANY help from USAPA. I can assure you, USAPA would be too petty to return any favors (as if they had any to offer, except dragging down the "market rates" and making negotiations more difficult for everyone.

American, Delta an United all recently got contracts that were largely based on the improvement that my airline fought hard to get in 2010.... You aren't doing the profession any favors subsidizing your income with outside work. Either way, good luck with the "holding my breath until you give me what I want" method. Didn't work for my kids.
