Is Air Wisconsin Hiring

[utahpilot]

hmm, I heard from someone in the training dept 3 days ago that all the check airmen are returning to the line in Nov, after they finish up those that are in class now, and hiring is over except for a possible pool.
anyway, that's what I heard.

There is absolutely no way AWAC would reopen the Denver CRJ base. There would have to be a "fundamental long term" change in express carriers in denver for them to reopen it. Management would pass on oppurtunity, unless it was utterly silly not to. They are very averse to risk; I would be shocked if it reopened. Although, with that said and the state of flux in this industry, it will probably happen tomarrow. Highly unlikely.

I heard from someone in the awac training dept that they were going to increase the size of their CRJ operation in DEN. Also heard they were looking for an additional CRJ for the fleet.

Yes, we are going to go from 5 RJ flights a day in DEN up to 6.
The company has continuously said they are "looking" at bigger RJ's.
But then again, SWA said they were "looking" at RJs as well.

Puke Dog, you probably want to check your sources on that one. If you check closely, you'll notice that Air Wisconsin just closed their CRJ base in Denver. Moved everything to D.C. Wish it was true but I seriously question your source.

One of the many, many rumors that are floating around Appleton involves a major return to Denver and flying out west.

As of late July they said they were planning on interviewing through the end of the year. They also said they were closing up Denver to focus on East Coast ops. I was called with 1100/400. It was my first interview, and I probably scared them off with my foaming at the mouth for the chance to fly for them. Good Luck.

I really don't like to get caught up in rumors, but i've heard something similar to what you are talking about. I heard that United is pretty dissapointed with Mesa's performance out of DEN and that AWAC may be making a comeback in DEN.

Rumors.... gotta love 'em!

sung to the tune of:"On Wisconsin"


Air Wisconsin, Air Wisconsin
Hey, this Buds' for you!
It won't matter where we fly to
in our bowling shoe

We've all done it, cause we love it
now it's clear as day,
we're in DC, far from Denver
countless miles away

If we try hard, fly our arms off
we'll earn the right to say
we're Uniteds favorite airline
and we'll return someday!

RAH, RAH, RAH,....

Straight from management - "no more newhires this year, unless there is increased attrition."

Mesa's already been booted out of DEN to IAD. If Mesa can't get it right in DEN, they can't get it right anywhere. Maybe UAL will kick Mesa out once they emerge from bankruptcy? One can only hope! DEN will likely be all SkyWest, all the time.

BTW - That's some funny sh!t, Crashpad!

Correct MESA has been pulled from DEN due to poor performance amoungst other things. Rumors (and from friends in UAL management) is that UAL have put MESA on a 60 day "shape up or ship out" notice. Their recent on time & completion has been so low it's unreal.

Lets hope that they will soon be gone!!

Your time and experience is right in line with many of the pilots in the last new hire class. Keep updating. As of a few weeks ago AWAC was still bringing pilots in for interviews. Good luck.
