Oh, now that is funny!!!!!!!! Jobs in Denver/APA, you'd have better luck getting laid in an Iraqi whore house . Seriously, I have not seen/heard of any decent job openings in the area in over two years. Best of luck but I wouldn't hold out to much hope. You've really got to know someone.

Hmmm, that's funny Rice. Sounds just like job hunting here in Scottsdale.

That area has got to be flooded with furloughed United pilots... or maybe not, I don't know. Just by what I have seen discussed on this board over the last 3 years the DEN/APA seems to be a tough nut to crack. Maybe as difficult as say, playing pick-up sticks with your butt-cheeks (John Candy - Planes, Trains, & Automobiles )

Sorry, but Rice started with the analogies and I couldn't resist .

It's easy to understand why they would avoid a furloughed 121 guy. Why penalize (Snort! I said PENALize!) a guy looking to change his career's direction?

My old boss in FL was one of these folks. I asked him why one time, and his exact words were "Because airline guys don't know how to do $hit." (He was a 60 something crusty a$$ old ex military check airman.) His thought was that airline guys show up, fly, and go home, and he didn't feel that they would be OK with keeping aircraft records, planning flights, checking weather, dealing with the boss, etc., or that they could handle it for that matter. I have a buddy that almost got arrested in FL because he was flying copilot in a Kingair with a Delta captain that had NO IDEA how to deal with customs, but tried to act like he did. Also, a lot of corporate operators see airlines and they think, why the hell do they want to leave that job to come here? Something's fishy. Another reason....most people that fly corporate did it specifically to avoid the 'airline' way of doing things, and don't want to hire someone that's going to possibly bring that in. Still another reason is insurance. 11,000 hours of PIC time in a B-747 does very little to get you insured in a Hawker. You need Hawker training and time in type. Lots of operators see that much time, that much PIC time and immediately think, "this guy isn't going to want to sit in the right seat."

However, I'm pretty sure the real reason my old boss was that way was because he didn't want another high time guy flying with him. (I was pretty low time when I was working for him). He wanted a lower time copilot that he could train to do it his way. An 11,000 hour airline guy wouldn't have put up with him.

The Denver nut is tough to crack...been there, done that. Deep routed old boys network fills most postions. (Not that there is anything wrong with that....I agree with hire who you know.)

The "airlines guys don't know anything" is a tired lame excuse. I was an airline guy and it took me about 2 days to learn how to load bags, make coffee, and suck up to passengers. It's not rocket science.

I know, I used to be one too. But......that's not what he thinks. And getting him to change his mind is like trying to get Paris Hilton to shave her head and put on a Mumu.
