You guys sound surprised that they didn't call you. However, if your profiles are correct, you are not qualified in anything JD operates. I am sure they received many qualified resumes from pilots with time in type. Why would they want to go out and hire a green guy (no pun intended) to only train them in a new airplane?

Yea, well I wasn't qualified in anything TWA, Continental, People Express:puke:eek:r Britt Airways had either. I expected what I got. A rejection letter.

What I expect is for them to continue the tradition. Hire a known entity that plays a similiar game of golf, drives a similiar vehicle and part his (or her) hair on the same side.

No sir I do not expect a company with their profits to actually "train" a new hire. I expect the uninitiated to immediately walk in off the street with daddy's type in hand and start wiping down struts.

No, I am not surprised at all. It is par for the course. Pun intended.

So using your logic, when they eventually change their existing fleet they should fire their pilot staff and replace them with only current and qualified type individuals.:rolleyes:

Get an old IH or a newer Case IH...keep it red.

What size do you have now?

I had forgotten about International Harvester. My dead grandpa would be pissed.

I also forgot about his old Oliver. The first vehicle I ever drove. Hydraulic front end loader w/PTU.

He waited until my mom left for the store. I was probably 9.
