You all are forgeting about all of us X Maddog types. We were the poop!

Best unnecessary vertical speed descenders I've ever seen.

Now THAT is funny!
Then they fight the auto throttles all the way down.

Kind of like the ANC guys and the CWS?

What do guys do with the CWS?

 

[Dash8don]

They use it.

CWS makes the "Turns About a Denali" ground-reference maneuver easy!

Man, I can't wait to get back.

(Although, I will miss 320kts below 10,000' and using the speedbrakes with flaps. But not that much.)

So is the company going to yank our Seattle paid parking if we currently were displaced to anchorage but choose to stay up there for a couple bids?

They haven't yanked it from the guys that stayed up there voluntarily on the last few bids.

Hiring Info: Per TK Hanger Notes

New Hires as early as FEB/MAR 2012 (meaning Fall 2011 interviews)

Staffing model indicates over 200 required, and that assumes 0 retirements.

Nepotism alive and well. Just a fact, not an opinion.

Minimums: 4 year degree, ATP, 3000 total hours, 1000 hours PIC preferred (in a complex
aircraft), 750 PIC minimum (although candidates with less than 1000 are probably not
competitive in this market). The PIC is waived for pilots with 2000 hours SIC at Horizon.

"Silver Bullet" program under review at this time.

Good luck.
