After reading the article from the JS;

The two MD-80s will generate 40-50 million in additional revenue a year? In dollars? Who woulda thunk it. Why not get four and double the revenue?

I heard we had a pool of 20 pilots, just waiting on the confirmation of the 2 88s before a class of 10 starts. Heard one of the 88's is already painted in Midwest's colors. Not sure what they're waiting for...

"Midwest plans to add 15 new regional jets to its fleet in 2007 and is studying which type of larger long-range jets will replace the airline's fleet of aging MD-80s, Dickson said.
The upgrades will give Midwest "more reach and access" to markets, he said."

You guys all crack me up....the only thing I miss about ole MKE! Now, this next statement is not aimed at anyone, it's just my favorite saying that I ever saw hanging in ops way back:

"How about a nice hot cup of shut the @#%$ up!"

Keep it crazy there all!

 

[metroplex]

Midwest just posted 16 upgrades, 8 on the 717 and 8 on the MD 80. They also said to hire about 30 within the next months due to increased flying starting in May.

I am originally from Wisconsin and would love to move back. Where should I watch for the Midwest application window to open? Looks like your airline is turning the corner.

[IdRtherBsailing]

I noticed the website is posting First Officer positions again. A new application format all online now.

 

[LoveGun]

Thanks for the update. I'll be putting in an app today.

Should I list my home address as my Mom's house in Fond du Lac, WI (that's my FAA address) or should I use my actual address in Charlotte? Do Wisconsin roots help?? I worked in a cheese factory to pay for college. That should count for something.

Do you need Turbine PIC to be considered at Midwest? The website says 1500, 500 PIC, 500 Turbine. Im a FO at a regional now with no turbine PIC, think there's a chance?

Thanks

Thanks

with your TT probably not.....you never know though. There are 5 of us syx'ers still in the shallow end of the pool waiting. Hope we hear something soon.......

 

[IdRtherBsailing]

Again, if anyone has a current gouge it would be appreciated. Thanks.

1)Are they hiring without internal recommendation?

2)I am 2500 TT and 900 121 turb. PIC. is that competitive?

 

[Flydaplane]

Probably not, we've got dozens of apps with 3-5000 TT and 1-2000 PIC turbine. I'm trying to get a buddy hired who's got close to your time and the CP pretty much told me that he's not competitive yet. They do like guys from cheezeland though so keep updating. We'll be hiring again and I'm sure it wouldn't hurt if they saw how many times you'd updated.

plus you are not skyway....us syxers are just waiting to be released.....who knows when!

 

[BeeFCaKe]

Was told last week that they are not accepting skyway guys with this window because of all the training cycles etc. In fact I thought someone resigned over it???
Anyway I have not gotten the online ap to work yet. I will have to try again this evening.

[IdRtherBsailing]

Anyone know if they are still hiring into a pool?
