Southern Air Interview

[Rookiy]

I've heard that Oak Hill Capital (Cargo 360) is buying Southern. Anybody have any news or care to comment?

OH COOL! We will all be working for UPS. OH Wait, we will all be furlolughed. DOH.

FYI - Delta and Netjets are hiring. Delta will be adding 50 pilots per month for the next 12 months. I would think 747 time will be a good differentiator. Some newhires are starting on the domestic 757/767. References help.

Netjets continues to hire as its fleet expands and the number of millionnaires in the US grows - you will have good job security there I would expect. Salaries are up and you would have a union to protect your intersts (regardless of your views on unions).

That management situation at Evergreen looks unsustainable - let's hope the investment firm improves the situation (although I would expect a classic wip-saw negotiating situation initially). Good luck.
