SWA Application dilemma

[reepicheep]

Food for thought from someone who has a clue (i.e., ME):

SWA rarely hires folks currently sitting in the FO sit (unless due to furlough/downsizing). They want to hire someone who has a good 5-year lookback/recency and is currently sitting in the left seat right now (or the only seat for you single-seat/single pilot guys).


Rob: Your comments represent the other perspective I have been getting from quite a few pilots. You may be right. Unfortunately, US Airways hasn't been cranking out too many new captains the last few years.
