US Air Interview

[Turtle21]

There is no such thing as ex-piedmont. Only Marines are more taken aback by such careless uses of the "ex" prefix. Ex-Marine, perish the thought!

They are former Piedmont birds. About 47 left to be replaced 1for1 with new 321s.

No offense intended. Does that mean you're former Piedmont? Heard it was, no slash that, I mean is a great airline. I've heard it compared to Alaska the same way I hear PSA compared to Southwest. US had lots of injections of good culture, where the h e double hockey sticks did it go? Bad management?

No offense taken. The Piedmont spirit lives in spite of managements best efforts!

darn, would have been a great birthday present to get a call from usair for an interview. I'm going to the open house on the 14th, I hope I get lucky.

Off the top of my head - the last bid (for March 2012) had open positions after the bid closed for:

PHL,CLT,DCA - Airbus and 737

PHL - E190

Two questions that have probably already been answered many times:

1. What is the seat lock timing? 3 years?

2. Does the E190 FO position pay the same as the A319/737 FO position for newhires?

Wow, I can't believe all of the ex-America West 737s are gone!!!! I remember seeing those airplanes while growing up on the Left Coast. Sad day............ :bawling::crying:

seat lock on the 190 is one year, all other planes is 18 months.

190 pays 41.22/hr, all other planes 3,000 per month

1. I don't know. If someone doesn't answer it here, I'll ask another employee.

2. I'm not on the east, but I believe APC is correct, it's $3000 a month for all three aircraft.

Yep, I started on the 737-200. Hard to believe all the 300s are now gone. In flight school my goal was to fly a 737 for a major. A pilot friend who retired flying captain for a major on an international route, said his best days were flying the 737, up and down the west coast. Or was it east coast? Oh well my memory must be going. We're now the world's largest Airbus operator, just took the 7000th airplane, an A321. The A321 are replacing the 737s one for one.

The seat lock can be released if the company needs the positions on other aircraft. I don't think you incur the seat lock if you're displaced off a piece of equipment either.
