US Airways Calls

[Snaab]

So having 3 applications "under review" right now is desirable?

 

[greyskyracer]

How long does the yes/no take?

 

[Hpilot]

Yet the Phoenix training center sits idle.

Not that I'm aware of. Several new hire classes have started their indoc training there. Recurrent training as usual. Things are plobably slower now than they were a while ago, because all of the 737 pilots have transitioned over to the new A321s. Parker has already addressed the fact that all training centers are going to be needed for the upcoming retirements and new aircraft. The PHX facililtiy while relatively small is very nice. In the late 90's I visited the AA training center in Fort Worth, very impressive. I've never been to the CLT training center, but have heard it is nice.

 

[linecheck]

Anyone out there in one of the July classes get their paperwork yet?

 

[cbrown1]

can anyone confirm a class started today?

 

[linecheck]

I heard there's a June 17th and a July 1st class. Beyond that, not sure.

It's like having more tickets in the pot for a raffle drawing is my understanding.

Good news: CLT training center is nice.

Bad news: You are in CLT and certain company hotels do not have a gym.

 

[zasca]

That's too bad. The normal hotels must be full.

 

[Flybywire44]

I've know one guy that waited 3, another 4, several waited 5 weeks and another waited 7.

If after your interview US Airways says "don't call us, we'll call you" than follow their instruction.

Good luck.

 

[pilotnbr1]

Anyone know if May interviews have received the yes/no yet? And around what date they interview. thx

 

[linecheck]

Anybody out there get told about a July class yet?

 

[sbnflyer]

Just curious what the average age of people being hired has been. Anyone know someone under age 30?

 

[Tweaker]

Kid in my class hired at age 22. No Part 121 PIC. 2200 TT.

Helps that his granddad hired two middle management morans?

 

[Tweaker]

Any idea what the short call out time will be.

"A reasonable time by ground transportation."

Pretty gentlemanly way to work it, ain't it?

It translates to 2:30 minutes.

I was told there is a july 1 class.

 

[dollacrackho]

Don't you have to be 23? Is that still a requirement for an ATP? Don't you have to have an ATP to hold a type rating?

I think he's just trying to get people upset. From looking at aviationinterviews everyone hired on there has been over thirty. Just looking to see if anyone has gotten through that wasn't.

Or 3-4 hours.
