What is UAL Thinking? Ted Going to MDW!

Those are the hiring minimums, sorry they are so high. What was it at United again? 400 hours and a commercial license.

For a while by court order it was. Sure your hiring minimums are high, for the pocketbook especially. Just pay up and they could care less how much 737 time (none for most) you've got. If you don't get the job, well then you have a worthless piece of paper to remember it all by.

Are you a former ACA guy? Good thing UAL was solvent long enough to float that operation so you could come up with your 1000 PIC turbine over there. Glad we could help you out.

Yea thanks! After witnessing the clusterf*ck that was United first hand, I never sent them an application. So I guess by United being United, they did help me out.

hey swa/fo......do your 737's still run on 87 octane......or did you guys stop parking at the bp at the end of all the runways......maybe thats where the cheap gas is coming from

 

[SWA/FO]

Don't think it was a BP, a$$hole. It was a cheveron. They run on 93 octane. I guess, you made your 4th post count, huh.uke:

Nostradamus? Maybe, but any chance he might have read this article instead of his tea leaves?

Southwest Airlines expanding to Denver
Friday, October 21, 2005; Posted: 9:42 a.m. EDT (13:42 GMT)

DENVER, Colorado (AP) -- Southwest Airlines Co. will resume service in Denver next year after a 20-year absence, likely triggering lower fares yet posing fresh problems for airlines already struggling with higher fuel prices.

Although Southwest has shunned Denver International Airport for more than a decade because of its high costs, the Dallas-based carrier -- in the midst of an expansion -- reconsidered because those costs have declined.
It will compete head-to-head against United Airlines as it emerges from bankruptcy and Denver-based Frontier Airlines Inc., which together have about 75 percent of DIA's market.

here's the link to the whole thing if you want it.
