Way to many topics within in one thread.

So what I got so far from the past 2 pages is that a 15 year old (whose legality is in question) chick received a letter via a PA that she might not be hired until her dad takes the early out offered

is that right?

Yeah, they don't know what they're doing THIS December, let alone next December, or the December after that.....


Oh, and don't we finally catch up to age 65 in January 2013? This letter is BS.

Default Dude, 80 scooped Stephanopolis

FOR THE RECORD: "I was wrong".

Since I live in a cave, everyone but me has probably already seen this:

SEALs Used Secret Stealth Helicopter

This helo would be an H-60 about as much as an f-117 would be an A-7.

"We remain active in pilot recruitment, and our hiring group is continuing its review of applications submitted through airlineapps.com. While we don’t anticipate hiring in the near term, we remain prepared to re-open the hiring pipeline should passenger demand increase and block hours go up."
- Steve Dixon

"Near term" is intentionally vague, but I would hope that means this summer, leaving open the likelihood for fall hiring if the economy improves over the summer.

No Pre-takeoff.

Was pretty sure I had made excess room for poor interpretation there.

I know this rumor comes and goes on here and it's usually debunked, but I've heard recently from some mid level tech ops guys that delta and southwest are engaged in serious talks about a deal involving us getting their 717's for some of our B737's and some gate swaps in atl. Again, just rumor but this seemed interesting.

Yeah, the 717 rumor does come and go - I just don't see SWA looking to hand over those to their big competitor in ATL. And I'm sure SWA can get 737s from Boeing at the drop of a hat - no need to swap. Gate swaps too? Whoever is giving up gates in ATL is being dumb - even our mgmt would realize that.
