Initial seniority
Probably not going to happen but they need to change the class seniority to social sec number instead of age like at some other places so it's more fair for everyone because it's random. Why do you have to be 40 and above or a certain age to get what you want? Because you have less useful time left in aviation? When your on the line you go by seniority not age.
Maybe they should assign initial seniority by score on the ATP written.
And, any way you get you initial seniority, everything IS still by seniority.

...if you guys/gals cannot pass a checking event with nettles without using a gouge, you don't deserve to be on the line!
he is the most straight forward check airman on property, he's not there to trick you in anyway! he may not ask questions verbatim off a list of questions but more of a scenario base.
memory item, limitations, if you screw up - correct it immediately and move on! your goal is to keep the sim flying!

I was 25 and single when I got hired a year ago. Happened to be in one of the jackpot class where we got choice of base and equipment, and I happened to get DFW which is what I wanted even though I still had to move to Texas, but I would have moved to Chicago if I had to and if I had to move to New York if I got hired now I would. Why not? If you are young and single with nothing to tie you down and you still choose to commute, you are retarded.

So why is assigning initial seniority by last four of your social or alphabetically "more fair" than by age? I'm sure if your name begins with a "Z" or you last four is 9999 you wouldn't think so!

Are you seriously asking that question? Is it not obvious? Older guys are more likely to have a wife, kids, mortgage, old parents that require care, etc. along with just generally more **** to tie him down. As a general rule, a married 45 year old with three kids and a mortgage cannot pack up and move as easily as a single 25 year old flight instructor with $19.99 to his name.

You're obviously very young to be asking such questions. And your lack of life experience is displaying just why seniority by age in class is fine. Just saying.

My other airline was fair and random. No older guys monopolizing the slots. Again 25 year olds can have 2 kids and a wife too. I don't think age should matter anyways, it should be fair, but for arguments sake.
