Got to help a few husband/wife teams as well.



I like seeing an airline become a family business...

Can anybody shed some light on the preferred time frame for updating your application flight times before the interview? The day before? Two days before? A week before? Is it even necessary?

I updated mine the week before when I finished my last pairing. I wanted the logbook to match. However, there was no "official" guidance I received. There was also not any questions regarding my logbooks or mil records.

Absolutely one of the nicest guys you could talk to. Even when you bring up getting his son in.

Once I had him on my jump seat during an extended ice storm delay.

We passed the time by letting him try to explain the rules of cricket to us.

I still don't understand cricket, but our man from India is a great guy, and I am sure his son will be as well.

Would anyone care to guess the % of applicants that are at majors currently, DAL/UAL/AA/SWA? And would the FedEx recruiters view an individual at one of these carriers differently than say a regional jet captain?
