Not to air out our dirty laundry but that guy is missing a few screws.

Tells me he's a captain as he's sitting in the crew room in an FO's uniform, heard he's been known to tell other people he's an undercover agent for the FBI.




If the senior pilots were holding out for the January class date (to avoid training over the holidays), then I would think on the next award it should go even more junior.

You've got to look at the master bid sheet and see how many of those senior PHX FOs, and displaced CLT FOs have changed their bid to IAH E75 CA.

I wouldn't be surprised if the Feb award goes senior again before it gets back into 2013 hires.

This also depends on whether they finally run some upgrades on the CRJ. On the last bid, EJet would've gone about 5-6 spots further down the list if there had been IAD/DFW/PHX CRJ upgrades.

They can call you whenever. You do not have to answer on FDP. Unless you want to.

FDP is regular reserve. Telling new hires this is a good way to get them a visit to the CP office.

Sent my app to Mesa on airline apps about a week ago, still no response. How long should it take to hear back from them?
Thanks!!

They'll call you with a job offer within 1-3 weeks.

If you are a reserve pilot, yes, it is reserve. FDP means you have a 90 minute callout. As a line holder, things are different and it is a placeholder.

Make sure when you comment you speak as a reserve pilot or line holder. It makes a difference with FDP and what it means.

If you have questions about this please contact the CP or the Union for further clarification. Thanks.

As a line holder you never have to answer your phone. FDP or not.
