Regarding CVG vs. JFK...
Last few CA's I've flown with have agreed with me that we prefer flying out of JFK than CVG. Don't know what it is...... I'm CVG based now for reasons outside of work, but loved JFK!

I dunno, most CAs I fly with hate going to JFK, including myself. The whole operation up there is just embarrassing, and who ever thought of sticking the Delta Connection gates between those 2 alleys is a moron.

At least the CVG crew room doesn't have any pets.

At least the JFK crew room isn't a temporary structure.

Anyone else get this e-mail from ALPA
"Your MEC Scheduling Committee would like to alert all Comair pilots to management actions that will likely disrupt ALPA’s ability to review the line bidding and award process."


Doesn't surprise me anymore why people are leaving this place left and right....
Less than published? How low you talkin? I've got 402 tt 125 multi, 75 of that heavy turbo prop, part 135. Do you need to know someone to get in??

I think those with less than published come from a CRJ course where they plunk down a few thousand and buy themselves the training they would get at any airline course for free if they had a few more hours.

Put in your stuff! It can't hurt. I know for a fact several people have been hired on with less than 100 Multi! Not sure about Total Time, but I wouldn't be surprised if people have been hired with less than 600 TT. I guess we need pilots! They are having a hard time filling classes. I'm not surprised.

I got hired 6 months ago with just under 600tt but over 100 multi. I know people that had around 50 multi.

I loved flying out of JFK but being based there was horrible. I don't miss the 30 minute bus rides when everybody stares at you.

There is your answer On Autopilot! Since you have over 100 multi you should be able to get an interview, especially right now with the staffing issues.
