Remembering a post from 3 months ago is funny for you? Is taking interest in your career and advancement make you an "APC lifer" (whatever that is)? If so call me an APC lifer then. Despite all the crap on these boards (your post being a perfect example) there is a lot of good information posted which has helped me out since I was a naive student pilot.

Did you ever consider the fact that he might be messing with you?
Here are some other rumors over the past several weeks.
- Big layoffs at HQs. Mostly out of recruiting and HR.
- Buying a whole bunch of CRJs as another regional is going out of business..
As far as not hiring Legacy pilots.. that certainly wasn't the case the last time around. New hire average flight times went way up. Plenty of turbine time and type ratings in the new hire classes. I was flying with a lot of pilots that had a lot more PIC turbine time than I did.

Does the Jets for Jobs agreement we had with United in 2008ish still stand? While I feel for the young guys who were denied their inclusion into the 121 world through no fault of their own, I'd gladly fly with guys who have moved on, but through no fault of their own no longer have a job.
Does hiring a Jets for Jobs guy temporarily count as hiring a legacy guy?
Would a legacy guy want to come fly for a lowly regional again?

My understanding is United’s scope clause requires any 70+ seat operator for UAX to hire a certain number of united pilots (based on number of 70+ seat jets) if that regional is hiring
I think Jets for jobs was a specific post 9/11 program. UAX scope clause is a different thing

no ratio at all - SKYW would need to offer a job to every single furloughed UA pilot who wants one before hiring of the street.
