I'm sorry you werent interviewed because of this. However, it's more your own fault. 6 approaches and a missed isn't hard to do in within a six month time. You could have stayed current by utilizing a sim. The recruitment team may have thought since you were out of currency you may not have passed the sim portion of the interview.

New (to us) aircraft. Increased flying for AAG. The 4 USAir 900's are replacing 4 200's currently in service, which were intended to be used as spares at the time of the announcement.

No, they don't care about "ME currency", other than an applicant who is current in larger/turbine/135/121 aircraft would be at a competitive advantage over a piston ASEL pilot.

I second that. Air Mekong planes without a home, so we volunteered them to Airways as straight replacements for the 200.

Also, Alaska has a LAX domicile/hub right? Any chance these new plane would go there instead if growing NW?

I took the comment about the 900 flying for US to mean previously announced growth. Supposed to be based in PHX but flow through CLT a lot. It's typical SW style... flow through a hub. No need for a base until there is enough flying to support it. About 100 departures from CLT next month is what I heard..(from a hotel van driver)

Look dude, I've already backed off a lot of what I said based on several thoughtful responses.
Your attention to detail is dismal. The last time I checked, the Skywest page DID NOT HAVE OPENINGS FOR FOs. What is so hard to understand about that? That IS A FACT. I'm not saying Skywest will never hire again, I've simply spoke to the fact that they are not hiring right now. Perhaps they are gearing to hire, I don't care. I didn't post a lie.....I wasn't corrected. You've even noted yourself that poolies will come first.
Can you or do you read?

It looks more like your comprehension skills are in question. As I said earlier, I truly hope for your sake you're not as you seem.
Good luck.

For those who say that SkyWest isn't hiring, I can assure you they are. 100%. This comes from someone who isn't inside the company at all. I was contacted yesterday about selecting a date to interview in June (several dates were available). I deferred to July for a scheduling conflict at my current employer.
Again, I'm not saying this based off rumor or hearsay. I also was not internally recommended or anything. Hopefully this helps confirm the fact that they are indeed hiring off the street folks.

Was called yesterday by Kristin to set up an interview. Those who are in limbo and have not been contacted, make sure your airline apps profile is up to date!
