Any guess as to how many thousands of apps will be on file?

Er...Yeah. I think you're good. It's like a hot chick asking an ugly one if she looks fat in this dress.

Don't be. I too haven't been able to get a call from anyone. However, I've not attended a job fair.

9,000 TT
5 types
6,000 TPIC
4 year degree
35 excellent health (Former athlete)

Most of my recent experience has been part 91 GV time. Perhaps, this is what's holding me back?

Btw, please tell me you guys are joking about the call sign. I can't imagine a CA briefing going something like: "Hi. I'm Bob, but please refer to me as 'Shooter' both in and outside of the cockpit."
Small number of guys. More prevalent in PHX (Luke AFB). Unfortunately they make all Air Force pilots look bad. I never want to fly fighters. I just wanted to fly rubber dog **** out of Hong Kong and be an airline pilot.

I'd think long and hard about leaving a GV Cptn job for SWA. It's DRASTICALLY different flying. Of course, you might be gone a lot though.

In the long run it's well worth it -for me at least. The pros out weigh the cons.
