What about guys with 0 TPIC who've been throwing gear on a widebody for 4 or so years? Any calls for them?![]()
They should certainly be called!

I should have gone to College.
I received an email when I was within 30 days of my subscription expiring. It's supposed to be an annual fee.So @Derg, since I can't seem to find it on that airline application website - can you check with your source and tell me why my account deactivated after XX number of months and how often I must pay the $59.99 to keep it active?
Thanks...went to go update all my apps yesterday and the capitalist driven one told me my account is inactive. Had to have happened within past 30 days and I didn't know it.

mil guy waiting for a call.....also waiting for a regional FO class date.Don't worry about who is getting called, what qualifications they had, or who wrote them a letter. If you can apply with the minimum qualifications do so and update frequently. You have to believe 100% that they WILL interview you. Make ACTIVELY applying to airlines you want to work for a part time job. Leave the complaining, bitterness, and excuses to the regional captains sitting at the top of their seniority lists (easy! not all of them are that way but more than a few are).
Note to RJ FO's out there....the hiring environment is likely to change again, almost overnight, sometime soon IMHO. The pool of connected pilots, qualified RJ captains, and interested military pilots is shallow and getting shallower by the day. Purely my uninformed opinion but at some point the airlines will find regional FO's that are hard working, possess positive attitudes, and a hunger to work for XYZ major as more attractive candidate than the RJ captains who half assed their applications and have been noticeably absent during past hiring cycles. HR can easily look at when you first applied, your update history, your career migration patterns, etc and make a reasoned judgement about your motivation as an employee. Did you apply the moment the window opened or the moment you met the qualifications? Did you upgrade at the first possible opportunity or stay a sr FO for a few years? Did you do any work within the airline beyond just being a line pilot? The candidates who have their apps in the system will get a shot those who wait for the tide to turn will be left chasing it.

i'm a pretty low time guy that got lucky enough to get out early...so i was expecting a wait, I'm only 2100 TT with 860 TPIC. The regionals on the other hand called right away...every one I applied to but AWAC anyways....just hoping it's within a year or so.Imperfect system to say the least but I I firmly believe good qualified people like yourself will get your shot. This is just the tip of the iceberg. Hang in there. Next thing you know you'll have multiple interviews and scheduling conflicts. Just the way it works.

Instructor in the C5 and aircraft commander in the MC-12....going back to the C5 in the reserves.What did you fly while you were in the military?

Really depends. The commitment is wings + 10 years but I shaved about half of that off being lucky with timing and applying for voluntary separation with the force management issues we are having right now.I'm curious, for a pilot what's the shortest time/commitment you can do in the military and get out? Say you graduate from a university/ROTC and join as an officer at age 22. What's the timeframe look like?

other mil people will chime in but timing is everything...what's possible today might not be tomorrow....not saying no, but not saying yes either if that makes sense.That's what I mean, so theoretically it is possible to get out in 5?
is my sarcasm detecter off?Not sure why an AD Air Force pilot WOULDN'T stay in.
No sarcasm at all!
Haven't you left once or twice yourself?
Not the Air Force!
