lets see...
727, that one made me laugh out loud! Seriously, that wasvery clever and funny. lots of DCA guys there lately. DCA did get me the interview sooner though. I had my application in for a couple months and only when the school re-sent it did i get a call. I would say this was coincidence, but I know five or six other guys that had it happen the same way. I would have gotten one eventually, but they definitely sped up the process.
As to the 69 airplanes, I have heard from numerous sources, including one of the guys that interviewed me, that the 69 planes aren't going away. No guarantees in this industry, but I am not worried.
Times were 1000TT/300Multi, but there were guys there with considerably less...
thanks for all of the good thoughts, I will keep you all informed.
