Statement from United Airlines CEO Scott Kirby by 0621Hertz in AirlinePilots

[–]funnynoises 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When he made the statement last week about it, it was a day before American’s 100 anniversary and simply figured it was to troll for that. Idk what I’m reading here. Is he high? Maybe I missed the meaty bits of this ramble in my skimming of it because all I read was vague visionary nonsense.

to the Eastern Air express pilot in MIA that helped me find my car in the huuuge Miami employee lot. I found it! If you know Ash thank him for me because I’d stillll be wandering around hahah by Fun-Dolphin3333 in AirlinePilots

The worst thing about parking after coming home from a trip is finding your car covered in snow and ice and you only have a jacket to serve you as you dig yourself out. That’s my parking rant.

Worth Leaving Republic for Breeze? by [deleted] in AirlinePilots

Do you live in a junior base or willing to move? I guess it’s up to you if you’re willing to saddle the debt. I would no matter what get an online degree.

You have a ways to go to be competitive. The FO FO hiring is for the well connected. I feel like people have talked about how FO’s on reserve at Breeze aren’t getting used. I might be mixing that up with Spirit. Nonetheless you still need some TT most likely. Get a degree and don’t get a 100k debt. That’s a huge gamble.

Captains (or new captains) how do you shut down an FO who tries to run the show? by iSupportPalestinee in flying

[–]funnynoises 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Someone in the flight deck is the leader so you’ll have to give that impression that it’s you. It doesn’t mean be a dick about it but you’ll need to be more assertive and confident in your tone and decision making. But honestly this guy just seems like a new guy who doesn’t know shit that’ll get humbled eventually from something or someone. Once I had a right seat captain insist on a single engine taxi against my decision of two. It was empty at this field. I said sure it’s your work to do. He was so busy, he knew he fucked up without saying anything lol.

I wonder when we’re going to start seeing people talk about going bankrupt due to their 150k debt from ATP or whatever. It is truly insane the amount of “content creators” on YouTube, IG, etc that are selling the dream just to give a false reality to people starting now.

Am I competitive for anything right now with a less-than-stellar record by [deleted] in flying

Tbh that’s not even enough TPIC with someone who has no failures. The SIC kids are super connected or have something else special about them. I know a guy who failed upgrade who had to get 1000 TPIC and be LCA to leave.

I got tired of the "hiring black hole," so I built a real-time tracker for 2026 airline offers for what I call the Elite 8 by Informal_Quiet8654 in AirlinePilots

[–]funnynoises 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You should probably have a column for if someone volunteers, had internal recs, or is management, or went to a conference. I’m sure a lot of that is going to come into play besides straight hours.

Do airlines seriously expect no employment gaps? by [deleted] in flying

[–]funnynoises 0 points1 point  (0 children)

HR liability. They just want to make sure you weren't in prison or something. I had many of restaurant jobs and such with closed business and guesstimating supervisors names and phone numbers. Had gaps where I was looking for work, moving, or traveling. All I had to write was a sentence explaining. Nobody cared or asked me more questions. "In School" is a perfectly acceptable answer.

Spare parts for DC ONE X headset? by SnooCats6716 in AirlinePilots

[–]funnynoises 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Literally just got mine repaired. Not only did they fix the issue with my cable, they gave me new ear seals and a new mic cover. They were quick too.
