Evergreen Hiring 60..

maybe.

If you only need 100 hours more to meet the mins, then fly a little extra until you get it. The minimum qualification is what you need to be considered. We have hired a lot of "laid off" pilots that exceed the mins easily.

So with that said, if you meet the mins but don't exceed them, then you need a letter of rec.

Good luck and hopefully I will see you on the line flying with us.

Wow, so 6 -400's??? And then the attrition to add to that? I'd say that it's a good time to get hired then... seniority will come fast. I would also expect by the time they vote on another TA there won't be but 50% of the pilot group eligible to vote!

corrected data...

I happen to run into someone from Flight Ops who has "the knowledge" and it is indeed still 4 additional -400's that are to be purchased. I've heard grumblings about a possible 5th airplane from another fleet but that is strictly rumour at this point. I was told that if the 4 come to fruition, we would need 80 more bodies and contract training is already in place. Then again, this is aviation so who knows.

4 confirmed with no.5 as an option... All from a certain Asian airline...

So they're "confirmed" as in.. the deal is inked.. funds wired, etc.. or confirmed as in... that's what we "hope" to get?

 

[propsarebest]

confirmed as in we are waiting for the final OK from the bankers. the price has been agreed upon, etc...

I guess voting down that POS TA didn't affect Del's ability to work a deal. I'm shocked! Now if we could just get released for self-help, you wouldn't have Captains flying 747s around the world for less than 100K a year. Truly pathetic.

confirmed as in we are waiting for the final OK from the bankers. the price has been agreed upon, etc...

So unfortunately the same thing that has kept us from getting all of the "other" 400's......the financing!


I am saying my prayers!
