AC Interview Prep Course

Post by 1900guy »

Just wondering what the results would look like. Is it worth it for the confidence factor alone?

I want to die like my grandfather did, peacefully in his sleep. Not screaming in terror like his passengers...

I can't speak for everybody but, I have had my app. walked in since 2005 by
three different sources at different times, a 777 captain (with over 30 years in), an Air Canada instructor and finally by a pilot that was still on probation.

Despite seeing many posts by different people on the forum with about the same experience as I had, I have to tell you that it was only in April of 2007 that I got the email did the interview and am now at AC. I can't think of any better range of endorsements, so why did it take so long? I don't know about your situation but I must say that the influence of my different supporters doesn't seem to have had much/any effect. I think that it is just a question of time. So lay off the "Daddy got me my job" because I don't think that AC really gives a #!@#!@#.

I meant the daddy remark as a joke. There have been many discussions here about having "daddy get you the job". By no means did I actually mean it.
