Default Pilots Wanted

Was just reading the January 2008 edition of Air Transport World, and saw an ad from USAir looking for pilots. Wow! When was the last time a major airline had to advertise to fill pilot positions?

About 2 weeks ago.

United has been running ads as well as Delta, Northwest (and I think CAL). The only one NOT at the party is AA.

Maybe it has to do with the whole rift between the East and West pilot groups?

What's funny is that ATW is sent to airline MANAGERS! How many airline managers want to fly the line or have the qualifications to do so?
