After passing a rigorous selection process* including 73.7800 hours of training, polygraph interviews, airframe and powerplant exams, a 737-meters-long obstacle course in the dark (which includes a long-jump over one of our many broken 727's (that one's for you Drew!)), a trip to Krispy Kreme 7.37 miles away for the 737 staff (and they got the order right), a demonstrated ability to wash and wax a 737-900 in 737.9 seconds or less, passing a hair-curling check ride from LAX-LAS, and beating out 737,800 other candidates, I am proud to announce the addition of two new 737 pilots to our roster: Doyle Edwards and Steve Archibald. Congratulations, gents!
After a 737-hour probationary period**, Doyle and Steve will begin flying right seat as proud members of DVA's finest pilot program.
Again, congratulations Doyle and Steve, and the 737 staff and I wish you many hours of enjoyment with everyone's favorite airplane. Thanks for the donuts***.
Disclaimers:
*The selection process isn't really that rigorous and only actually involves a checkride and first officer examination. No 737 candidates were harmed during the process.
**There isn't really a probationary period either.
***Sadly, we didn't really get donuts.
