They're all desperate right now. If you can fog a mirror, you've got the job.

So is that an exaggeration or the honest truth? Cause I've got about 400 hours but only 14 multi. Haven't flown in almost 2 years. I would love to be a pilot again, but I can't see going from my $35k/year dispatching job right now to making a wage that I'd have to move back in with my parents.
 
Pretty sure that's the truth. From what I understand ASA has had to cancel new-hire classes due to lack of students. I've also heard of new FO's who are coming on line with no actual IMC experience. I'd imagine they'll be wanting to keep that one on the down-low though to keep their insurance premiums down.

Are there any regional airlines that are hiring, who do not require a current flying job??

If you've got 1900TT, you're golden, as long as you're current. If you're not current, get current... then apply.
 
I don't think currency will hurt you getting hired at the regionals but you have to meet the mins. 14 multi won't cut it as far as I'm aware.
 
If Xjet would staff their own HR/Staffing dept. they might be able to get in touch with applicants faster and more efficient. It seems that they email 600tt pilots right away and leave anyone with over 1500TT hangin. Hope to hear from them soon! Then again, they certainly dont have any problems with keeping the new hire classes full.
 
I haven't flown in 5 years-put in resume anyway to ASA. Over 500 hours and 75 multi-. They called and said get current asap and resend lol
 
WHY DID I JUST GOGGLE FELCHING IM ILL!!!! Better yet how do you know what that is?!?!?!!?

me too! so which was it with him, the Va or the An?

Sad what this "profession" has cum too! :D
 
Are any Regionals hiring straight into the left seat? I'm a 7500 hr part 121 guy who may face a foulough by the end of the summer. I'll need a job for the 2 or 3 years it may take to get recalled and I hate to think about starting over again in the right seat if I can avoid it.
 
PSA Rumor

PSA rumor is there is a guy in training now that does not have a commercial. He has all the requirements met but does not have the ticket. Supposedly he is going to do his commercial ride at the same time as his SIC type ride.
 
Did you hear that from someone in the training department or from some guy in an alley selling reefer?
