How many in the 19th class? How many guys are you losing a month?

 

[MNMoose]

Acc

I know about the one this month, just wondering if anyone knows anything about any classes after that. Someone I know is in the pool and waiting. Thanks

For all the ACC pilots, are most of you guys doing the 19 on 9 days off thing? Where are you living or based? How does commuting work out?

 

[texarkana]

Out of our ~100 pilots, roughly 20 of them are on the charter schedule, and they live all over the country. Most flying is done from YIP and DTO. Commuting seems to be a necessary evil.

 

[mcjohn]

Thanks. How about the other 80 pilots? Are they based all over or are there just a few cities?

Hey, what are their mins now? Whats going on with the Fresno base, is it still there?

 

[mcjohn]

ACC's published mins are quite high. I think I saw 1500/200 or something like that for FO. In reality they do not go by them though. I was interviewed at 500tt and 12 multi. I have also heard that they prefrer the low low timers for longevity and that some folks with high time have had a hard time getting called. I don't work there. I could be wrong.

Published mins changed a few months back, currently 500/50 for FO, i believe it says 1000/100 to be competative, but like you said they do hire guys in the 500 range
