Funny back in 1996 as 10,000 hr pilot, with 9000 MEL, I applied at Eagle and was turned down because I did not have 500 hours in the last year. I only had 375 MEL turbin. Now all you need is 500TT. My how times change.

Just need a body...no experience necessary.

This is getting scary. I am flying with guys and gals now that are just totally handicapped. The worst part is that they don't even know it. They're just there to look cool. It is going downhill fast, folks.

Look, all they have to do is read the checklist, and pick their nose. Breathing and a pulse.

If you started at a regional in the last few years please read this aloud.

I don't know why regionals even have minimums posted anymore because as long as you have a commercial/multi and average interviewing skills, you will probably get the job since the industry at the regional level is so short of pilots. My prediction is within the next 2-3 years almost every regional will have a several thousand dollar signing bonus or some sort of re-embursement of training.

They turned me down I have 2400 TT 260 ME ATP CFI-I MEI previous 135 experience, because I had not flown enough recently.

 

[Oakum_Boy]

That's what you get when you let the women HR feminazi types with the hyphenated names hire pilots.

 

[Jedi_Cheese]

Anyone know if they will waive the multi time if you have 2-3x the minimum TT they want?

God help us.

Back in 2004 when I went in for my interview with 1600tt, 200 multi CFII, they wouldn't hire me because I hadn't studied the gouge and filled my brain with what the 121 alternate minimums were at the time..... Thankfully for that, I was given the opportunity to go find my dignity flying for Uncle Sam.....
American Eagle can ki$$ my a$$

I find it always best to study for interviews.

Priceless!

YGBFKM...He had 1600/200 and is a multi CFII. He didn't have to study for no stinkin' interview.

 

[labbats]

Time needed to fly my cancelled check - 1200hrs

Time needed to fly my family a thousand miles - 400hrs

Time needed to wake up the FAA - forever



So now captains are flying more hours, more legs and basically single pilot. Brilliant.

TRANSLATION: "I didn't prepare for the interview and could not get through one of the easiest hiring processes in the business. I sat there and watched everyone else from my interview group, some with much less experience than I, pass through all four phases with no problem. But me, a tough guy with 1600 whopping hours... well, I just couldn't cut it and they sent me home with my tail between my legs.

Now, instead of realizing that it was MY fault for not preparing for the interview and a simple fifty-question written test, I'll just blame the process and ridicule the comany. After all, nothing is ever my fault."
