if your not academy, you probably won't get a call but who knows. Their time requirements are 600/100 so you have nothing to lose.

Got a call from ExpressJet 2 days after i turned in my stuff, my friend got a call the same day. We both went through the 121/furloughed link.

Any idea if the interview is any differnt if you current 121?

Upgrade is currently six years, with reserve anywhere from 6mos. to over 2 years depending on which aircraft. More rumors about an LA 400 base, and we are planning on hiring 15 pilots a bid through may. If that all is true then all those numbers will come down drastically.

We are no longer hiring pilots and have no idea when hiring will resume. Fifteen airplanes have been removed from revenue service and we don't know when they will be returned, if at all.

Come apply to Eagle. Guranteed a prop, reserve for two years minimum and a quick upgrade in 7-10 years.

Did the online application for xjet two weeks ago, no call yet. Did the same with Skywest and had an interview date within 3 hours.

Does Skywest still make you do that stupid mechanical aptitude test and the interview.

 

[Flyingdutchman]

Yes..
