reserve time?

[Tetauy]

Are you guessing that reserve time will be between 0-3 months for the CRJ or the E120? Do you think they have openings left for the November classes?

WHO?????????

???

If you're asking about Comair, only fly CRJ, reserve currently less than 1 year.

 

[Tetauy]

Sorry guys. I am an idiot. I just thought I knew how to use this box on top of my desk. I was referring to SkyWest but would be interested in any company and their reserve period. Take care.

I've heard that the Nov classes are already filled. Looks like you'll be shootin' for a Dec or Jan class (if you're in the interview pool).

 

[Andy Neill]

There ar a few Nov jet class slots open as of this morning.

I think reserve periods will be comparatively short for either aircraft but moreso for the Brasilia. It will be interesting to see who is bidding for the newly announced jet domiciles at PSP, SBA, and DEN. That could have some effect on reserve times for jet newhires from one domicile to another.

Andy,

I have an interview on Nov. 6 and was wondering what you thought my chances would be of getting a November slot if I am fotunate enough to get selected into the SkyWest family? I am currently a Part 135 single pilot type with over 1500 total and over 500 multi and 4.5 turbine. What about December if not November and is there any hope of getting the CRJ without any significant turbine time? Thanks.

 

[Andy Neill]

Most of those getting jets slots have significant turbine time (greater than 100 hours) but there are exceptions from time to time.

As I understand it, the November Brasilia slots are full so there would be a possibility of getting into the January Brasilia class.

Andy,

I was under the impression that there were Dec Brasilia classes. Have they been cancelled, or was I mistaken.

ROFLOL!

SIGNIFICANT JET TIME = 100 HOURS!

 

[Andy Neill]

I consider the day well spent when I can bring some sunshine into your life.

Andy~

I have an upcoming interview in about a week and a half. Just wondering...If I make the grade with Skywest can I expect a Dec. groundschool or are they all filled up through the rest of the year?

Hope to see you in groundschool soon!!!

[Andy Neill]

If you knock their socks off in the interview, you MIGHT get a Nov 20th jet class or a December jet class. Otherwise, you would be looking at a January Brasilia class.

Andy~

Thanks for the info....I'll give it 110%!!!

Eagle

If you want to fly the Embraer Jet at American Eagle. Reserve is up to about 3 years seniority in ORD and BOS which are the most junior bases. For LAX, DFW, or LGA expect a little bit longer. If you want to be a captain...ever...don't come to Eagle.

You said it brother! I'm with you 100%. 4 years 4 months and number 40 out of 130 in DFW. Two centuries from EMB CA. "Did you say you were ready for the before start checklist?"
