Anybody knows anything about that?

Some guy at aviationinterviews said it would be an airbus device. Anyways what's with the spirit minimums 2K and 250 multi not even an ATP is required are they having trouble finding pilots?

2000 hours is more than that required by Delta and Northwest.

What times are people actually getting hired with at Spirit?

From what I've heard, and I'm sure some Spirit guys in the know will chime in, it sounds like glass experience is what they're really looking for these days, and flight times vary.

Like no PIC time required?

I think 1000 Turbine PIC is still a hard min from what I've read.

Where's Shrek when you need him?! He seems to know what's going on over there.

I know 1k used to be a "hard" min, but that has changed. I don't think it is a hard min anymore. There are people who have gotten interviewed with less and without any internal rec.
