a true pdt guy could answer this better than this quasi-pdt guy,

but my understanding was that previously, they were hiring at 500/50 mins from mostly UND but i believe also ERAU and similar 'institutions'

don't know if thats still the case

During my annual inquisition (recurrent training) last month it was reported by the instructor that PDT is planning to hire 200-250 pilots in the next year. Many of the recent new hires have been very inexperienced pilots in the 500/50 range. I was recently flying with a new F/O and he happily stated that on that day he actually passed 700 hours of total time.

I believe to get the chance to interview at that experience level one has to be a graduate of UND, Perdue, or Southern Illinois University.

A couple of things to consider, is PDT a great place to work, not any more. However if you wish to get a great deal of flying experience in a short amount of time this is a place where it will happen. Unfortunately our future is tied directly to USAirways which is very uncertain at the present. We may all be looking for other employment very soon.

HEY! i was one of those! (well, 500/80 at graduation )
but I certainly never thought i was the best in the world, but maybe thats cause i came outta erau-AZ not DAB, so maybe i'm a little more grounded in reality, than most of those rich/frat boys.....
