Yes if you can hold day trips or if you are on reserve and you get a turn assigned to you that day.

Pretty confident that our class average was less than or close to 5,000 hours. Definitely worth applying.

It all depends where you bid. Day turns and 20 days off for the most senior. 4-5 day trips and 12 off for the most junior.

Some cities get up to three round trips per day. Leave on day one from MSP. Day four return to MSP. There really is no standard 4 day.

With the projected hiring this year, what is going to be the competitive minimums? With so many options I'm trying to figure out who is coming here.

Yes. Hiring for the remainder of the year. 8 total classes. 56 new hires. I think they have hired about 24 so far. I think they are conducting interviews monthly.
