We have 7 guys on the list between 2004 and 2007. Out of the 420 on our list 270 were 07 hires or after. We're flowing around number 80 on the list. Good days!

If I was getting in the bizzz right now. Envoy and Piedmont would be the best choice. Hands down!!!! Delta and United will need to come up with this program for sure.

I'm considering applying to PDT and have a few questions. Are PHL lines commutable? Is there a commuter clause? If so how does it work? I live near an airport with 4 direct flights per day to PHL and wondering if commuting to PHL is a viable option. Is PHL junior or senior?

Yes we have commuter clause and the company pays for a few hotels for you.

Piedmont Train is going!! Get in now and you won't be junior long at all.

Good Luck with whatever regional you chose!!

It sure is! I believe if we can maintain 475 pilots, we will be adding a 4th flow spot per month/48 pilots per year. Shouldn't be too hard a feat, looking at recent class sizes.
