American Eagle Mins Reduced?
Just wanted to know if AE has reduced their minimums to the general flying guys from their website posting of 1000/100 to lower total time?
I saw this post under a "College Career Fair" they are attending on Oct 3, 2007
To meet the qualifications under the current agreement between AE and FIT, interested pilots must have 400 hours total time, 100 hours multi time, Bachelor of Aeronautical Science, Aviation Management or Aviation Meteorology with Flight Option, 3.0 GPA, and a letter of Recommendation from Dean of College of Aeronautics.
http://www.fit.edu/career/2007CareerFair.html
So if they are "this low" for the school, have they come down for the "general public's applications"? I was on a layover in MIA on the 13th, one of the AA pilots told me he was in DFW for training, ran into the Eagle class of 25 new hires, and on day two, only 8 showed back up. He said AE is "dying for F/O's" right now....
I use to work for them, as a F/A back in '96-'97. I should be done with all my ratings/time by Christmas.....I thinking of re-applying as a pilot with around 500/225....just wondering if it's worth a shot....
Any input from current AE guys would be great.....

I'm not an AE guy, but one would guess that if you were a former employee and left on good terms, it may definitely be worth a shot. what do you have to lose?

I left due to my "furlough notice" ref an upcoming planed AA Pilot Strike (which never occurred)....So I went ahead and gave my 2-weeks notice, left, and went to work for UAL. So in fact I did leave on good terms, and I do have a 4-yr degree.....I think I might goto their career fair in Oct, since it's like a 20min drive, and talk with the recruiter and see what they say.
