1. Sign a 2 year contract
2. Satisfactorily complete ATP’s RJ standardization course (paid for by Eagle)
IIRC, thats a 7-8 grand program right? We have reached the days of 500 hour pilots being hired AND additional training for a job? Things keep up with this, eventually it will be 0/0 hiring. IE they pay for all training.
We might have to retire the APC chant of "The days of 500 hour hiring are long gone"
