FWIW I was placed into a 9L class with 900/700 (about 500 turbine) So the mins. can be relaxed a little but I believe the 100 ME is the one they will not budge on. I was hired on the XJ side but was approved to be placed into a 9L class. I am sure I'll get the 50 hours of OE but it does sound as if there is wiggle room on a per candidate basis (at least what I was told by XJ HR, had to be approved by VP of Ops at 9L).

Also, does anyone know the move date for 11-09 yet?
