UND and several regionals has an agreement that states that UND will give innitial CRJ knwoledge and familarisation to its students and in return the Regionals will give some of the students an interview. If any regional takes a pilot with 250 hours is under such special sircumstances. No pilot with 250 hours from the street without any knowledge in CRJ can expect to get an interview with the regionals, not yet that is.......
So if you ask how Pinnacle can be so great if it takes students from UND then the answer is " as great as all other companies doing the same"
Stop putting Pinnacle down
Pinnacle is the only ones taking UND guy with that low an hours. Horizon wouldnt interview here with less than 750. and by the way I know a guy with no CRJ training got hired by 9E with 400. Dont believe me though, I know nothing about UND I only worked there, and he was my student.
