here is the scoop guys and gals....

if you have A320 time...that is good to go...

alot of folks claim to have the type when it is actually a SIC type...don't try to BS anyone with this line....

the total time is important....if you have over 6K, A320 type, good PIC time....then you are a good candidate....

much more is required however than just the appropriate time...

there is a pre screening process which is completed on line...this link will be sent to you if you are being considered.....

I would ecourage anyone to re-apply or update your on line app because the hiring criteria is changing constantly...so just because you may have not been contacted initially does not mean that you could not be a near future candidate.

The initial bunch HAD to have alot of A320 PIC time and total time to qualify for initial start up. Most of this was to satisty the FAA requirments. That makes sense.

Now it is possible to come off of a B737, DC9, B757, with good PIC time and be considered for captain. A320 type is preferred, but not required.

FO candidates should be considered soon too. Guys and gals coming off of the CRJ are great candidates. DO jet and SAAB too. Now would be the time to get on. With the amound of hiring and the projected growth, a FO hired in 2008 should be captain within that same year. If it takes longer, well not a bad FO job either.

Good luck and keep the questions coming!!
