I have heard if you don't have a degree you need a good amount of 121 or 135 experience. Flew with a recruiter recently and they are interviewing non stop and when that happens there's only so many class spots. That's why the class delay. 10 people a week and hiring has been going strong since the AA announcement leads to the delay. Didn't ask about no degree but have heard you need experience. Compass at one point not long ago was hard req of a degree, I doubt they will let that go easily until they have to. Doubt we're to that point yet.
