1. it depends partly on your previous PIC experience. If you have PIC in a transport category aircraft that will count. If you read the ATI contract it has the details there (google it, contract is out there).

2. plan on approximately 500hrs a year. That’s a busy schedule for us. It’s possible to do more but that’s not necessarily the norm.

3. No idea about interviews. We had a pretty full pool when Covid hit. So we have been hiring and interviewing from those whose name was already in the hat. Maybe soon, see point 0.

4. Excellent. They are willing to work with you and are not out to bust you. If you put in the effort they will too. I had no complaints. Plus side note, full pay during training! So that’s a plus as well.
