How strict are they on the 100 mi distance from a reporting airport? Is 115 miles something they would consider within wiggle room?
(whenever they hire again, of course)
The 100 miles distance is not highway miles but a direct line. They are flexible in this however as they are more concerned with you being at the base within 2 hours, even for remotes. So 115 miles from the airport should be doable if you can drive it in under 2 hours.
As for hiring I've heard from reliable sources that they are not planning on any hiring until fall as no pilots are leaving. However that could change if the economy changes and the airline start hiring again.
