"5 EYEWITNESS NEWS points out that Mesaba and Pinnacle, NWA’s primary regional parters, do require more experience than most in the industry. Pinnacle pilots are required to have 1,000 hours of experience and Mesaba requires 650."

9E only hires FO's with 1000 hrs? Really? LOL!

BTW, I think this article or one like it was posted in the last month.

To the best of my knowledge only two airlines are holding hard to the 1000/100 mark (SKW and RAH). Even XJT is well below that mark. Yes SKW will interview at 850 hours but only if you have over 200 hours of 121 experience.
