Anyone with similiar times know if that's enough for a call? I know my turbine is pretty low, but I'm working on it.
They (non specific airline generalization) like to see 500 or 1000 hrs TPIC. 'Like' isn't the minimum as those candidates get fewer and fewer.
The drop off in hiring by the LCC's, and perhaps some other carriers, might increase the average/typical minimum standards in the coming months/year(s).
I'd guess you're in the low end of the range *but* above the minimums based on the lower edge of the people getting major airline jobs.
Fly as much as you can, on anything, and update at least every month. TPIC/turbine/large jet would be best but everything tacked on helps. If you're not above the numbers the computer program is looking for you're darn close. Every update might be the triggering event.
Good luck.
