I have no idea. Just repeating the info I was told by a friend. Phone call was beginning of this week so info is current.
According to my friend. Endeavour wants you to have your ATP written now. But you can’t do just the written anymore you have to do the whole ATP course ($4k). Horizon is not requiring that. The other wholly owned regionals are pulling from their own cadet type programs and Skywest is 6-8 months out for a training date if you got hired today. So he feels pretty much stuck. Maybe stuck in a pipeline is the goal to prevent another hiring frenzy like a few years ago?
But he wants to be here so he’s just waiting it out and hoping to jump the line if a candidate bails out last minute.
