Called her last week, and they put me for first week of Jan. Good luck, if you know anyone at Eagle have them bang on hrs door for ya, I think it is what makes the difference, otherwise you just need to wait till they get to your app. My buddy told me the guy told him he had about 800 apps to get through.

I see, it definetly helps to know someone thats for sure. Well, I just got an email from them, seems im not up to par to be a regional airline pilot for them.
They said they don't disclose the reason for the dissaproval, and that i can reapply in 6 months.
Damn I'm really bummed out about this. I can't possibly see how i could not even be competitive for even just an interview.
I have a degree in industrial management, MBA, never failed a checkride/flight test/ written exam, etc., squeaky clean driving record (1 speeding ticket 8 years ago), almost 1500 total time, over 200 ME, regional jet course completed, even 27 hours of jet sic time.
Oh well, guess I'll just have to make my millions selling stuff on the internet for another 6 months.
