Very true. Now flip side of my story is I was planning on getting hired about 3 years prior to my hire date. So a bit unlucky there. Take the good with the bad I guess. I would have been better off sitting right seat for 6 or 7 years rather than fly small twin pistons. It was a great experience and I am thankful for that, but my bank account would have been happier at awac waiting to upgrade.

I was in a similar situation when I applied. I just responded to the email and explained that I couldn't make the dates they were offering and they immediately offered more dates to accommodate my schedule.

Best of luck

5 on 3 off typically. You get your reserve times daily from scheduling. Plan to fly quite a bit, reserves are utilized heavily at times.

From what I understand reserve is running 4 to 6 months right now.

They are still aggressively hiring. Every email we get has a note about pilot referrals. My guess is they would take it easy this week. But interviews almost everyday.
