I noticed piedmont and lakes have already updated their interview mins to as low as 800 and 1000hrs respectively. I'm curious to see if they interview and put sub 1500hr guys in a pool until they meet the available legal mins.

Do you mind telling us which school you went attended or are attending? I tried to call up my old chief pilot from my university the other day to check on their status, and still haven't been able to get in contact with them yet. I'm assuming from your name Ohio U?

Yeah I went to Ohio U. I graduated last year. I emailed the faa contact listed on the final ruling and got some further info. She said that they are reviewing the applications as they receive them and I know one school has been approved. If I were you PiperDriver I would try to point your school in the right direction. The instructions are in AC 61-139 and the application is faa form 8700-1. I got my school moving on it early in hopes that they would be one of the first approved. Hopefully they are soon

I think this could bring more people into the aviation industry. They wouldn't have to have the fear of having 250tt and needing 1000 more hours before looking marketable to anyone. Flight schools could benefit from a flow through sort of like the airlines do.

The FAA is seeking comments on this subject

I have 1400 hours TT and about 450 XC even after working for a survey company for 18 months and taking into the account the "flyover" rule for XC ATP minimums.

The XC time is going to be a limiting factor for a lot of instructors moving up. Even with an AABI degree, at 1000 hours most instructors wont meet the XC requirements. UND did a survey on their instructor group to determine on average how many hours of XC they get, and out of the 100 or so instructors on staff, most would be instructing until ~1300 to meet the XC requirement.
