The more guys hired after me the better

PM me for better info.

Ahhhh. Ok. Very cool news indeed.

I know the window's closed right now, but what are competitive quals for applicants these days? I imagine there are a lot of guys applying from the operators who've closed their doors, just wondering if I'd every have a snowball's chance, lol.

What kind of time and experience do you have? I would think(guess) that as the CP gets more apps(and he has a ton right now) he can be choosier, so yes it will likely get tougher, but they can't say no until you apply.

PM if you would like some more info.

I'd PM, 130, but don't have the count yet.

Got about 3100TT, 1400 ME, 1550 Turbine (probably 1400 TPIC), and 2920 PIC. I know it's probably nowhere NEAR what they're getting, but never hurts to ask, right? Also have ATP and current FAR 135 C-550 SIC.

Thanks, I'll just wait for the window...getting really skittish with the stuff going on at work, so I may not be able to wait before applying somewhere else. Doesn't this kind of feeling just make your day? Jeez.
