Does anyone know what kind of hours are competitive now'a'days? I have just over 5,000TT, on Dash-8, E-145 and now A320 in Europe, but unfortunately not much in the way of PIC time yet unfortunately.. Once I renew my FAA medical, I'll throw my number in the hat..

Does anyone know how the 135/91 guys fall into the hiring equation? I'm currently at a home based frac job, but would like to get on at K4. Unfortunately, or fortunately, I am tied to the area I live in, and unless an airline drops a base in MEM or BNA I will likely not fly 121 because of the horror stories I hear about commuting.
Long story short..what are the chances of a guy with no 121 time getting on at K4? Thanks.

This is not an entry level job, you need to come wearing your big boy and girl pants.
Don't show up with distractions like family and business issues on the side. You are given a mountain of manuals, and yes, you need to read them all and continue to read them all for as long as you work here.
I can't speak about how it used to be here, but I keep hearing from everyone that it has improved greatly, that the old reputation this place has is no longer valid.
