Any plans to increase minimums soon because of the 1500 rule?
Looks like the 100 multi is a requirement I was told by a recruiter at the SAT job fair. The 500/50 shown on Airlineapp is not correct, per that same recruiter.
Anyways working on that 100 multi, 40 to go :-(

Hey guy, share the goodness will ya! We're sinking over here on the legacy ASA side. The only job I've had that if I were to quit and start over at the bottom of the company I work for, I would move up the ladder quicker.

Hmmm........

The "furlough" that was suppose to happen me but never did was actually a dissapointment.

We're in the same boat, buddy. Maybe I'll see you in training if we can manage an August or September class. I'm trying to stay positive.

Yes Omnivorous, positive attitude is always a must, especially in this industry...

KP, you'd rather furlough and commute than stay in your home state?

I don't see why they are so strict on the 100 multi...6 months ago 700TT/50 multi and u were in. At that time I was no where near that and scrambled to muster up 50 only to see the bar go up to 100. Now I'm crawling up to the 100. Most of my time is in a 310, pic xc sometimes in solid IMC( cause i can cancel alot of my primary students and go) and I feel that should count for more than some zero to hero guy that flew Seminoles as a "safety pilot". I understand hr5900 with the total time but an ATP does not have a multi requirement, what gives? Insurance?

I usually don't agree with the geezers talking about the younger generation's entitlement mentality, but posts like these are starting to make me think twice. GMAFB dude.

AFAIK the 500/50 is if you have a special factor in your favor (letter of recommendation, RJ course, internship, etc). It's listed that way in AirlineApps so they can retrieve your app if you are one of these types. Otherwise it's 700/100.
