I'm a local guy that lives 15 mins from YIP but haven't heard a peep from them. 2900 total time, 2200 PIC, 2100 turbine, 1500 TPIC...mostly F-16 time with about 600 King-Air. I'm guessing I'm not competitive and that they probably want some long-haul experience. Any suggestions or advice?

Get the Part 121 time and start beating the Legacy interviews off with a stick. Meanwhile, the rest of us will fly the acmi widebodies for next to nothing.

Recently awarded 24 CA upgrades on the -400. The most junior of those will be about 6 years when they train. Moving beyond this group its only a handful of guys until we start upgrading guys hired in 2014.
