Just curious, how did you know you were shot down? By status on the website? By phone call? After interview?

Under the US AQP training program, the only difference for a previously typed trainee is that your SPV (oral) can be given by a ground instructor instead of a check airman.

They are partial to those with turbine PIC (especially 121 and/or military), and strongly prefer folks with four-year degrees.

Anyone know the projected hiring that suppossedly will occur through 2012 and into 2013? Was the hiring window opened only for new hires into the Emb 190?

They say only the 190 but new hires end up going where there are openings.

When I was in training 4 months ago the word I kept hearing was 20 to 30 a month this year. 2013 would be all speculation this early, but if I were to guess I would say the same if not more with all the upcoming retirements.
