1600 hours total
500 turbine/121
College graduate/ aviation degree with good gpa
Ex-military
OBAP member
Internal letter of rec from a senior Captain
And I check the “minority box”


I was around 3000 when I interviewed in 2017, half of which was mil helo and the other half mostly single turbine. Plenty of other good stuff on the resume. Numbers are just one part of the formula and adjustable depending on ______… Good luck and keep applying.

Is that the first double digit class?

this is a step in the right direction— not only because the class sizes are growing— but because new folks are getting the bus. This should help sim availability issues.

I hope it means that we will receive a class sooner than later and maybe move their timeline up.

Just out of curiosity. I have 2300TT with 1200 of them being SIC on the 175. When applying are my chances better given that I have a 170/190 type? Or do they not really care? I know the whole recruiting system changed but wondering if anyone has some insight.
