Default CAL mins

What's the mins they are going by?

I just talked to a EWR 73 FO she couldnt have been over 25yrs old with under 3000tt with less than a few months in the left seat of an RJ. I would think they would be looking in the >7000tt range with 1000pic turb min.

Whats competitive? CAL DAL etc...

I wonder if you could EDIT the title....so that we don't think you are asking if CAL is still @ 300 and 3/4 ....maybe: CAL Hiring Minimums???

You can get hired right at their published mins if you have a good internal rec or did a college internship...I've known several junior FO's leave RJ's for CAL in last 2 years. One even offered to get ME an interview, but the geography just wouldn't work out

Any word on that LAX base?

I had 11,000 hours (most PIC turbine) when hired at CAL, but then I'm an ugly white guy with no friends or relatives at CAL.

Yeah you got your job handed to you per the flow through agreement. Stop telling everyone how you "earned" your job and what a tough road it was.
