Sort of!
If you come in at 1,000, you'll be an FO for 50 hours (our FAA waiver requires you to be an FO with us for 50 hours and until you hit 1,000).
While you're an FO, you'll fly wherever we need you in the system.
After, you'll be a restricted Captain and will have a base. Restricted = lower weather mins and additional mentoring.
When you hit 1,200TT, you'll be an unrestricted Captain and will have a base.
Once you hit 1,800, you will be at our preferred min for 1900 Captains and can transition. With that position, you can either have a base or be home based depending on your wants/needs and what is available.

Again, thanks for all your help on this thread

That is true. Your time as an FO would not count.
We are able to take pilots into the program at 800TT and no matter what time you come into the program with you have to fly 50 hours as an FO for us (part of the waiver).
So, if you come in at 800TT, those first 200 hours as an FO will not count toward your ATP.
If you come in at 1,000TT, those first 50 hours that you are required to fly as an FO will not count toward your ATP.
Once you hit the 1,000TT and 50 FO hours, you'll become a restricted Captain. The hours you fly as a restricted Captain count toward your ATP.
At 1,200TT, you become a non-restricted Captain and of course those hours count toward your ATP, as well.

You are certainly welcome!

Is there something going on in the main office? Myself and 2 other guys have applied for captain positions and have yet to hear anything. But my friend with 700 hrs received a call the next day for a spot right seat in the 99 till he hits 135 mins. If they are so desperate for captains why not contact people who meet 135 minimums?
