Interview
Good Evening,
I've been on PSA's website and saw the minimums to apply are 1,300 TT. Do they allow you to interview earlier than that, 6 months out, like some other regional's?
Currently looking at Republic and PSA because of the DC basing. Even Endeavor if I decided I want to commute but that is what I am trying to avoid. Hear life at regional's is completely different when you live in base.
Been a long time lurker of the threads and forums. Getting to that point where I've started studying Sheppard Air Interview Prep and airline interviews.
Thanks for any input you may have. This will be my first 121 job.

Living in base is a huge deal to QOL especially the first 8 months since your seniority will be reserve or R2 build ups mostly from DCA or CLT. Now of those first 8 months or so 3-4 will be training so you’re looking at about 4 months or so reserve last I checked but may be a bit longer.

Depending on where you are in the DC area, you could also consider driving to ORF or PHL, both of which currently have a faster time to a Round 1 line, which unlocks SAP for you.

I wouldn’t make that drive from DC.

It’s not terrible coming from the south

All the wholly owned's are well behind the curve, and not looking to catch up anytime soon.

Correct me if I wrong, but isn't it expected that the Endeavor classes will be reduced to just 1 class a month starting in December 2018... from 2 classes a month currently?
Pilot hiring cut in half due to F/O over-staffing already, and growth plans still undecided / changing. Thus, reserve duty in all bases (NY) will be extended by a number of months?
