1,500 hr/ ATP exceptions?
 

I've heard of some regionals offering to pay to finish minimum requirements for an ATP (up to 100 hours of flight time to meet the 1,500TT). Was looking to see if anyone's heard of offers closer to 200 hrs to bridge that gap. Thanks in advance !

ive literally heard of neither of these.

Silver has a program like this. I don't know many details, but I think they give you $5000 to build time, or will pay for your CFI so you can use that to build time. Again, I don't know exactly how it works.

One step closer to ab initio.

I believe Republic offers the 100 hour gap now

Good info, thanks for the response

Just keep in mind that for all of these programs you are still paying for your time. It comes out of your bonus. It is like getting an advance on your future pay to finish up your time.

Ok understood I didn't know that. It looks like I may hafta spend another year 135 before stepping over. Thanks!

Could you find another way to get 200 hours faster than another whole year? And yes Republic offers 100 hours as well as multi time. The latter is often quite useful to just get the required time and get into class since getting hired at a place that flies multi can be a process. My friends got 30 hours of multi in a week and still had some money on the bonus left over.
