For all ya'll considering Eagle
My dad is down in Dallas for recurrent this month. He was telling me that AE had another class of fourteen that they had to cancel, again, because of a lack in attendence. Apparently Eagle has been having problems like this since January. At any rate, my dad was telling me that Eagle has lowered their minimum flight requirements from 800tt/100me to 300tt/100me. Also, there was a time recently during which the mins were 500tt/100me.
With AA recalling guys and AE trying to expand, it is reasonable to think that the upgrade time will go down. Although, the current most junior jet captain was highered in '99.
Lastly, AE's web-site still shows the mins at 800tt/100me but just like a lot of other regionals, it seems they're just too lazy to change it.
So, use this info as you see fit.
Cheers,

Actually there was a guy at my interview who had 3000+ hours of CFI. He had gotten hired by eagle in SEP 2001, class got canx, so he went bcak and spent two MORE years as a CFI.
