Here at STL I have met no pilots with less than 1000/100. More CFIs than i thought are here, but almost everyone has turbine time via right seat part 91 legs, former 121/135, or military. Lots of ex piedmont dudes here. That should give you an idea of who is getting in here.

In STL though you're trianing for the 170 though, correct?? I don't think RAH will hire under 1000 for the big-bird...and unless you know someone, gotta be 23+...

I got offered the 170. I didn't know anyone. I didn't even meet the mins for it. No 121. No turbine. Nothing but a CFI. I was 23 though...

For the 8,384,109,486 time...there is almost no rhyme or reason as to who goes 170 and who doesn't.

And the majority of EMB guys (145 and 170) go to STL with the overflow sent to IAH.

Gotcha...I would have considered taking RAH's interview if I could have gotten the 170 ;-)

i was offered a position today (less than an hour after finishing the interview) on the 170. their reasoning was that it gives me a better chance of getting IND as my domicile.

so there's one part of the rhyme

On a whim, I just applied to Republic. Can I go to Denver now?

All you need to do is to see if you will be flying on the Republic certificate. Then your chances are good.
