Haven't gone to any yet due to my lack of multi time...I know they are having one with ATP in July, I think guys have been getting hired with pretty low times at the job fairs, thats actually what I was planning on doing after I build some multi time

Yes, DFW has the CRJ, ERJ and Saab. The past two new hire classes have had DFW ERJ slots. They must be filling up the Saab slots in DFW. I heard the class that started today had 6 people choosing DFW and they all got the jet.

Are there any restrictions at Eagle about switching equipment, like ATR to ERJ?

You CAN go from Prop to Jet but not viceversa unless its for CA upgrade.

Nope, sorry. You gotta take the time and fill that out.

On a side note anyone applying that wants an internal recommendation, I'll be glad to give them and give you 50% of the after tax value of the referal bonus. Just drop me a PM.

Barring major changes in the Airline environment, if you're hired at Eagle today, you could reasonably expect to see an upgrade in 3 to 5 years.

Right now there are many upgrades going on. That is because the AA guys are being called back. There were about 400 of them here. Not sure how many are still around. But once all the flowback are gone and all the 6-9 year fo's get there upgrade then it will go back to 1-5 upgrades per month. There needs to be growth to see upgrades below 4 years.

You should think about going to the career fair coming up in MIA. They will be there...and you can hand over a resume in person!!

You only have to pay if you want to send a resume to more than one airline... unless airlineapps has changed. I didn't pay anything when I sent in mine.

I think we're pretty firm on the 100 multi but don't quote me on that one.
Good luck and hope to see you here soon!
