Yeah...there's been a ton of attrition there in the last couple of years, particularly among FO's. It's not just the long upgrade that's causing people to leave...the treatment of reserve pilots there is despicable. I know a lot of unhappy folks there (I used to be one of them).

On the bright side, their contract isn't bad, and it's a very stable job...if you don't mind a stable FO position.

The F100 sim is AWESOME and Bill is an excellent individual. Waiting on the call this Friday so keeping my finders crossed. Good Luck to all of you.

PS: Don't lie to them, they will find out.
When did they stop using the B707 sim for interviews? that thing was pretty sweet. like crawling into a submarine.

They use whatever is available... some people have gotten the SAab sim but most get the F100.

If the "Sim Guy" is Bill R., don't believe a word he says. He interviewed me eight years ago, and HE LIED. Plus he drinks too much and smokes cheap cigars.

Hey, Bill, can I bum a smoke? Oh, and while you're up-

Welcome aboard, guys.

99% sure they do provide lodging...and single-occupancy even, if I'm not mistaken - which I certainly very much could be!!

How can you say that about Bill?? How did he lie to you? I got a good impression of him.... nice guy, let me play with the sim afterwards, so I can't complain.

Iowa Farm Boy- Do you still live in Iowa? Im hopping to move back pretty soon. Send me a pm if you can. Maybe we are from the same area.

BTW: Im at 500/100 at a current 121 company. What are the chances of me getting on with Eagle? Im attending a seminar within the month. I have also applied already just haven't herd anything.

I am also VERY interested in American Eagle because of the Miami base and I live in Orlando. If I worked for Eagle how easy or hard of a commute would if be from Orlando to Miami or Even Orlando to Dallas?....
