SkyWest Mins
 
I haven't seen this mentioned on here yet, but it seems like a big deal on the company forums. If you look closely at the pilot minimums on the SkyWest website, it now says 1,000 hours total (preferred). Just throwin' it out there.

Plus I never really start any threads, so I thought I'd be productive rather than sit on the sidelines and make sarcastic comments.

This is true. The last class had a few 800 hour guys that had no crj equivalent time.

This is why I still wonder if there is something (growth) coming? Do we really need more people this bad? There are no red arrows in SLC this month.

I think they have. That was my point.

My understanding is they're still sticking to 100 of multi and instrument, but they're not holding firm on 1,000 total. But who knows, maybe they're not even holding to those.

Partially true. As of right now there will be no new hires in the second class in March. After that though we are stock piling again.

Still have to have the 100 ME and 100 Inst.

100 ME is still tough though. I already shelled out so much money for flying (including CFI/CFII), MEI will only add to the damage
