Soon to be lowered to 100 hours and soft morals.

I'll go if they offer me a CRJ-700 street captain in ORD job..... :D

We are getting there. Talked to a guy who got on with 325TT.

Hope you like XNA

Is eagle giving a ATP test at the interviews?

STAY AWAY FROM THE CRJ (at eagle in chicago that is)

no more ATP test

What's next???

Have you done your first solo, then come on down and join Eagle.....

this is not funny anymore, there's now way in hell I would do IOE at a regional, F that. My buddy does that at Express Jet, he's got some stories...

Well first off I am not a low timer, but I think your rushing to judgement. Most IOE captains are very experienced. I dont care how much "Intructor time" one has, people are bound to make some mistakes on IOE flying a jet for the first time. What exactly are you afraid of? learning from an experienced captain?

Also, in some of the low timers defense, I HAVE seen some very capable 400-600 hour pilots here. I'm not sure about the lower timers yet, but the training department over here at eagle is doing a great job at getting EVERYONE ready for what lies ahead; I'm sure they will do just fine.

Why in the world would I be afraid of learning from an experienced captain??? you read my post backwards, I would afraid of letting a new guy with 40 hours of multi-engine time land a jet (while I'm in the left seat). Teaching IOE at a regional its not for me AT ALL.

You don't have to agree with me, everytime we talk about low timers getting on with the regionals, things get heated. There's always some who jump in to defend them.

If you feel safe flying a jet with someone who doesn't even have 400 hrs total time, that's cool, none of my business, I respect that.

I'd much rather not do it.

The times may be low, but they weed out all but the very best. The guys I know that made it through are all very capable. Some of the low timers get sent to FlightSafety for Regional Jet Orientation, which includes 10 hours as PF and 10 hours PNF in a full motion ERJ145 sim. So you don't go to training without having a background.

If you want scary - look at places like Piedmont. They'll take you without a commercial multi. Just show up with your temporary Commercial SEL and have a pulse and on you go to Dash-8 training.

Quality over quantity. There are 1000+ hour pilots out there that have no business being where they are. So you can't say that someone with 400 hrs is a menace to the skies.

"So you can't say that someone with 400 hrs is a menace to the skies."

There are no absolutes, but I can say someone with 1000+ has more experience than someone with under 400. And it stands to make sense than the more experience one has, the better F/O one will be. There are always exceptions to the rule, though.

RJ courses are no substitute for flight time. There are seats to be filled, though, and it's interesting seeing the lengths the regionals will go to in a effort to see bodies in those seats. Lower mins, paying for RJ courses, signing bonuses. I'm afraid to ask what's next....

chimpanzees!

You can teach a monkey how to fly but you cant teach it to make a dicision.

agree, you actually got my point.

And you cant teach a monkey or a pilot how to spell.

Welcome to aviation, and i hope you like being in hotel rooms alone for birthdays, holidays and saturday nights.
