When it comes time to interview and you have to fill out your hours.
Im currently flying and have logged more hours since my airline apps was reviewed and invited for the interview. Do I put my hours since I sumitted my app in the sheet you have to fill out or the hours from when I did my airline apps, which would be lower than my logg book.

If you really wanted to cover all of your bases before the interview, update your airlineapps.com profile to match the hours on your resume. That might help to set your mind at ease if there are any doubts.
With that being said, I doubt they would raise a flag if your times didn't match up hour for hour, or tenth to tenth. With the amount of applicants they are processing I would think they have bigger fish to fry rather than nit pick someones flight time line by line. Now if your resume and application were off by a few hundred or thousand hours that would probably raise an eyebrow, so use your best judgment.
Don't be too freaked out about the interview man. The worst they can say is "no thanks."

Surprisingly no MIA (ATR or EMJ) in this class?
Old guy here, with lots of time, trying to get back into flying.
Looking for MIA F/O slot in either plane.
Hope to get it straight out of GS.
I heard they have your assignment before GS starts?
Looks like I should be the most senior in my class, if it is still done by DOB...
Any chance of postponing GS, to get desired base at a later date?
Thanks everyone for the very informative posts.

No, thats just a vacancy bid that will close on Feb 27th. The October date means you will have to enter training no later than Oct 2011, but 90% of the time you enter much faster. We usually get these vacancy bids about once a month, so there will hopefully be another one soon.

Aloha,
No one can say why there are no newhire slots for MIA EMJ. This is the second vacancy bid and there have been few takers. Best guess is that if again only a few bid to MIA then there will have to be assignments to newhires. Your best bet now for MIA is to bid either ATR or EMJ (whichever you would rather fly) for any domicile and then bid MIA when the next vacancy bid runs. Bids will probably continue on a monthly basis form now until the end of the year so there is plenty of opportunity to bid Miami even if initially you are elsewhere. Good luck.

Hi all, I was hoping to get some feedback on what might be the best path. CRJ in ORD or EMB in DFW. I actually live in SAT, but I hear the commute from KSAT To KDFW is terrible.
I'm curious of what y'all think would be the best QOL, and which one would have the shortest reserve.
Thanks.
btw anyone interviewing March 2nd?
