It's official. 65 captain positions are open. Plus, 176 first officer positions in all the bases and all the aircraft. If you can get into a class, base transfer should be a piece of cake.

I applied last night with 750/ 118 ME , some of the multi engine being turbine. I realize I'm under the "published minimums" but have heard sometimes airlines look at other things as well like Degrees, etc. Anyone have any input? Figured it was worth a shot, not looking to get lit up for throwing in a resume under the limits. thanks!

I applied a little over a week ago with 830/105/20 turbine, SIC CE-500 type, ATP written. i have less than a semester left for a bachelors which im doing online. did not go the cfi route. I got the email today saying my app is being reviewed in 2 days. hopefully it goes through positive. but we will see. I heard they were pretty strict on their minimums though.

750 will not get you in at Eagle unless they drop the mins.

Understand, figured while I was on airline apps id give it a shot. I'll just keep instructing away. Thanks for the input. If they do drop the mins will my app be on file?

Also, how often do you guys update airline apps?

When they pull up applicants, their side of airline apps won't even show a applicant that is under the mins. Once you hit 800, it will show.

It is a great idea to already have your stuff in. How long will it take for you to get the mins, about a month or two? Just keep updating and get that time in.

If they do drop the mins, you'll still be good to go.

Good luck!

That should just about do it for all the '06 new hires. On to the 07's
