Can anyone shed a light on why Eagle is planning to hire 100 pilots this year and 400 next year.

I asked one of our union reps for you. Essentially we are losing 180 FO's per year.....15 per month. Only 15 furloughs showed out of 70.

The company expects attrition to pick up with FO's having ATP's. They are also worried that not many folks meet the new experience requirements. Additionally, if American ever comes to an agreement with the APA then Eagle "could" see movement in the 824 pilots that can flow to American.

That is all I know.
BTW: expect a non-precision approach during the sim portion.

It will probably be addressed thru "home based lines" so don't expect 24/7 per Diem and hotel. Just a guess. If there's a way for the company to screw us, they'll find it.

Eagle pilots -> resources center -> bottom right under other web sites
third bullet uniform solutions.

You might have to call the number to set up an account.

How hard is it to get based out of Dallas as a new hire?
