They policy is that they don't tell you why they are rescinding you. Just apply back in 6 months.

Sorry to hear that they pull out your pre-conditional offer. They need a lot of people.

I know of guys who have been hired lately who are in their 40s

I got hired in July of 2010 and I'm 52 so, no, age is not an issue. If you were in your 60's, maybe.

haha, good deal. Can't wait to say "yes SIR" to my 25 year old Captain!! :-)

Remember that ole Army saying "Respect the rank, even if you don't the man" lol

I'm kidding, i get along with most everyone. i couldn't care less if my Captain was 21 years old, he still has many more hours in the plane than i do right!!

2 questions...

What does an H with a triangle around it mean?
Also- What are the 121 duty time rules....


thanks

H with Triangle in what context? on shipping labels, an airport sign, on an aircraft???


121 times, Just the basics?

FAR 121.471(a) reads:

No certificate holder conducting domestic operations may schedule any flight crewmember and no flight crewmember may accept an assignment for flight time in scheduled air transportation or in other commercial flying if that crewmember’s total flight time in all commercial flying will exceed –

1,000 hours in any calendar year;

100 hours in any calendar month;

30 hours in any 7 consecutive days;

8 hours between required rest periods.

It gets a LOT more involved than that, not sure how far you want to go into it, but you can get it all at: Guide to Flight Time Limitations and Rest Requirements Those are from June 2002, i'm not 100% how much has changed since then, but that shows a lot of Q & A's that might be helpful.

H is helipad
121 duty rig i think is company specific, but flight times are 8/30/100/1000

What bases and airplanes are you guys in training getting?

I have flown with many Captains at Eagle on the ATR. Majority are younger and one older. They have been nothing but professional and respectful. The best group of people I have ever worked with. I heard it's quite different on the jet side of AE.

Everything depend in what they need. They've been hiring in all models and bases.

Expect the worst case escenario and you'll be happy at the end of the first bid. ;)
