Just to be clear, I don't think it's a good thing, but certainly not as bad as the others that I previously mentioned. And for the record, I'm new at SKYW, but I haven't heard of anybody being hired below mins either. |
I don't see anything about a JOB. It just says to interview.

True, but I think that you're splitting hairs. They wouldn't offer to interview someone they wouldn't hire. Just a waste of time. Still, I don't know of anybody who has gone this route, but I haven't been here that long.

I just flew with a FO who was an instructor ar Riddle. His student (who was very well qualified..ROTC,some NASA camp deal, FAA safety stuff, holds record for highest teen glider..etc,etc.) was just hired at SW with 950tt and 300 multi.
(sound of me eating my hat) I guess it really is happening. Sad. I never thought it would happen. Should have asked her to come back after 50 more hours in my opinion. |
Rumor has it, years ago non-pilot employees could interview and be offered the job with something on the order of 850tt (maybe even as low as 750tt). Going to class was contigent upon having 1000tt at that time. The idea was that it would be a month or two from interview to class date and they could show up right at 1000tt.
The other thing that they've done in the past is allow sim time to count towords total time. I'd heard they had done this to allow someone with some very good connections to get on way under 1000tt. |
