So basically apply now and see what happens. I just didnt want to apply and have it automatically reject me because im 9 hours short multi time.

Airline apps automatically re-submits every time you update it. Your app may get thrown out by being 9 hours short but the second you get your 9 hours and update it'll go green in the system. Airline applications take a long time to fill out so if you wait until you have the requirement to start you'll likely waste a lot of time that you didn't have to waste. Seniority is everything. Get it done now.

Also suprised that it should take a few months for them to get back?? I thought the regionals as everyone says on the forums were looking for anything with a pulse?:confused:

The ones that are hiring everyone with a pulse are the ones you don't want to work for. There's a reason they're taking everyone they can get.

I am pretty sure that the delay in getting contacted after applying is just how the process works at some airlines. I've heard consistently from brand new ATP's to retire military guys with a lot more hours and valuable experience which is sometimes given preference all say it took 1-3 months to get a call after applying.

Example; I applied over a month ago at a regional (I have jet PIC time/ not 121) and still my app says "not reviewed". Which tells me they haven't even looked at it yet.

Hope this helps.
