That's the way it sounds, implementation details have not been presented. I'd suggest you apply asap, get the job offer, and then make darn sure you're guaranteed the domicile (if it's that important to you) before you accept a class date. If you show up day 1 and they say "sorry, you're going to LAX in the Saab" then I guess you can go home if you're unwilling to commute for a year 'til you can switch airplanes. Nothing ventured nothing gained.

Good luck!

Hey Eagle employees, check out the thread on a DFW crashpad. I am looking for a roommate.

Would they hire with 700/100? I have a friend on the inside as a FO also.

if you're from a bridge program, you'd be fine

If you're from a bridge program they'll hire you with 400/100. It makes me want to puke.

I haven't seen 400/100....I have seen 400/200.

Older guys like me?
 

Just wondering if Eagle is hiring any older guys like myself, 46. Especially with the prospect of the retirement age going to 65. I realize it would probably nix me flowing through to AA, but that is not a big deal to me. I already beat their minimums, 1100TT 100 Multi. I was fortunate enough to retire from my previous profession at an early age, so the low pay is not a factor. Always dreamed of a career in aviation. Any feedback would be appreciated.

Your definitly hirable. We have plently of older FO's.

That is all we need. Another pilot who doesn't care how much they make. There are too many people in this industry with your attitude already.

Pilotrod, I understand how you personally feel about the pay. If you want other pilots to even speak to you it means that you will have to fight alongside them for improvements even though you personally may not need them. 99% of the people you will be flying with really do need the money. By the way, don't ever voice the fact that the low pay does not bother you around other pilots. You would not get a nice response from most of them. So again, it's fine if you want to fly as long as you don't advocate lowering the bar.
