I hear that they just lowered their mins to 500/50. Can anyone confirm or deny?

yeah i can confirm that, im there right now, and those MINS ARE TOO HIGH. anyone with a commerical multi is what our flight manager told us, so if you dare go ahead and send in your stuff, but be ready. the dec class had about a 50% wash out rate.

their mins are as listed, but they are hiring well below the minimums as i doubt we'll ever see them actually "change" what's listed there. Good luck, but with 30% washout rates recently, you better be ready for what you could be getting into.

Most likely true!!!!! TSA can not seem to pass most of their new hire classes....What a smart decision to low standards and get folks that are going to have a tough time with their ground school.

timing is everything, I had 1200 total and 140 multi and they woudlnt touch me, Jack*sses

And you are now in a much better place! Good thing for you they were jack*asses. I would say your timing was pretty good.

I am in the Dec class.
The 50% wash rate seems a bit high,
The ground is not too hard as it seems, but them people got to the oral and had a rough time, and most got that fixed, and then sims were/are pretty tough at times.
But relax and keeping your head up is about the best thing you can do.
Just stick with it.
I have yet to form an opinion on the training, never done it before till now

Thats called the "grace of God". Used in a sentence: "But for the grace of God go I"

Yeah, because XJT is on really solid footing right now.
(By the way, the sentence you're thinking of begins with the word "there.")

If you're getting on with just a commercial-multi, aren't you going to an FO for a long time while renting 172s to get that pic time??
