Congrats b190av8r! I just got the invite today as well. I applied March 28 when the window opened. I have scheduled my interview for June. I am so excited and beyond words to finally get this opportunity.
Stats:
10,800 hrs total
8,200 PIC
9,000 Turbine
ATP
Part 121 regional pilot just under 11 years
Part 135 cargo (BE58,PA31,C208, LR35)
CFI/CFII/MEI
4 year bachelor degree
Just completed a LR60 type rating in January 2016.
Never had the opportunity to attend a job fair. My airline is short staffed and I owe it to them first to be at work when scheduled.
Very thankful!
I'll be sure to get back on here after my interview to share my experience. Good luck everyone. Feel free to send me PM.
