Haven't heard anything, but with hiring for Delta, United and American you might think they would, BUT the minimum hours for upgrade are 4000. With the quick growth, that's got to factor into why the mins are so high.

4000 hours TT in the regionals is low time, these days. It's hard to build 4000 hours in fighters or flying off a boat, though.
That's not the case anymore, so I've heard. Or it's being ignored by both the company and the union, at least.

More than half the interviewees recently, had plenty of experience in heavier equipment.
With upcoming upgrades in as soon as 2-3 years, they are looking to hire folks who are ready to be in the left seat yesterday...

I saw the 4000 hour requirement in the contract, but like you said, I guess that can get ignored. Maybe 4000TT for insurance requirements?
