Misspelled Airlineapps.com email contact!
I am freaking out. Today, I saw a post on our pilots' Facebook page to check for the next 2019 job fair/expo email. They said if your app is out, you will get it... I did not. I have just realized that I misspelled my contact email address after two years with my app out! I feel that I am getting to the competitive stage in my regional career and am genuinely terrified that I might have missed an invite/ hogan assessment! Please, can someone put me at ease? Is there another way they get to you? Do they retry after X amount of months?... And yes, I know, I'm an idiot! Ughhhhhhh...

Also, I think the folks who run the hiring are probably pretty good folks. If you can, call them or send an email to them explaining your error. It happens. Ask if you missed an invite. There will be a record of it. They will tell you. Who knows, maybe you’ll really connect with them and get an invite because of this. What a country!

The good news is: chances are your application never got pulled if you are describing yourself as just "getting to the competitive stage" in your regional career. APC225 had great advice about the email address thing.
Whether or not contacting them is a good idea is a tougher question to answer. You're basically going to be admitting poor attention to detail. I don't know that they'll be sympathetic. But I also could be wrong.

right... they could look negatively against it or it could speak to my character for calling myself out and resolving the issue. Who would I even contact about that though? I don't want to be throwing my name all around UAL management as the guy who couldn't even get his email address correct.

Relax. Breathe. Find you mistake, admit it, fix it and move forwrd. The macro things in the industry are (finally) in your favor if you have the qualifications.
Fly the Airplane, Silence the Warning, Confirm the Emergency oh, and then fix the problem.
Cheers; hope it works out.
