    If it was a dream world I would be interviewing, and then be in the new hire class. It's a long way away, but I'm working to get there. Good luck to anyone interviewing!

    What is the average hours/month at a regional? So how many years is that? Those look like very large numbers to me....

    I am at 5600tt & 3800 jet pic.
    It has taken me 7 years and 2 months at a regional to get at these hours.
    I was hired with 1000tt and 100 multi in Nov 99.

    It looks like I am competitive w/ those #'s...just hoping # praying they'll call soon.

    Sweet! He's more or less in. Unless there's something in his background check about getting busted running a meth lab.

    Does he still have to sit with the psych or do they still do that?

    I'd say the average over here is probably around 75 to 80 flight hours per month for a line holder. (Not picking up extra time.)

    Just my .02 cents, but pilots have been at their regional jobs longer because the movement to the big iron has been slow over the past 6 or 7 years. Hence the "large" numbers.

    Good luck to those who might be interviewing soon or have already done so!!

    Well heck.. here it is.


    It was me. I interviewed on the 23rd and was subsequently offered conditional employment. It was a VERY well run process.

    Just waiting on the medical paperwork to get verified and am hoping to get assigned the Feb 5 class.

    Congrats, Peanuckle!!! You were one of my two guesses. Great news, and this is the first period since I have been at JC in 2001 that I can remember and member getting hired at a major/legacy. Now we have had at least 2. Congrats again!!
