I just was called for an interview!! I have few cents above 1500 tt half of that turbine; furloughed from 121 in June. I also had an internal rec. She did ask if I had any experience in the last 12 months then 6. I fly for a volunteer organization here in MI so I have about 10 hours in the last 6. She also said they are short and need to get these interviews asap. I am excited-nervous and am looking forward to the interview. I wish everyone luck hopefully this industry is looking up.

Those are the official minimums... (just checked right now in Airlineapps.com)
# American Eagle’s qualifications are as follows:
-Commercial Pilots Certification with multi-engine and instrument ratings
- Total Fixed wing of 1000 hours preferred
- Multi-engine fixed wing time of 200 hours preferred
- A current flying job (12 month experience)
- Current FAA First Class Medical
- IFR Currency
- FCC License
- Possess the ability to work in the US
- Possess the ability to travel in and out of the US to all cities/countries served by American Eagle
- Ability to relocate
- Ability to work weekends, nights, shifts, holidays, and overnight trips
- Minimum age 21
* Flight time requirements are commensurate with experience
The following preferred requirements are common amongst Eagle’s most successful applicants:
- Actual instrument time to be 10% of total time
- Six months experience with a Part 121 or Part 135 operation
- ATP Certificate or successful completion of valid ATP written test
- Hours flown in most recent 12 months to exceed 100 hours
- Fixed wing multi-engine turboprop experience
- College Degree
Currently I have
- 1,075 total
-62 Multi time
- 12 month experience
- 12 months of 135 experience
- College Degree
- IFR current
Do you guys think I can have a chance to work with them???? I'm trying to build some multiengine time this month so at least the see that I'm working to rise them.
BTW... the application still say that the minimum time is 500 total time...
