I heard the same thing. 140 newhires with interviews starting in November and classes sometime in the 1st quarter. I wonder if they're only going to interview those with the type like they did during the last round?

Is that in addition to the A-Tran'ies??

Sure hope SWA adjusts their computer point system draw from the run they did last spring.

Yes it is. AT runs a bit leaner on the pilot side so I'm guessing that these folks will fill in those gaps. They might want to be prepared for the 717 vice the 737.

The B737 Type Rating is listed under the ''Minimun Qualifications" section. Was that there before? Don't remember seeing that before as I applied last time without the type. Let's see if my app gets rejected.
