Comparing the training list with the seniority list I'm coming up with a Jan '05 upgrade. Still better than the '00 which was last fall. Remember also there was no hires between '08 and '11 so it will instantly drop an additional 3 years. My guess it will stabilize at 4 1/2 to 5 years if the projected growth of 5-7 more airplanes comes true.

Remember guys, the Training Plan hasn't been updated recently. Also, upgrades have been given as little as eight days notice that they have an upgrade slot and subsequent class, so things are happening at a much faster place than what is planned.

Pete, not a sim instructor. Confirmed by people in PDX.

Alright, well you certainly seem to have done more research than me. I stand corrected.

So if I only had 1000 SIC at QX, but otherwise the qualifications for AS, does that mean AS would not look at my application? Do these mins ONLY apply to QX FOs?

I just got the TBNT email today. I applied with 1300 TT (no RATP) and all the other ATP mins met. Email said "This is not a reflection on the quality of your credentials; but rather, it reflects the extremely high level of competition for this particular job." Did I apply too early? How long do I have to wait to reapply?

That's the standard letter. If you don't meet the mins, that's what you'll get. To my knowledge, Horizon doesn't consider an application that doesn't meet the published minimums. If you don't have an RATP or the 1500... Re-apply as soon as you meet the mins, though.

Just for clarification, you don't need to have your R-ATP, but rather meet R-ATP minimums to get hired at Horizon correct? You will get your R-ATP on completion of your check-ride, just like you would ATP on completion of checkride if you met ATP mins.

Fair enough. I'm too old to be dealing with R-ATP crap.

Thanks for the quick replies. Yeah I thought I'd apply early and update my application as I got my hours, guess it doesn't work like that. Glad to hear I can reapply at 1500.

Any intel on when the next class dates will be? If so, how many souls in each class, historically?
