Good point, but I was REALLY impressed with the new program. Lots of sim time, and tons of resources. As usual, they wanted us to pass with flying colors. I've heard the only people having issues were people expecting to slide through without actually studying (many were even current SkyWest FOs).

2. Although, I have heard stories of the exact scenario above. A little 121 time seems to complete the "magic formula" on a resume for fighter types applying to Fed Ex.

Thanks for the heads up. Honesty isn't a problem. It'll be a fit for both parties or it won't be...

Fresh off interview yesterday. Great experience. They told us (five of us) that classes are planned for the following dates and sizes.
CRJ:
10/22 = 16
11/22 = 16
E120:
8/6 = 20
9/3 = 10
10/1 = 10
11/5 = 10
12/3 = 10

I'm surprised they need that many Bro guys. I've flown 7 hours total in the past two months on reserve in the Bro even on call first.

They need Bro guys because they have a bunch of them coming up on their one year seat lock. They'll be transitioning to the CRJ... It's crazy how quick your seniority goes up in a junior EMB base like FAT. Last year I went from being on reserve and hardly flying, to bidding better than 50% in just a few months. That was in FAT... Now I'd be around the top 25% if I was still there.

I want to be in that 11/22 RJ class! App in. Resume in. Just barely don't meet mins (1100 right now). It seems every time I approach mins they bump em.

That's fine. My resume was left by a Bro CA and he has nothing but good things to say.
