I really hope that doesn’t happen. Most new people I fly with seem to be around 2,500 or so when they got hired.

they are already doing it. I know of at least one guy who has about 1300hrs and maybe 10 hrs Multi. He said he needs to get to 25hrs before training. Something about our training getting him to 50, I honestly didn’t quite understand how he he had an offer but he does. Great guy, just hope he can get through training successfully.

This is what the regionals do. They’ll hire someone who’s short the 50 hours of ME (including total time 750/1,000/1,500). Some require 50 at the start of Indoc so they can go to ATP-CPT with 38 hours and get the other 12 in sims. Some will let them come in with even less than 38, get 12 in ATP-CPT, and the rest during their 121 sim training which is why they can’t do the oral until they’re in the middle of sims.

The standard multi time is 25 at the regionals. Between CTP and sim training, you get the remaining 25 multi hours required

25 is the minimum not just the standard. You can’t log and use more than 25hrs of sim toward the 50 required.

I was implying it’s the standard in the regional industry.

To clarify, you can’t use more than 25 of those hours towards multi, but can credit up to 100 hours towards TT.

Yeah but idk any airline offering 100hrs of sim time to reach 100 hrs. Usually it’s around 30hr more than what you need if you come in with 25hrs multi.

ATP Schools CFI's and L3 Harris CFI's come through with 1500 and ATP CTP plus ATP Jet Transition course. Have to go through their program, $$$$, and then work for them as a CFI. Already flying the line.
