I interviewed on the 14th June. I got an email. Didn’t have to do a sim eval. Waiting on the GS date.
That’s awesome, was is at an email saying you’re in the pool? May I ask how many hours you have? Thanks

As fast as it clears TC's desk, and TC is known for their promptness :wink:

There are friendly bets amongst crews that it won't happen till after Christmas.

I never wish for people to lose money, but I hope y'all lose that bet.

I'm looking forward to switching all my transborder repo flying to Porter and those E195s can't come soon enough.

Any idea what terminal you guys will use?

Congrats! I just applied last week with 1500TT (well 1465TT) and over 300 multi-turbine. How long from applying to getting an interview did it take? Do you think my odds are good? haha

Thanks!

I know of a few people back in May or June who have interviewed both for FO and DEC on the E2. Don't know where they are at now in the process.

There must be a bunch of Jazz E-jet pilots that have gone through…… I know of one with an interview scheduled.

As far as the E2, I do not believe any offers have been sent out or any siginificant communication. They only just finalized management on the E2 side, jet isn't certified by TC just yet, and sim is in standby on Level C.

Once the jet gets its final certification, likely offers will go out asap, while the sim will switch from C to D upon aircraft certification. I imagine that sim will be running 24 hours a day once the new crews reach that point.

I'm excited for the industry movement. It's been quiet over the summer with AC sitting still.
