Hi!

Currently the Comm 250 hr mins can be reduced to about 188 hours at -141 schools.

How much will they reduce the 1500 hour minimum to? If they did reduce it to 500 hours, then Congress would be pissed and they would step in a pass a law saying the min hours are "X"!!! Game over.

141 schools would love to get some special attention that's not secret. Should they? That's the hot topic right now of course. You can read about all kinds of rumors online but nobody will know until this is all over.

I wonder how much "hour credit per academic class" can be granted.

Depends on the size of the bribe

according to the math being used for the Comm the ATP should be 1128 hours at a 141... but who's counting?

I think we should start taking bets on what it will be! That will be more fun than letting this thread slowly turn into the classic battle of the derogatory terms of "Pilot Mill" Vs. "Mom&Pop School".

I am gonna say 800-1000. If I had to pick a specific number, it would be 1000 I guess.

I dont see on what planet ATP mins should be below 135 mins.

I'll bet ppragmans paycheck that somebody got over excited eating chips ahoy and drinking mountain dew and came up with something useless that would send JC into a spiral of nonsense.

All that in one sentence, try to beat that.

In no way did I craft this idea myself... and with the stuff that gets passed these days... you never know. I honestly didn't know so I was bringing it up to the JC community.

So, we gambling on a pack of juicy fruit, and a 12 pack of schlitz?

I can talk because i worked there. :bandit:

4 year schools (UND, ERAU, bla bla)= yes
ATP and such = no

because a 4 year degree and loads of debt makes a better pilot?

 

[LoadMasterC141]

ATP has a 4 year degree program now though. So sidebet on ATP? Beer Nuts and a free game of pool?

 

[Murdoughnut]

I have a masters degree and a pilot's license - what does that get me?

Don't want to create that debate here, let's just say there are good pilots from both and leave it at that.

There are good pilots from both ends, but i just think saying going to xx school automatically reduces the amount of required hours is well, .
