Piedmont Airlines

Just curious my roommates CFI is wanting a job with Piedmont. He has 800 hours and 35 multi. He got a chance? Or is 50 Multi the bare minimum?
 
For what it's worth - I have 1,200 hours in the Dash 8 from Allegheny and it is a blast to fly!! All other things being equal (contract, pay, QOL, etc) I'd pick a Dash over a CRJ any day of the week and twice on Sundays.

Hello: I submitted my materials this past Sunday. Today is Wednesday and I got a call from PDT with an invite for an interview. I'll fly out on Monday April 2 and interview on 3rd. My logbook stats are: 1411TT and 126 MEL and 1 Turbine, I do have BA and my ATP-Written. Anyone know about there interview please speak! Also have they started a sim as well?

Thanks,

I guess that explains some of the AWAC hate. I wonder if they hate Colgan for "taking" some of the flying out of LGA and BOS? Strange world. We hated on AWAC for a while when they "took" PHL from us, but then we thought about it and were glad to get rid of the place. Now it sounds like they may be bailing and we end up back in PHL. Go figure.

As for PSA being dismantled? I doubt it. Could be though. The way things work around here is we would find out when we went out to the airplane and found a padlock on the door.
 
It's my understanding (and that isn't that much!) that the longer routes out of PHL are going to Republic and the 190's and they are putting that flying into LGA and BOS.

Where would they be bailing to? (AWAC)
 
Ooooh...does that mean Colgan will be pushed out of LGA and BOS?

Also, what would be the reasoning of sending a 170 to State College or Ithaca or Scranton?

I don't know what the future of Colgan will be in LGA or BOS. AWAC was actually against adding additional LGA flying. I believe they are replacing some of Chautauqua's US Air 145 operation there.

Key word = longer :)
