CaptP,

The regionals are also Part 121 so the UAL students would need 1500 hours for a regional spot...same as mainline (unless the school gets some kind of carve out for r-ATP min flight times).

r-ATP mins usually come to graduates of academic institutions rather than commercial flight training organizations:
