Last I heard it was 767's BWI-LGW to take advantage of SWA feed in BWI. I requested an interview in August and they replied all their interview slots were filled. (At the time I was a current 767 PIC/transatlantic.) Hadn't heard anything since.
Got some information that most of the interviewees were current and relatively young Delta 767 captains who were going to bail out of Delta to get their lump sum retirement before they lose the option. I guess the soon-to-be millionaires needed something to do in their free time, so they decided en masse to grab jobs from those who lost their retirement and might really need them.

PILOT USA...did you try to get a job there?
Skylink plans to start soon with 767-200s flying BWI-Stansted. Tht is likely their initial route and they will expand from there. They have their show/cause order (SCO) and they appear to be well managed and well run. this may be found on the US DOT website.

<<<It's not for me, though, I'm waiting until they get the MD88ER. Then, I'll apply.>>>
You'll have a VERY long wait. Their only plans are for the 767-200 and 767-300. I think it was nine airplanes by year end.

Jim,
Just my usual, feeble, misunderstood attempt at humor. You'd think I'd eventually just give up......but, nooooooooo...I just keep seeking the slings and arrows.

Jim -
I sent a CV last summer when I was still current as a 767 captain. Haven't heard a thing other than the email stating that their interview slots were full.
Now I'm back flying the A320 in daily wonder that my company is still operating. I'll hang here for now. It's fun being in the middle of a miracle watching this place survive despite management's best attempt (still continuing, mind you) to kill it.
