You are right, I didn't know about the LOA from last summer.

The domicile situation was a big factor in my choice of not going with NetJets at the time.
 
Is there anything resembling a more senior airplane for new-hires? Lear vs. CL?

What about Int'l flying? on say the Lears versus the CL?

They put you in whatever plane they need people in at that time. Lately its all been 300 and 604 but now, there is a shortage in the 45. You will definitely work more in the 45 fleet. By "more", I mean more legs per day. A challenger might do a dallas-morristown-vegas in a day; Where a 45 might do atlanta-baton rouge-st louis-chicago-nashville-palm beach in a day. Some of you 300 folks might tap in here with more examples but, doing multiple legs in the 45 is WAAY more exhausting in the 45 than it is in a 300 or 604 and, that is the point I'm trying to make. Word right now is that they are hiring 100 pilots which would put us at 450 if no one quits. I think we've lost alot of f/o's since the big hiring spree last february.
 
What does that mean?

I think NJs is the company that "loses" FOs. I know of guys that after being hired and trained, they are "lost" at home for upwards of 6 months (or more).

But back to Flexjet and guys quiting, what about the training contract? Does the company pursue it?
