Just wondering if anyone knows what the military time conversion is for Netjets and/or flexjet? .2, .3, or nothin'

thanks
 
Netjets 1.2...gave me close to 400 hrs
 
I am looking at an application for NJs. It says, Military may use a 1.2 conversion-eg. Total aircraft time x 1.2
 
Will Netjets allow you to use primary+secondary+other time, then multiply that number by 1.2 to meet the 2500 TT mins?
 
They are looking for total time x 1.2.

I'd be carful using other time. Outside of the military, it's pretty useless.

myself and a couple others took our total military time (primary, secondary, other) times the multiplier... I didn't subtract anything out..
 
As stated above for NJA,

TT x 1.2

Not to shabby considering every other place I applied was .3 or lower.
 
I saw these responses to the same question I had. Does anyone know where it's written, or do I need to call them.
 
from the horses mouth, i was told 1.2 X military time. The individual also said that on occasion they will even use 1.3 to get someone over the mins, but you'd be perfectly safe with 1.2... that's what I used

It used to be on the paper application, if they are still using paper. It was in the notes in the flight time section.
 
It is no longer in the notes anywhere on the app (unless I totally missed it but I doubt that). Everybody I've spoken with online says it's fine. I just added a note stating that I had adjusted my military times by a factor of 1.2 to account for taxi times.

NJA is probably already aware that the mil guys log their times from takeoff to landing. I don't see anything wrong with leveling the playing field with the civ guys who generally go from block out to block in.

I would shy away from using your other time for anything. I don't think NJA is interested in how much time we spend drooling on government issued pillows in the bunk.

Just my .02.

A piece of advice for the interview:

Smile. Big.

Be charming.
 
I wonder if military guys come across as "too stiff" in the interview.

"The best of the best of the best Sir!!! With honors!!! Sir!!!"

I think that telling a good one liner complete with physical comedy should be part of the interview!
 
You've obviously never flown with a military aircrew before.

We're all full of great one-liners and such. Unfortunately, most of them are not appropriate for the civilian office.

You don't want to set us loose at the interview. Tales of tail, shooting our watches down while we tell you about one of our many stories (embellished only slightly), etc. It would get ugly.

But yes, being personable is a good thing in an interview. You are correct on that.
