The system was redesigned! Two Jet bases was closed. BOS and PHL. Some runs both prop and jet was closed, but there was also some "new" ones.
The most dramatic impact was the system wide rebid for the pilots. A lot of guys are moving. I suspect some will quit as a result. Next few days will...
AirNet has hiring pool right, now. We had one class start with 6 on the 21st of this month. We are interviewing into that pool. Do not know when we will start another class, I have not doubt that we will start soon.
Getting a floater spot should be relative easy, but you just don't know...
First you will have to fly the props, recently it has been 8-12 months for a SIC LR upgrade. Our industry seem to be tanking out for them moment. I don't know how long it will take. Very little movement at AirNet right now.
Strange times.............
True, but sometimes what our recruitment folks says and what our Training/Flight department offers doesn't always match. We have had some "episodes" lately, but I think they have been straightened out.
Ask about the increased salary package and then get it in writing.
The absolute minimum...
I guess I got the Base wrong. The only prop base left in FL is in FXE. Sorry!
hunt234, you are correct in that do, have and probably will continue to hire directly into bases. I guess what I'm getting at is that it isn't really as simple as it sounds. If you are offered this be carefull in...
Choosing your base is at best a little missleading! This something you would have work out before coming to class and you better get it in writing before attending. You are not going to be able to come in and displace someone from their base/run.
The recruiter I talked to said, that it isn't...
Yes it is fun to fly for AirNet. I think the familiarization flight is something you would be able to do if you are invited to LCK for one of two reasons.
Obviously if you get an interview.
Now there is also a "meet and greet" like session you can participate in. My understanding of it is...
This is true, but right now it seems we have been able to fill some classes and as a result the "pressure", if you will, to fill classes has subsided some and from what I'm hearing there is also pressure from "above" to consentrate on 135 qualified applicants.
Off course that doesn't mean it...
It's not ORD, but MDW. Junior? I don't know, but at the moment there is movement and you should be able to get something you want after 2-4 month's.
As a company yes we still mostly fly at night, a lot of our guys get to go home most mornings, and yes generally you would have weekends off...
Not very realistic! Not to rain on your parade, but there are few hurdles you jump before you even get to picking a base. One you don't meet the 135 mins and as far as I know the last two classes had mostly 135 min guys. If you were hired you would have to ride as an SIC for quite some time and...
I fly regularly into CLT and it seems the worst delays happen on a clear day/night (7-11pm) with absolutely no weather anywhere in sight!
Last night we left the ATL area for CLT. Immediately checking in with ATL CNTR we are told to slow down to our slowest practical speed. Shortly after we are...
Yes, but it got pulled out in around 2000 and so did all of AirNet's prop airplanes. The 310 was retired intirely (from the fleet) about two years ago, I think.
If you have your FAR PIC 135 time and at the end of training express interest in the West coast I don't think it will be much of...
