    Tab Express (Deland, FL) Shuts Down!

    Oh, by the way, if it is proven that T and B were using student training money to finance the acft for the airline they should rot in jail. That is fraud plain and simple. If they sold training and spent the money on 1900's instead of training they're the scum of the earth. I can't possibly...

    airnet bases

    I have a friend (actually my instructor for bfr's and such) who just got hired there. He says bases are assigned as needed based on seniority. I assume that means new hires bid for what the company needs filled based on their number. He said new hires seniority is based on their total time when...

    Tab Express (Deland, FL) Shuts Down!

    research I didn't use this board to find out that the Williams family had bankrupted Airline Aviation Academy and sold it days before it was to be foreclosed. Later became Comair. Then opened ATA and were draining it of all the cash and preparing to walk away with the students money. Nor did...

    Tab Express (Deland, FL) Shuts Down!

    There have been numerous threads about TAB in the last few weeks. In all of them people have basically said STAY AWAY. When a person wants to be an "airline pilot" and they have a lot of pappy's money to spend they just will not take advice.

    Florida jobs

    You weren't specific where on the west coast but Southern Air Systems in Tampa would be a good place to look. They are part 91 management company. Trips are pretty good. They manage three Merlins and several jets. www.southernairsystems.net

    Tab Express (Deland, FL) Shuts Down!

    So a guy comes out to give you an estimate to build you a new deck on your house. He has a nice truck. He has a really good add in the local phone book. He has reference letters from past customers. The price is a little high but he even has a customer in the truck with him who says he is doing...

    Air Cargo Carriers

    If the company wants to hire you they should pay for your training. If you and those like you are willing to pay for the training, deserving pilots who are trying to earn jobs will be passed over for any warm body willing to pony up the twelve thousand. If you do this and people know (people...

    Air Cargo Carriers

    PPPLLLLEEEAAAASSSSEEEE do not do PFT. Please make these guys give you a job and pay you for the training. If you guys keep paying for training and buying seats these companies will never start treating us like professionals. If you don't have enough time for the job instruct or fly pipeline or...

    How much loan is to much loan?

    The problem people have is they borrow all this money based on what they think they can make. You could loose your medical or some other problem could hurt you. My wife and I saved the money to get my ratings through CMEL in cash. We then took out a second mortgage on some rental property we own...

    New to Forum - Training for Regional...

    Only one question. Why would you spend soooo much money to get an interview (not a job just an interview) for a job that pays soooo little?

    $150 per barrel, your opinion of the impact.

    The oil production peaked in 1970 for a lot of reasons. We are no where near out of oil. The oil companies found that it was easier to go overseas for crude than to continue to fight the regulation and environmentalism in this country. There is more oil in Alaska and under the gulf than in the...

    Scenic, Skywest or Pinnacle

    Don't think it'd work to try to commute scenic. F/O's are four on three off You would be wasting day one and day three to commute from ATL. Captains are five on two off so tougher there. Vegas is very cheap to live so the pay would go pretty far for an apartment. The hourly pay for scenic looks...

    Scenic, Skywest or Pinnacle

    OK I wasn't going to weigh in on this but you just make such an easy target. Many smart people couldn't care less about a "seniority number". This industry is in such a tailspin right now no one is safe. A seniority number and a dollar will buy you a nice hot cup of coffee. Now PIC turbine...

    $150 per barrel, your opinion of the impact.

    Yep. Also aren't we supposed to be dead from global warming now? I am old enough to remember the all knowing pointy-headed scientists saying the planet had only 20 years to go and all the life in the oceans was doomed. Sure glad that didn't happen.

    driving records

    Be honest and tell them what you learned from it. You better not have any recent tickets though. More problems after having lost your licence once would not paint a pretty picture. If you have no offenses after the suspense you will probably be ok.
