3m?

Regarding the 121 time, the last 3M pilot I spoke with actually came from Comair. No kidding. Granted he flew for the Marines first but he did in fact have a 121 background.

The department has a very strong culture. If your background, personality, skills, or anything else about you does not fit their culture stop dreaming and move on.

Add scratch golfer to the list of quals... the 3M pilots regularly spank all of the other corporate pilots at the Minnesota Corporate Pilots golf outing.

Anyone know how many aircraft / pilots they have?

Are they on pagers? Or do they typically get a roster?
I like the golfing idea, although, don't most pilots suck at golf?

G5/550 pilots at 3M.....thats not the best pay scale by far that I've seen. Do they get stock options every year to make up for the low pay?

Being a former employee of 3m ( sales ) I can tell you the Medical benefits are outstanding..worth about $1500 a month for cobra. They also have a great pension, an employee stock purchase plan, and a matching 401k. Need I say more.
Now add those benefits to the yearly salary and you find its a great paying job!

Last I heard, the next retirement is in 8 years..
Good Luck!
