Tram,

I suggest emailing directly to HR, or snail mail it in. Think the answers to the questions you seek are found on their website.



cheers

How senior is FAT?

Will they move current pilots from one base to another if a pilot wishes?


Yeah, right!!!!!

Yeah, right!!!!!

I think you may have misunderstood what I was saying..

Let's say a pilot wants to get to HSV and a pilot from HSV is leaving, will they allow someone within the company to bid the spot, before it is given away to a new hire..

I'm not talking "hey, I want hsv, so move people so I can have it..."

what are the monthly flight times for charter during a good/bad charter season? what's that lifestyle like (19 on/9off)??

 

[apu]

Depends on demand. Last month many were getting in the 90 hour range, some more, some less. First part of the year, you were lucky to get more than 15. Lifestyle is what you make it. You could sit in your room watching TV or get out and explore some areas. Just don't wander too far 'cause you might get a trip!

Yeah , I can second that...life on the road is what you make it. And normally who you fly with is what makes it.

If you two get along great then you can have a blast...but if you are opposites and the person doesn't hang out it can dredge on for 19 days....

Some times I swear I had more fun on the road than when I go home

I have been called for an interview there on Oct. 10. Im awaiting for my packet of information but two things. First Im assuming you can get there without paying for a ticket because of the agreements with different carriers. Also, if i got hired when do you think i could expect a groundschool date? Any help is appreciated.

 

[BayAreaCFI]

Well they just called and pushed the date back two weeks. That pretty much sucks that i have to pay for the flight out there, no good.

 

[Feathersword]

Blow me down.... for the life of me I will never understand ye youngsters!!

Me matie is being offered an interview to fly a 26,000lb, twin-engined, multi crewed airplane for better than regional airline wages, WITH 400 HOURS, and the possibility to upgrade around 135 minimums, and is complaining about having to make his was to the interview!! Davey Jones is rolling over in his locker!!

If said knave does get hired, me bets ye will only last 6 to 8 months!!

Shiver me timbers!!

 

[BayAreaCFI]

Don't get me wrong im very greatful for the opportunity but that doesn't change the fact that spending like 280 bucks to get there won't be fun, not too mention that if i get the job ill be spending more money to get back there for groundschool.

 

[BayAreaCFI]

I know, I know, I actually have about 520 now, just a little better. I belive this could be just awsome considering i could upgrade like two years sooner than at an airline.

If you can't find a means to buy that ticket...your going to be flight instructing for a little longer than you may want to.

I can offer you a little advice.

You are making an investment in your self. You do what you have to do buy that ticket. Put it on a credit card. Who cares. So what if your intrest rate is 19 percent it is an investment in your self.

You can pay off that bill in the up coming months.

Or you can save 500 bucks now, flight instruct for lord knows how long with prob no health insurance and no benifits. Or you could miss the chance to make 50K in two years with outstanding benifits for a 135 outfit. Your call.

 

[BayAreaCFI]

I was gonna spend the money but you guys maneged to pull my head out of my rear so i could take a look at the big picture. Now i dont' feel guilty about it at all. And if i get the job i think it will be a damn good picture. Anyways thanks.

 

[OzBushWhacker]

So T-Gates,

Any chance you could look into the crystal ball and tell us when the next class is being run?


Cheers

 

[JetSpeed219]

I got called for an interview as well, mine is on the 28th of October. I have no problem paying my way for it. I only have 400 hours for crying out loud! I'll take this opportunity over flight instructing for the next year hands down...

 

[OzBushWhacker]

Thanx! In the pool and getting a lil pruney!



Prepared to wait tho as it sounds like a good outfit.

I got a call from ACC about 4 months ago but turned the interview down because I had just moved and signed a lease. I'm still very interested in this company but need to save some cash for the family move. Anyway I'm just curious about where most the pilots are going after training as far as getting a scheduled run vrs. charter work? I have a family and I'm not real interested being on the road 19 days however, I would be willing to do it for awhile (6months max) if I could transition to a scheduled run. So is this possible, can you bid a scheduled run from doing charter work and how hard is that to do? I just don't want to get stuck doing something thats not going to work, its enough to have to relocate anywhere in the country to get the job. Last question-How long is the training contract for captain? Thanks alot for any feedback, I currently fly cargo and I think it's the best.

I just got a call last week for the same class. I signed up for the 11th, but then she called back to say they moved back the interview dates. I picked the 24th of Oct. Sounds like a good operation, and I am stoked that anyone would look at a CFI with 650tt. Anyone know of what the starting salary is on average. I would take anything to be flying in a turbine, just trying to brace for impact if the tell me a salary where I will need to get food stamps. On another disclosed website (I am sure they dont appreciate name dropping here), one pilot who was interviewed in early September, said his class date was November 1st. I would expect they would be hiring for that one. But who knows...

 

[Tram]

Wow, you guys are getting called out 650? How are you submitting your resume's and to whom?
