Does anyone know anything about this outfit? I am trying to find out some info about this company that fly the Shorts 360's for my girlfriend. Thanks
 
They fly the Shorts on mostly DHL runs across the country. They also run a couple doing on demand work. But they are PFT. Hope this helps.
 
We are no longer PFT.

We do fly DHL cargo along with UPS feeder routes. I believe we have five planes that run into SDF. www.aircar.com I think the route map is rather current.

We are growing rather quickly with more planes coming our way. So, hiring is looking good along with the poss. of hiring Captains.

We also have a charter operation with Shorts and DA20s coming online soon. That is the part that I do (Shorts Charter). I really enjoy working for ACC.

How much time does your GF have? PM me if you want/need anymore info on ACC.

That MYR-CAE run looks nice. How senior is that? What happened to the AVP-MDT run? When your at the "outstation" (on a sked like the MYR-CAE run) with time do they put you in a hotel/crew rest area or do you have to sit around the FBO/Cargo ramp?

Not really a mater of senior or not. Just depends if the FO/Capt is planning on leaving.

I am not sure about that run . But at least with the RDU - CLT or the LRD - AUS you sit in a hotel.

I know for a fact that ACC is no longer PFT. Their current new hire class did not have to pay a dime. they are also looking for street Captains with prior 135 exp. for their next new hire class.

I used to be the CA on the MYR run... It is very sweet, especially ifyou are not interested in building time. I just got bored after awhile.

You show at the airport at 1900, help load about 1-2000 punds of cargo.Fly to CAE (40-50 minutes tops) UPS offloads, and you go to a bunkroomthey have for you there in CAE. You can sleep until about 0430, thenyou go out, UPS loads anywhere from 3-6000 pounds. You fly back to MYR,help the feeder truck driver unload and thats it. Your home by 0700.And the day is yours.

ACC is a good company, and if your at all interested in flying aShorts, we're chomping at the bit for captains. Alot of FO's have beenforgoing upgrade to go to a regional. :rolleyes:
 
Interview

Just wondering if someone who has interviewed with Air Cargo Carriers of late could post your interview experience on aviationinterviews.com or kindly PM me. Thank you for the info.
 
I know it is a three part deal....

First is a written test that is like the instrument written. Then there is a sim eval in a Pcad that is testing your instrument skills. Then an interview.

Sorry I don't have any more info!

I am just gonna take a guess from what I think I know :)

But I would say 60+ a month.

I know the CHO run will time out this year they fly so much. However, the capt there isn't going anywhere.

Do they get jumpseat privileges?
 
We do get to fly on most of the air carriers.

And the HSV to SDF run is a great run also, you get about 2.5-3.0 hours a night and sometimes you get up to 6 if you get sent on a charter.
 
I know they have JS on Skyway before (IND-MKE), And I say if you get past the gate YOU GET A SEAT.
 
Interview sim ride.

For my girlfriend I am trying to help her out with some sim work for an interview, does anyone know what they do, approach, profile etc.

Thanks
 
with me they had me take off from Janesville WI. fly to Madison on airways, shoot a vor approach to a missed and hold. then vectors to an ILS to a full stop landing. They just want to know if you know your proceedures. Also an instrument written 100 questions with some diagrams for holding entrys. everyone was very nice and it seems like a good place to work.

Do you guys know about how many pilots ACC is hiring per month and if their hiring pool is relatively full? I put an app in through their staffCV site about a month ago and haven't heard a word back. Seems like a good outfit, especially if they're still doing street captains. Thanks,

-Eric
 
I think that they are hiring street captains. I don't think they have a hiring pool. you might want to mail them your resume. I walked mine in and herd back from them in about 3 days and was offered an interview

Yea, the best thing to do is mail the resume in, seems to get better responses. This outfit is a good outfit, the main reason I like working here is the aircraft are well taken care of and company atmosphere is good.

where are the bases and what's the capt. pay?

Thanks in advance

The bases are on the site for the scheduled runs but if you do the on demand flying you can live wherever you want to on your time off.
 
Is there anytype of a training contract or pay for training? Also what is the call out time and how many days off per month do you generally get? If you're doing the ondemand stuff how do they get you to the aircraft from your house?
Thanks again.
