Airnet called!

[Movin' on up!]

Just got the call from Airnet. I am looking for info on the interview, domiciles, pay and all the other goodies. And yes.....I know there is info on certain sites blah blah blah, but all that I have found so far is old and not up-to-date. Any info would be great.

Just curious...how long after you applied did you get the call?

Thanks and best of luck!

Good luck - Matt and Craig are good people. The interview was seriously close to the report on aviationinterviews.com. Company overview by Matt, written test (ATP and instrument questions), Simulator (BE-58 sim - ILS at CMH, some engine out stuff), and then an oral with Craig (get to know you and a few questions about your latest aircraft). They make you feel at home.

I got a phone call (message) from Matt today. I submitted my online application 8 days ago.

I applied last year....then I found out that the internet application never made it through. I then applied again late last year....actually early this year, maybe around January. I was in a hotel room in Denver when I applied, but I have been there quite a bit so I don't recall when in January. I actually read all the company info just in case they called me...but I soon forgot after waiting several months to hear from them. When I got the call this morning, I could not for the life of me answer Craig honestly about how much I knew about the company. Fortunately he didn't mind. Seems pretty straight forward process...the money for the first year PIC is pretty bad....so I have to make some hard choices if I get on.

well, they don't have the SIC position in the props anymore..so just look at the PIC payscale, that is where you would start.

airnet money

I meant to say that I would be making less at airnet than what I am making now. It would work out if for example, I get a base in a state where it is relatively cheap to live. Both my wife and I make a little more than 72k together a year but we barely make it in California. If I move and make only 24k without my wife working, then it would have to be in a pretty cheap state/base. The reason I am doing this is to get the multi and 135 experience to eventually get on an air ambulance outfit. But I still don't know if it would make sense for me to uproot the family and make terribly less. I want my wife to stop working and take care of the little one. I guess I want my cake and eat it too!

On a different note, anybody can give me info on the routes at Airnet. Do you fly somewhere, land and hang out for a while then go back home, or do you fly 3, 4 legs every night?

Movin-up,


If you are living in Cal and making 72k and barely making it, good luck at Airnet. I think you have a spending problem. I live in Cal and make half that and we are ok. You will never make it at Airnet if you can't live on 72k now. Good luck with the job though.
