Airnet Hopefull

[MrPink1911]

I got the call today too!!!

Phone interview today, seemed to have gone very well.... I have no regional aspirations, personally would rather fly corporate and when I said so, the guy mentioned JetRide and I told him that I was definitely interested!!! Anyway, all the above posts are right on, I can't think of any additional questions that they left out..... It was a very casual conversation, no tech elements..... Hope I get the next call!!!

They also asked;
What stresses you out?
Do you mind flying a high performance twin, single pilot IFR at night?
Do you have access to a Frasca 142...they recommended 10 hrs prep!
Can we contact your employer?
What is your favorite plane you would like to fly?

Damn they didn't ask me about that. I would have said PC-6 the Pilatus Porter.

Delaying Class Start Date

So here I go again being over confident of myself, assuming I've got the job once I apply.

My spouse and I have been talking about making the move should I get hired and our current lacking of financial preparation. If I just went a head and applied as soon as practicable and I did get hired on to start just before we were financially ready for me to stop working for 6 weeks, would they allow me to defer my class start date to the next class start date? It doesn't sound professional to do it that way, but I just wanted to throw the question out anyway.

Thanks

(P.S. I'm still waiting for a smiley face that's picking its nose at someone)

It's been a while since I went through our hiring process, but I can't imagine it has changed much since then. To answer your question........... go ahead and ask, I would. They want your full attention when you in training and if they have invited you, they must like you.

Hey guys, post here if you get called back for an interview. Seems that we all got the phone interview the same night, so maybe we will all get invited the same night?

135 Min

Maybe I'm still just way too virgin to the industry, but maybe someone can help clear this up for me. I've been going through 135.243(c) as posted in the FAQ on airnet. I've also been reading all the way through the section and here is where my confusion sets in. Is this just their posted Min's or is airnet 135, because reading the section it sounds like it only pertains to passenger carrying operations.

Zues just called and invited me to interview on January 11..... Gonna do some sim prep on 10th..... Best of luck to the rest of you guys!!!

Paragraph A only deals with turbojets and commuter operations. B and C are the minimum PIC requirements for 135, regardless of what's in the back. Airnet is 135, so all of their PICs must comply with paragraph C (assuming all of their operations are IFR).

Congrats!!!!! still hopin they call me here, its been longer than you had to wait though... wonder if thats a bad sign or if im just jumpin the gun.

 

[CDogg]

If you have 750TT they probably will not contact you till you have some more, and update your resume on their site a few times...someone that works there, chime in if i'm wrong.

 

[Flysher]

well not that its a huge difference, but im actually at 820 ish right now. I update every 1 - 2 weeks also. I figure if its anything its that though, my time being to low that is. Oh well all i can do is keep on chuggin!

Great to hear someone got the call. I'm still hopefull. Anyone else?

 

[Flysher]

I got an interview!!!! I called Craig Washka today and asked him how my phone interview went, he put me on hold and came back and said I was on the list to call!! Then i spoke to Bill White for a few minutes and was told I'd receive a phone call today with an interview date, and if I didnt hear from him by 3 to give him a call back.

I will let you guys know when my date is!

 

[MrPink1911]

Congrats Bro..... Maybe I will see you next week!!!

 

[Flysher]

MrPink1911 - I was hopin so too, but Bill White tried his hardest to get me in last minute for monday/tuesday but he couldn't. He called today and said they would like to bring me in for an interview on the 19th of the month. Oh well at least i got a spot and now i have time for preparation!! Let us all know how your face-to-face goes!!

 

[MrPink1911]

i will give you the blow by blow and probably post something on aviationinterviews.com if its something really different than what's posted there already..... i have this interview on wednesday, and then with cape air and airnow next week..... along with studying for atp written, busy times ahead..... wishin' everyone the best of luck, i still believe there is enough work out there for everyone!!!

 

[MrPink1911]

Ok, had the interview today..... could have been better, could have been worse..... go on aviationinterviews.com and the gouge on there is pretty much spot on, vor-a into newark-heath and ils28l at port columbus, ai failure, engine failure both inflight and on take off roll..... the written is pretty easy, some questions are written oddly. the talk with the CP is ok, know the airplane you have been flying, i f-ed up and forgot that the a/c i have been flying had O-360s.... felt sorta like an idiot, brain fart i guess..... but they said i would get a thumbs up or down by the end of the week..... my impression of the operation though was good, super facility in columbus, nice folks, and i could be a place you could make your home for a while rather than a place where you get your time and leave..... hope this helps, good luck to you all!!!
