this message is too short. at least it was until I typed all this crap.

 

[psysicx]

How many of those are based in DFW?

 

[DirtyBeech]

4. 3 are on assigned runs, and the fourth is a spare. another with crew may be arriving from cvg to help with all the specials we run out of sat.

What are there, 8 EMBs in the company, 4 in DFW, a couple in ONT, and a couple in CVG.
I've been told I'm in the next EMB FO class. Originally it looked like I'd be CVG based, but now I'm told Texas or west coast is more likely. Can anyone help me with my speculation?

 

[DirtyBeech]

cvg is losing it's only scheduled e120 run this month. i don't know if they're gonna keep one up there and run it on ad hoc like they do the metros or not. even if they send one to texas it would only be temporary as our need for one should terminate sometime early this summer.

one of the e120 f.o.'s has accpeted a b99 slot in slc, so maybe you were scheduled to replace him. i don't know diddly about the ontario bro's though.

There's currently only one EMB in ONT from what I've heard.

CVG E-120's

There are currently two E-120's in CVG four in Dallas, and one in Ontario. There was an open FO position in CVG until we were give notice on one of our two E-120 runs, which has now ended. One E-120 is currently flying a scheduled DHL run and the other is being used for ad-hoc charters. There was a rumor that the ad-hoc airplane was going to be sent to Dallas however we have been told that for the time being it is staying in CVG.

How long to upgrade from the right seat to the left?

My guess would be atleast 2 years.

Next question?

 

[groundpointsix]

Don't know if people are including it in the CVG count or not, but there is one based at CHO. It goes CHO-LYH-ILN-CHO.

 

[DirtyBeech]

Yeah, that's one of the CVG E120's.

 

[Rogue5]

My guess would be atleast 2 years.

Next question?

Well, if thats the case why not go to SkyWest, get paid more and do it in less time with a better schedule and ability to build more turbine PIC per month once there, plus build seniority towards holding a seat as RJ PIC should you wish?

My $0.02.

Have you seen the pay scale for Ameriflight? After the retention bonus you're looking at 25K for the first year, BE99 capt. pay scale after that. If you're telling me that SKYWEST can beat that, I'm all ears. I like SKYWEST, but not the prospects of flying for "special K" if you know who I'm talking about.

My first yr at SKYW I made $27K on the 120 and didn't even get paid for training. I also was displaced quite a bit for IOE training.
