ASA instructors comming back to the line?

[ExHeloGuy]

I heard about 25 instructors have been asked to bid a line in August. Anybody know?

Yep, instructors are COMING back to fly the line. Just flew with two of them.

From company email.
Just wanted to let everyone know that for the August line bid there are going to be several training instructors bidding lines on the CRJ and CR7, so please take that into account as you are bidding as it may change how many bid choices you wish to submit. Following are the number of instructors bidding for lines:

CRJ CA 13
CRJ FO 4
CR7 CA 4
CR7 FO 4

In addition under Flica, there is a spot for COMA lines for september. I guess we can expect that.

 

[Long Time Gone]

Where do you see that at? I can't find it.

 

[DoinTime]

You guys have FOs as instructors?

DT I could've sworn that 9E had an F/O that was doing sim training at one time. I can't remember if that was prohibited in the company check airman handbook (obviously not if this is the case) and can't find mine these days. I know that XJT had some F/O's that were teaching GS.

SkyWest has FO's that do ground school, and some that do FTD. But not Sim. And all the Chief's are Captains.

I don't believe so. Probably spreading the pain to both seats so we don't have too many Captains for the month. Hope that makes sense.

They are going back in September to train all the prop trash on the jet

Didn't SKYW once have a DEN chief that was an FO? (05-06 time frame)

 

[flyinhigh6165]

The instructors are Captains but can sit in the right seat and still get paid captain's pay.

Yes, once they did. He is in another postion now. Good Guy! he is the director of FLT ops now.

Plus when we bid an FO line for the month, we get a better line.
We had a few guys do that, who could not old a line as a CA.

Well now I know why I went down 8 numbers; great.

Hope you bid accordingly! An email from crew planning to ourasa mail explained this, and how many by aircraft type were coming over.
