Avantair called

[haulingthemail]

mine is all 121, and I live in DFW.

 

[glasspilot]

I had nothing but 121 and CFI and I got "the call". However I did have someone walk my resume. The impression I got was they are more interested in the person than what boxes you could check on a resume. I'd say send it in and update regularly. Worst they can do is not call and even then you're no worse off than you are right now.

Good luck.

 

[Mr. Pebbles]

HAHAHA! That was pretty good

Don't you get tired of kissing ass?

I'm not even sure why I read the crap on this web site. All this site seems to be is pilots who need a real job and wishing for a better job they make up rumors and b*llsh*t about great companys like netjets, options and avantair. If you dont work at one of the three.SHUT YOUR MOUTH. you don't know sh*t. Thank you

I disagree, only the ones with the blinders on, or the many managment that swarm any avantair thread that goes on here, don't support that there has been many underhanded dealings and practices at Avantair.

What is surprising is that I'd say 50% of their Mx and mangement staff has recently been "let go" company wide, 17-24 people, and no one seems to give it a second thought.

And immediately following their largest investor pulls out when all prior announcements and projections were that he, his pocketbook , and his growth plans were to be there for the long haul.

Simply amazing...

A total of 9 positions were affected by the recent "right sizing" of the company. Eliminated were 2 positions of company car drivers, 1 position of janitor, 2 positions in the parts department, 2 positions in IT and 2 positions in maintenance. Both maintenance positions were at the supervisory level. No mechanics were let go. There are more than 270 people currently employed.

Shedding excess positions, unnecessary expenses and poor performers, is an expected and necessary part of the corporate growth process.

Corporate investors come and go. That in itself is not always a bad thing. Any opinion making a judgment either way could only be viewed as uninformed.

How that's good info...I was only aware of 1 driver. But hey, I'm not KPIE based so what do I know.

When do the Avanti IIs first come on line? Any estimates? Are Avantair pilots being trained on the new aircraft (ProLine 21 systems training)?

Should be a great airplane!

As far as I know, there are a couple of guys who already did their differences training. But not alot, I'm still wondering as to how they are going to get everyone their differences training...I'm sure they got it all figured out, I'm just gonna sit back and enjoy the ride.

Poor performers? From what I've heard they must have kept the poor performers and "shed" the wrong ones. Ah, but what else would they do?

Thankfully you "shed" yourself for us. Finish your training in the King Air yet?

OOOOH OH SPAGETTIO!!

 

[CherryBomb]

Oh man, here we go again. Lemme grab a cup of coffee and put my feet up...

 

[Mr. Pebbles]

King Air? Sorry, you must have the wrong person in mind. The person you may think I am may be flying a King Air, but not me. And you shouldn't crow- word on the street is that you should be in a 172 as far as skill level. But hey, the world needs 172 drivers too- you can report the traffic so I can make it to work on time.
