Avantair

[Takeoffroll]

Does Avantair require that you live at your crew base ? - 2 hours from gateway

do you have jumpseat privileges ? - no written agreement, i have heard there are some carriers that will allow you to fly with a 135 badge.

what is the schedule like at avantair ? - currently hiring pilots to get to a 7 & 7 sometime in the fall. right now it is 7.5 on 9 days available and 5 hard days off each week.

airlinepilotcentral.com has a page with some details on it.

as long is it is one of the open gateways, and Florida, ATL and RNO are the only ones closed at this time according to my sources.

Is an ATP a must to interview even if you have more than enough for the other requirements?

As far as I know, they want the ATP.....they pretty much want captain ready individuals. But hey, call them and ask

 

[clambdin]

When you show for duty at the gateway do you operate daily from there or are you gone on a tour like nja ? Thank`s Takeoffroll for your answers !

You'll be gone for between 7 and 9 days.

I have been trying to open Avantair website with no success, Does anyone have their contact info ? How hard are their posted mins ?

 

[celloman]

From what I hear the ATP is required. On the other hand here I sit working for Avantair with out it yet.

As for the mins, they are hard. Most of the people getting hired have WELL over the listed mins.

The only way to submit and contact Avantair with a resume if via a pilot who works here or [email protected]

Best of Luck,

I know a couple of guys that work at avantair without the ATP. But they were hired at avantair prior to the new pilot mins.....now you need the ATP, avantair is beeing much more selective with their new hires.

Perhaps they're trying to weed out the goofy forigners with quotes like, "Dark Lord of the Sith".



Just kidding. Couldn't resist.

There are many FO's here who don't have their ATP, but they can't upgrade until they have their ATP in hand.
