Cape Air question...

[flydaddy0499]

Does anyone know if Cape Air will hire with only ATP written (which I have completed) or must you have the rating?

Thinking about applying.

Thanks,

You need a ATP because it is a scheduled airline operation which requires a ATP and first class etc.

I have a 1st class med, will they not give you an ATP checkride in training?

With your time most places will question why a professional pilot with 2500 hours does not yet have an ATP (Assuming that you are 23 or older)

They only peeps that I have ever seen get hired at an airline without an ATP were mostly women. (No social commentary, just what I have seen.)

Go ahead and knock the ATP out at a weekend course and solve your problem.

Jeez, you guys are brutal.



In the past, they have hired folks with their ATP written and the required time, and asked nicely for 1 year of service in exchange for your ATP checkride, allowing you to fly the line.

With everyone bailing for the regionals and such these days this might be a possibility.

I was called for an interview with no ATP last March.

Hope this helps, they are a great bunch of dudes and gals.
