Kinda steep mins for a C421

Kinda but those GTSIO's don't take inexperience well.

That and insurance companies usually dictate mins. 2000TT seems pretty standard for a big twin like that. But ya, thats not exactly a bullet proof engine.
 
Is the cost of living pretty low down there? Are the benefits paid in full?

Job is still open for anyone with the posted minimums. Anyone with less will not be considered.


Not a good job if you are looking to build time. You may average around 200-250 hours a year. A very easy schedule though. 20 minute call out to the airport, so you are free to do whatever up until you get a call-out. The schedule is written to accommodate company and pilot needs, so it's different every month. There is usually never a problem with getting preferred days off. There is overtime available most months, so the 3000K/mo is just a base. It's rare you will ever work a 14 hour duty day. Maybe once a month. Most shifts end up around 4-6 hours. Everyone at the company is great to work with. No one will ask you to fly over 8 hours or go over a 14 hour duty day or fly a broken airplane (outside the MEL).


As far as the cost of living, it's South Texas. Doesn't get much cheaper than this.
 
is that 20 minutes to the airport? Also do you have scheduled days off? Ya'll got any other aircraft?

Yes, 20 minutes from the time the pager goes off to the time you are at the airport. There isn't much traffic in Corpus, so it's easy.

There are 20 days of scheduled on duty time, so you will get 8-11 hard days off every month depending on how many days there are in the month. Since it's a salary job, you get paid regardless of weather you fly or not.

The company only has C421's and one C414 used for training.
 
Are we on call ER Doctors or Pilots??

20 MINS. TO GET TO THE AIRPORT!! I don't know about you all but my QOL is worth a lot more than 36K/yr if you're going to be staring down at your pager every minute because you think you may have just been beeped?

Where did we go wrong??
