m3pilot--Did they deceive you when you got hired? If they did, it needs to come out.

As for the duty days, we've all done that kind of time. If any of us want hard duty limits, you got to go Pt. 121.

Sounds like $70k for a SIC is pretty standard in the middle of the country. My sim partner's company paid $90k to start in the GIV but he's in PHL.

Glad you moved up to a better situation.TC

no they didn't deceive me. I just feel that the pay along with other things weren't where they should be. I know that two years ago several companies on the east were paying in the 80's to start.

One man's trash is another man's treasure.

18 hour duty day. Our standard is 14, but it can be extended to 18 with 4 hours of rest in a hotel. It doesn't happen very often, but it isn't that bad. I felt better after that trip than I ever felt after an airline CDO trip.

Next time you want to flame a flight department, you might want to have some facts right or you will look silly - your words there.

It's not an 18 hour day as you should know from the FOM.

Pay is certainly industry standard or better - obviously there are always departments and different regions of the country that have different and higher pay scales.

The 24 hour stand by - there is almost NEVER a pop up trip, but everything scheduled at least 14 days in advance. And you really only sit stand by a few days a month, not such a terrible hardship.

I am certainly glad you left since you were so unhappy. Best of luck to you in the future, "captain."

Any idea how to apply for this position or whom to call. I am from Houston and would love to get back. I like where I live now. However if there is a way to get on with a great company in the town where I grew up, I'd love to apply. Anyone with any info please PM me.
Thanks and Happy New Years y'all.

You guys forgot the twin otter that goes along with the CASA on the north slope.
