I've been out of the dispatching business for a little over a year now, due to the merger of my previous airline. Having tried some other things to keep the family in one place, I'm finding life outside of the aviation business not much to my liking (I know....it's a disease).
In exploring ways to get back in, weighing all the factors of pay, location, quality of life, stability, etc., and it seems that NetJets may offer the best combination. Although all of my 18 years experience was regional 121 ops, the airline route just seems pathetic as far as decent opportunities these days. I'm somewhat familiar with NetJets' operation, having interviewed and been offered a position back in 2001; but I decided not to uproot the family, as things at the airline were fine at the time, and I was reluctant to give up the perks of seniority.
I'm just looking for as much feedback as I can get (warts and all) on what life is like at NetJets, now that it seems the pilot contract issue is settled; schedules, management, personalities, cost and quality of living in the Columbus area, whatever.
Thanks for your time!
