They seem to be a pretty good company. I actually got called by them not to long ago, the guy on the phone was really nice.

Seemed like a decent enough outfit (though I haven't seen many to compare against). They fly a few J-31 out of Republic (FRG). They have contracts with the casinos in Atlantic City (ACY). Basically from what I understand they fly clients down to the casinos (the high rollers). So it's like 30min up and down from FRG to ACY. They also fly to Richmond, VA (I think they have some clients coming in to gamble from there too). The two guys I interviewed with seemed decent chaps. Ex-Indy folks (from before they went down). Did an oral session - nothing too complicated. Then a elite sim ride (on the King Air). I didn't get called back - not sure why, but was told that I was up against better candidates. Oh well - you win some, you lose some. They said they send you to St. Louis (FSI) for the J-31 training. Training contract is one year. Pay was around $25k (for first officer).

Hope that helps.

worked for Empire for two years. Great company, great DO and chief pilot. They fly from FRG to ACY seven days a week and also RIC and ORF about 3 days a week. The owner is one of the nicest guys I have ever worked for. The pay is good for a FO and Capt. If you like to work with great people, have a good schedule and like to gamble then this is a good job for you. I lost alot of money at the casinos and you always think you can get the money back but you never do. If anyone has anymore question send me a message and I will be glad to answer some questions
