Thanks from the great info!

Is there perdiem and how much! Does crew gets meal during flt?

How about parking at JFK?

What about health benefits?

When you come back to JFK they opviously expect you to go home , or your crashpad, is that correct?

 

[Fly2AK]

per diem is $2.40 and yes you get fed very well during the flt. Health benefits start at day 1 and yes when you get back to JFK you go to the crashpad or hop a flt home if your schedule permits.

You are basically correct. There are a few guys that have been sitting home waiting for IOE. There are two reasons they have been waiting so long. First is that EOS ran one big class rather than two small classes. This caused a log jam when they all got out of the sim. The biggest problem is that the FAA has not been available to give the new LCA their observation flights.They have been waiting months to get them done. The FAA now says they will not be able to do them till January.
They are hiring ten a month. The next class is in January. The Jan class was filled last month. I am sure the Feb class was filled with people from last weeks interviews.

Anybody seen any big job postings to fill the vacancies in the FAA? They must be short-handed or just really F**king lazy!!
We're having the same problem at NAA with one exception of it being sim checkrides. None of the FO's are coming out of training with types like they're suposta because we have no FAA support. Atleast not in the last 3 months.

Will someone please tell me what the difference is between EOS and Skybus? NOTHING!!! Just yet another POS startup carrier paying substandard wages to pilots willing and stupid enough to jump at the opportunity to work below industry average pay....but hey, you get to fly a shiny jet with new paint and NOW, International destinations....WOO HOO!

IMO, I think that ANY pilot willing to work at one of these carriers should be blacklisted FOREVER from EVER gaining work at an ALPA carrier.

An "ALPA" carrier? What does that mean anymore? Last I checked many ALPA carriers don't pay so swell either.

IMO- I work for EOS and they are better than ANY carrier I have worked for and 99% of the guys who work there feel the same way.

Folks we have all types at Eos but we are making it work out, acquiring a/c and routes.

As far as our service NO ONE and I mean NO ONE comes close to our service PERIOD!


And most of us were all ALPA members in goodstanding for many years. ALPA is worthless because of its lack of foresight and leadership from morons like you. No one wants ALPA anywhere near our property.

I can see by your 13 posts and lack of left seat time (sorry cessna's don't count) that you are very experienced. You are the the guy who is flying sideways talking about "in his experience", lol.

Basically STFU! Dumbass.

The average alpa carrier 757 captain tops out at $175/hr, NOT counting beni's. EOS tops out at $122...
