FE positions

[Movin' on up!]

Anybody know any companies hiring FEs? A friend of mine is trying to get into an FE position with an eventual move to the right seat. Thanks in advance for any info.

Evergreen is, you have to have an A&P. You can move to the right seat after a little while.

Omni is hiring, that is if you can handle the exceptionally lousy schedule & pay.

Kalitta does hire FEs off the street. I think they are going to be hiring a few for a class in October. You can upgrade to the right seat after a year as long as you have 1500 TT (it's really 750 hours because you can could 750 hrs of your FE time towards the 1500 hrs).

Kalitta is making all new hire F.E.s sign an agreement that they will never attempt to upgrade.

GAC, Inc.

Gemini has a really good gig set up for the FE's. Lots of 'em in the right seat of the -11.

Ask Fogrunner, Fedora...

Good luck...

Kalitta is making all new hire F.E.s sign an agreement that they will never attempt to upgrade.

The unions position is that the letter is not valid. The company can not renegotiate the contract with individual members. When their time comes to upgrade, either they will get to upgrade or it will be grieved.

Also, that was prior to the new contract, it's possible that that was company pressure on the part of contract negotiations.

The new contract allows FE's, if they meet the requirements to bid an upgrade based on their seniority.
