flexjet

[FMR8251]

What is the best way to apply? I don't see it on the website. Thanks.

Hiring has slowed to a crawl, and HR has large stack of resumes, but don't give up. Chief pilot says company needs roughly 4 CL300 fo's per month through all of this and next year (not sure about the other fleets for 09). A handful of Lear guys are moving over, but there will be a need, assuming economy doesn't completely tank. Forget the Bombardier website, only realistic chance for an interview is to have a company pilot walk your resume up to HR, once they begin accepting again, I believe HR asked pilots to hold off for a while till they catch up.

This is true...........we are so short on CL300 fo's and fat on other fleets like the 60 that company actually asked a couple 60 fo's to come over to the 300.
+ we are getting 5 more this year. Some of them are in final checks in BDR if not alreary flying.

Talako - just wonderin'. What does Penske have to do with Flexjet? I thought he was just "all things automotive".

Bombardier and Penske were talking about a buy out, but from what I understand, Bombardier upped the anti on us and Penske walked away. Good thing, I didn't want to fly yellow and black planes.

Then how come I had SEVEN days of home reserve between June 1 and July 15?

Because rather than fly everyone some, the sodomizer is set up to fly the living dog mess out of a few crews and let everyone else do standby or home reserve.

Be thankful! Those are few and far between in my experience.

Is Ont a base a new hire could get? I thought it had been closed for Den?

 

[CL300Pilot]

It is still a base, but no, new hires cannot hire into it.
