FLOPS Domiciles

[E62Pilot]

<div class="bbWrapper">How does the domicile system work there?<br /> <br /> Are you just hired into which ever one the company sees fit or do you get to bid for one or what?<br /> <br /> How likely would it be for a new hire to get BNA?<br /> <br /> Do you have to live with in a certain time of base?<br /> <br /> Thanks for the info.</div>

<div class="bbWrapper">I think someone was hired in BNA, a little bit ago. He was on here asking if anyone else was based in BNA, search and PM him.</div>

<div class="bbWrapper"><b>BNA based..</b><br /> <br /> I&#039;m a new hire that&#039;s based in BNA. If you get called for an interview you can take any tier 1 base, well, any of the ones listed on the web site. I wanted BNA because I live here. There was never any problem me telling them when I applied that I wanted to be based here. Good luck...<br /> <br /> Dime line will appreciate this: if you come over, send in your card <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile :)" data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /></div>

<div class="bbWrapper">Thanks for the info.<br /> <br /> Is there a certain call out, i.e must live within 90 minutes of base or something like that?</div>

That should send a message to potential hires out there. I really think that FLOPS with NJA or near-NJA wages would be a great place - let&#039;s hope management sees the light...</div>

<div class="bbWrapper">From what I gather there is not an official time or distance that you have to live from the airport. As long as you can make your flights your good to go. I believe they give you a two hour callout and your duty time starts 90 mins before the flight leaves. BTW, word is that hiring is going to stop for awhile. That&#039;s what we heard from some of the guys while we were in training....</div>

<div class="bbWrapper">Flydog, thanks for the responses. I am just trying to figure out my options. I live in a suburb of Memphis and about 2.5 hours from BNA. I am about to be furloughed and am hoping to find an gig that will keep me from having to commute, even though 2.5 hours is quite a drive.</div>
