flyr4hire said:I thought so. I was there 12/01-12/04 in the BJ so wouldn't have had the pleasure of crewin' with you. Lots of bubbas from FLOPS leaving now, any more make it your way? Sounds like Gemini shying away from those w/o big jet time... that's a shame but I guess its all about return on investment and cutting ones losses. Know a CIII guy (FMOO) who just got on with CAL... know him? I guess there's hope for frac pilots after all.
Yes I know Fred.
The latest FLOPs guy to be hired was in the July class. I think he just completed IOE. Since September 04 Gemini has hired 6 Options guys. 5 are still here. 1 guy didn't make it through training.
I don't agree with you about the big jet time comment. I know there is a F27 guy in the Sept 05 class. That is a mighty big jump, but not impossible. The last 2 guys to not make it through training had over 5000hrs and multiple jet types.
