Labbats,
Based on the long list of advanced aircraft, your ratings as well as your present position, I would say you're experience level indicates you know what you're talking about. Cleaning the aircraft is an option and one that I choose to do. Obviously, you know nothing about creating a teamwork environment with those you are responsible for. What bothers me is when 1000 hour, flight instructor, know-it-all punks talk as if they even have a clue. With that attitude, you will never make it out of your present position if you choose to do so. At least not at JetBlue.
captb,
Approximately 11G/month plus per diem plus profit sharing plus 401K match. (profit sharing goes into a retirement account mirroring the 401K) That number is based on current Captain pay scales @ 85 hours/month in the A320.
As scheduled, the first class of 190 line pilots should happen in June or July, 2005. I "heard" we have over 9000 applications on file so I expect the time requirements will remain as they currently are. Training is expected to take place in the new MCO facility which is scheduled for completion in mid 2005.

Words of wisdom?
Well I guess that based on you'r SUPERIOR attitude towards a less experienced fellow pilot whom you refer to as PUNK. You'r attitude does reflect the ELITE attitude of a Jet Blew pilot. Keep enjoying the view from you'r high PEDESTAL my friend... The fall from Grace hurts twice as much when you see yourself as invincible.Just remember one thing, and this goes out to all you Jet Blew PUKES.... You'r attitude now will forever follow you throughout you'r carreers... If someday you find yourselves in the job market, It might just be that INSTRUCTOR PUKE who interviews you'r sory BLUE ARSE. It's that hollow feeling of being set for life that detaches an individual from the cruel realities of life.... and thats just my 2 cents....

Hey Biatch,
captb asked a simple question and once again someone's got to chime in on what we may or may not choose to do in our jobs. Labbats' post had nothing to do with the question and was intended as an attack on JetBlue pilots. And yes, I take exception to the fact that this particular CFI (low time, new) takes a shot a something he knows nothing about. So yes, in this case he is a 1000 hour, flight instructor, no-it-all punk. Who the hell said anything about being elite or being on some high pedestal? Is that what you think? Do you really think that all of us feel that we are set for life and have no chance of failure? Not hardly!
So I figure it this way. If I do find myself in the job market and labbats is the one who interviews me, I doubt my attitude will be the thing that gets me turned down. It will be that fact that in my last job, I was a leader who didn't ask anyone else to do something I wasn't willing to do myself. I helped clean the cabin.
I don't have a hollow feeling, I'm not your friend and I really don't think it's anyone's business if I help pick up trash or not. Maybe on my next trip I'll go clean the lav just to piss some of you guys off.
I'm done.

#1 NOBODY, I mean nobody is above helping clean an airplane cabin. The cleaners do it, so why can't a pilot help out? Does a pilot not put their pants on just like a cleaning person? Geez. I'd rather do that than have my friggin dry cleaning done, limos to the hotel, etc. and 2 years later be on furlough.
#2 I don't care how much time someone has, there is no reason to act like you are better than someone with less time.
I am not bashing anyone's comments on this thread. I am just speaking from experience. People get somewhere (mostly with a combination of experience, luck and someone they know) and then they act as if they were always in that spot. "oooh, I am not cleaning that", "That's not my job", "oooh, I have to act like a complete jacka$$ because I was born into this jet left seat" WTF?
I don't have a problem with JetBlue except for the fact that they think that right seat RJ time is more valuable than left seat turboprop time.....WTF?

COMPANY:jetBlueDATE:Jun 11, 2004POSITION:Pilot- A320DESCRIPTION:JetBlue Pilots fly Airbus A320s, which are among the most
sophisticated aircraft in commercial aviation today.
Our Pilots are ultimately responsible for transporting JetBlue
customers to their destination by delivering what has become
known as "The JetBlue Experience".
To be successful, the duties of our crewmembers must be carried
out in accordance with the values on which our company is built;
none more important than that of SAFETY!
JetBlue Airways continues to expand at a steady controlled rate
resulting in a much shorter time to Captain upgrade when
compared with other airlines.
Applicants MUST meet all of the minimum qualifications in order to
be considered for an interview. Our team regularly reviews online
applications and grants interviews on a competitive basis. The
following criteria will be taken into consideration: quality of flight
training; diverse operational experience; quantity of hours flown -
especially as PIC; experience with complex airplanes/systems;
type of operation in which the pilot has recent experience. Jetblue
considers PIC as the person who signed for and is primarily
responsible for the aircraft.
John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK)
Fort Lauderdale, Florida (FLL)
Long Beach, California (LGB)
Competitive hours can be significantly higher depending on the
qualifications of the applicants in our system at any given time. We
are currently seeing the following hours in candidates selected to
interview:
Between 3,000 and 10,000 hours total time in airplanes
2,000 hours turbine PIC in jets
2,000 hours in airplanes over 20,000 lbs mtow
Experience with more sophisticated aircraft utilizing EFIS, FMS
systems
Experience in the A320 family of airplanes (left or right seat)
The current pay system for First Officers is as follows:
$50.96 /hr with a minimum guarantee of 70 hours per month.
$76.44 / hr for all hours flown in excess of 70 hours in that month.
Estimated annual pay based on 81 hours (projected average) per
month would be $52,896.48 (plus per diem of $1.80 / hr)
Training pay is based on $2500./month (lodging is provided at
company cost during initial training)
JetBlue Pilots and their designated dependents receive a
comprehensive benefits and insurance package including major
medical, dental, vision, life insurance and much more.
Space-available pass benefits for JetBlue Crewmembers and their
families on our flights are unlimited.
Minimum Qualification:
FAA Airline Transport Pilot (ATP) Certification.
1500 hours total time in airplanes (excluded: Helo, Sim, F/E time)
1000 hours turbine in airplanes
1000 hours PIC
1000 hours in airplanes equal to or greater than 20,000 pounds
(max take off weight)
Recency of flight experience will be considered.
Current FAA Class 1 Medical Certificate
FCC Radio License
Current Passport
Three reference letters from pilots who can personally attest to the
candidates flying skills (must bring originals to interview)
Vision corrected to 20/20
Legally authorized to work in the U.S.A.
Able to pass a 10-year security background check and a drug test
Also see "Skills" (below)
All applicants must be able to speak, read and write English and
possess excellent communication skills. A working knowledge of
MS Office Suite, Acrobat Reader and the ability to use browsers
effectively are essential elements to the successful completion of
our rigorous training program. Successful candidates embrace the
concept of thinking "outside the box" in order to find ways to
say, "YES" to our customers. You should mentally 'raise the bar' on
your views regarding the airline industry's concept of CRM (Crew
Resource Management). At JetBlue, we refer to CRM as "Company
Resource Management" because company-wide interface is a way
of life for all of our people
