Beach, you must admit the irony that of your post is all the gateways guys are required to have a degree, have an ATP, and will be evaluated throughout the program, and must meet every qual JetBlue puts out.

By no means am I endorsing this program, I believe blue should offer better compensation to attract better applicants... But we all know JetBlue isnt a company that will do that. We are compensated in culture though..... Right?

 

[BeachBummer]

I know I know... and everyone has to learn somehow. I just thought I was done instructing when I left XJT and the 500hr jet pilots.

I still think we should put a comercial on at 3am somewhere between ShamWOW and that spray sealer stuff.

It seems that job was removed today. They might have put this up by an accident.

And besides, why advertise this on a their career section? This obviously only applies to ERAU type students, and this should be posted on the ERAU career website, or whatever other colleges are participating.

 

[pin727]

yup it was removed.
