QOL ok at Sterling?

 

[ziggy06]

Well, better than at a regional that I had to commute to, I know that much. 6 hard days off, the rest you are on the pager with a 1.5 hr call out. I'll be at home on the pager, instead of a crash pad . . . which means QOL can only be better. I'll get to work on my cars, finish my basement, and MAYBE, just MAYBE get to eat Thanksgiving dinner at home this year.

SC Aviation . . . ?

 

[jafo20]

Anyone here work for Gail Force, when they were still running?

 

[twinbeech]

I didn't, but I went to high school with Mark's little brother Paul. I have also flown with a couple guys at AWAC that used to work there.

I'm from the area, and that sounds like Wisconsin Aviation in the above post. They have three locations, Madison being the largest. They're also at watertown (RYV) and dodge county (UNU). I think they pull most of their charter pilots out of the CFI pool from their flight schools at the previously mentionioned FBO's. ~Beast

Good God, stay away from this place!
I have some inside knowledge of this one. The pilots are treated like crap, you will work 300 days per year. You will fly some real junk and if you are lucky you might touch a turboprop after 5 years (but even that will be a POS). The problem is you will still be flying all of the other junk in the fleet, you never "drop" a fleet. Old Conquest II one day, dead Aztec the next 3 days.
They use a bunch of part timers here and many of them will only fly the "good" trips, so be prepared to fly an Aztec to Bumf*ck, Iowa on a day when someone you never see at work is flying a 414 or jet trip to somewhere nice.
Lots of politics at this place. Many two-faced people in the chain of command. You have been warned.
And, NO, they DO NOT hire their charter pilots from the flight instructor ranks. Only one or two in the last 10 years. The insurance requirements are too high.
