King Airelines

Does anyone currently fly for King, or have flown with them in the past?

I've heard bad things about them but I've also heard there have been some recent changes. I'm just trying to find out more about the operation, ... how is the mx, equipment, is there a contract, etc.

I just saw that they are hiring at 500TT.

You're a CFI, why try to live in vegas for 600/month + tips?

I know a pilot who is a CFI in Vegas and does valet at night.

 

[moving2vegas]

I know a girl in Vegas that does alot more than that at night. Point is, why go to king when you can earn a much better living as a CFI?

 

[psysicx]

I was just agreeing with you.And there are places in Vegas hiring CFI's.Just wait another few months and get on with Scenic.But Valet is a good side job to make money.

You make at least $1100+ in salary and tips can be over $1000/ month. I think it blows a CFI job out of the water. Part 135 Cessna 402 PIC time in just a few months.

I have a bud that worked there...he quit after his third engine failure in the 402. He is now dealing cards at a Casino making way more than he ever did flying for King and a lot happier.

Three engine failures is a little hard to believe. I never heard about them. But I'm not saying it never happened. Your friend should apply to Scenic.

Looks like you need a little more time in your logboook, but Scenic is the better choice. By the way DO NOT send them a resume if you dont have the required time of 600 and 50. The people that take in the resumes throw these away. They feel you are not smart enough to follow instructions if you send in the resume without enough time.
