A friend of mine forwarded this email he recieved from a PFT outfit. I was shocked what I read! An utter disgrace to our profession!
Thank you for your interest in our MD-80 crewmember posting. Falcon Air Express has requested that we identify and train qualified candidates for possible positions as First Officers on the MD-80. Based on a review of your resume, we have determined that you do qualify for this program. Below you will find a description of how this program works.
As stated above, Aeroservice identifies potential candidates for this program. Candidates are then “Pre-Qualified” with Falcon Air Express. If you are “Pre-Qualified” you may enroll into the program. Candidates are responsible for their own training costs as well as the costs associated with your fingerprinting, background and other necessary checks.
Class will begin on Friday May 6th.
This program is divided into two phases. The first phase consists of your Background check, Ground School and the Oral on the MD-80. If your performance in Phase 1 is satisfactory you will be given an interim interview. Assuming that everything goes well in this phase you will then begin phase 2 which will consist of the remainder of the training.
The tuition for Phase 1 is $2,000.00 plus the cost of the required background check and drug testing.
The tuition for Phase 2 is $9,600.00
The program details are as follows:
MD-80 Type Rating Course
80 hours ground school
16 hours CPT (part of ground school)
15 hours Level “C” simulator training
2 hours pre oral
1 hour oral
3 hours checkride
Course manuals
Tuition Investment: $11,600
Success in this program is solely based on your performance during the course and during the final interview. Enrolling in this program does not guarantee you employment with Falcon Air Express. Over the duration of the course you will be evaluated and will be granted a final interview once your type rating checkride has been completed. If the outcome of your interview is not satisfactory you will be placed into a pool for either future consideration by Falcon Air Express or one of our other MD-80 customers.
This is an FAR 121 course and you will be considered a “non-compensated” employee of Falcon Air Express for the duration of your training. As a “non-compensated” employee of Falcon Air Express you are not entitled to any of the employee benefits offered by the company. You are considered an enrolled student of Aeroservice Aviation Center and your enrollment agreement will be between you and Aeroservice Aviation Center.
Attached please find the enrollment form for Aeroservice as well as the Credit Card Authorization form. Please complete the enrollment form and return it to me along with a copy of your pilot certificates, medical and passport or drivers license. Once I receive your enrollment form along with your tuition deposit of $1,500, I will reserve your seat in the class, schedule your program and send you the course manuals.

Once you have made your travel plans please let me know the date and the hotel that you have selected. Once I receive this information we will make your hotel reservations for you.
If you would like to verify any of the information in this letter please feel free to contact Capt. Juan Paz at Falcon Air Express at: (305) 592-5672 x 123.
Should you have any questions or need any additional information, please contact me directly at (800) 752-7467, (305) 871-5557 or via e-mail at: [email protected].
