Mid-Atlantic Needs THREE Pilots Now

[BaronFR8Dog]

I know we have three openings. One in Pasco, WA which flys to Seattle/Boeing. Abiline which flys to Dallas Love and Lansing MI which flys to Detroit. This is a GOOD company which treats you well and has good benefits. Planes are top notch, well maintained and equipped.

Each run overnights in the destination city and pilots stay in a hotel until the next morning when you fly back to the origin city. Expect to fly 600-1000 hours per year depending on the run. All Caravan time.

Pay if fair, $95 per day to start and goes up from there. Benefits after three months. You must sign a 1-year, $4600 training contract and I believe relocation is at your own expense. Get your resume and an enthusiastic cover letter in to Genesa Jackson at [email protected].

This is a GOOD company to work for!

GOOD LUCK!

based on 95 bucks a day... and looking at my run...that would total out to 12,000 a year.

If it were a great company I think they would treat their pilots better than a $25,000. pilot, how does one expect to live on that salary, all of the FedEx feeders start their pilots at a minimum of $125. a day, $33.000. At that salary you don't have to make someone sign a 1 year contract because everyone stays a lot longer than 1 year, if you treat your pilots with respect (a descent salary) they will work harder and want to stay for longer than a year.

Mid Atlantic is a shady operation. I have a friend there and he is not happy there at all. They make him j/s to other locations to fill in for sick calls and vacations. And if your run gets canceled before your one year contract, you are still required to pay them or move your whole family to a different location on your own dime. I would rather do the fedex feeder.

MAF

Mid Atlantic is the worst company I have ever worked for. Their owner Don Godwin is a real scumbag and a homo. The pay crap, and treat their pilots the same way. Stay away like its the plague!

 

[BaronFR8Dog]

SW4, You are full of crap. The ONLY people who cover vacations and sick pilots are the two floaters of which I am one. Why would they take a pilot off a run to cover another pilot leaving HIS run open? Duh! And this company has not had a run cancelled in ages so that is a LIE about losing your job and having to pay your contract out.

Sounds to me like you are a disgruntled ex-pilot fired from MAF who could not hack the job. In fact I think I may know who you are.

It's always "I have a firend...."

Thanks for playing.

BaronFR8Dog,

Does the company encourage you to use jumpseats to position for sick calls?

 

[BaronFR8Dog]

GCD,

Not really. Every time I have had to get somewhere fast they have bought me an airline ticket. We only have jumpseat privelidges with Southwest and they don't fly everywhere we need to go. I've only actually jumpseated once for company business but many more times for personal travel.

Mid-Atlantic is a GOOD place to work! They treat us very well and provide us with newer, SAFE airplanes, very well equipped. When I am in a base city they put me in nice hotels with a rental car and pay for all the gas. If I choose to drive to my assignment, which I do if it's 500 miles or less, they pay the IRS rate of $0.36 per mile. Pay is fair but could definitely be better.

It is illegal to jumpseat for any company business. That sort of thing puts the jumpseat in jeopardy for everyone. Don't do it!! If it is company business, they should buy a ticket, EVERYTIME.
