Is this a multiple job posting? I fly the GIV but not whirlybirds?

It does not state which aircraft they are hiring into. They are only saying they PREFER if you have experience in a GIV, GV, or S76. Nowhere does it say that is required, though it would be safe to assume they operate one of the aircraft they want experience in.

Whirlybird? What is that? Is that the S76? Is that the cool, old school way of saying Helicopter?

I guess. Sorry, I mean helicopter. Odd job posting though.

Nothing to apoligize for. Never heard it called that, so I was just curious. Good luck, and from your profile, you should put in over at AMEX.

Now does this shirt rotate through the entire flight dept or just the new-hires?
Is there more than one rotating shirt?
Is the shirt the same for fixed-wing and helicopter pilots?

Thanks Hawker, but it's right seat-and I don't even qualify for their credit cards.

Thanks Hawker, but it's right seat-and I don't even qualify for their credit cards.

The CC issue is one thing, but shutting the door on a possible opprotunity because it is for the right seat with a stable company like AMEX, in my opinion, wouldn't be the smartest thing to do. Especially being a female and already qualified in the aircraft. It might be an F/O position on paper, but I am sure they swap seats, and I can't imagine they start anyone there at less than 85K. They are consistantly ranked one of the top 100 companies to work for; that is something to think about.......
