Need a Trans States Sponsor

[sgaertner]

If anyone at Trans States can help me I would greatly appreciate it.

I am trying to get on with you guys and when you apply through www.airlineapps.com you have to have an email address from a current employee. Unfortunately I don't know anyone there.

I just need one person. If you need more info from me, please don't hesitate to pm me.

I really appreciate it.

If the original TSA is your only option, good luck. I'd highly suggest you take a job at almost any other regional, but you'll get some good experience if you end up at Hulas Air. I unfortunately had nearly 5 years of experience at TSA and can vouch that the scumbag management will screw you as often as possible if given the chance. Good luck in this crazy career.

Why o why.....

 

[flyer172r]

If you really have 1500 hours why on earth would you be applying at TSA? If I was still there I would be doing you a favor by not helping you apply there.

"...that the scumbag management will screw you as often as possible if given the chance. Good luck in this crazy career.

And this is different from any other management group how?

From what I understand, the frequency and ferociousness.

where do I go then? I've got resumes in everywhere and have not gotten any responses, except for one in Alaska that didn't pay for a flight to the interview.
I will take any suggestions you've got

 

[urflyingme?!]

SKYWEST, EXPRESSJET, REPUBLIC PM me

 

[OPECJet]

At 1500 hours, regionals would have you in class yesterday. Something's fishy here....

Why don't you come clean and maybe you can get some actual helpful advice. Do you really have 1500TT? How much multi do you have, 5 Hrs.?? You've left something out there you're not telling us.

gota love it

I love how people beat on TSA so bad. Now I am not going to sit here and tell everyone it is great, but it is not as bad as what people say. Look at GO jet. They get way more abused than TSA. Look at mesa. There are regionals that are worse, there are regionals that are better. Chataqua, skywest, expressjet. Worse, great lakes, PSA, mesa, go jet..

Anyway, my point is all regionals are just that regionals. Find a place that is right for you. The major thing I would look for first is who operates in my town. IE NO COMMUTING. It gets real old. Next I would look at upgrade, followed by pay, and of course work rules / contracts / reputation.

So good luck to all.

There is nothing I'm hiding. I do have 1500 hours. I've got just over 100 multi. I've got the minimums.

I have 1 FAA warning letter with no fines or other actions. I also worked for a small regional from which I resigned during sim training because I fell too far behind and instead of being fired for failing a checkride I decided to resign.

That is the whole story. Any other questions??

 

[sgaertner]

and really, why not TSA. I live close to STL, I've got a house outside ORD, a wife and five (5) kids. I need a job. And yes, I know, first year FO pay and all those kids... well in the past 15 years we've gotten used to Ramen.

 

[Boris Badenov]

I've a very similar background, sg, except I've 3100TT/500 multi. TSA won't call me either. Maybe we're overqualified? I missed the part where you needed a current employee's number, though, perhaps that's where I went wrong?

you sound like that PSA guy

 

[jravi8tor]

if you live so close to o'hare, then i would be applying to other regionals such as republic or skywest whom fly for the united side. at least at these two carriers moral and qol are little better, not to mention pay.

Never been at PSA.

35off, agreed, commuting is always hugely better than not commuting, but if one has to commute I understand TS is non-CASS and non-commutable schedules, right?
