I was looking at airlinepilotpay.com the pay explanation is confusing. What airplane are they hiring into? how much can a first year pilot expect to make, with and with out per diem?
I was also wondering what the quality of life is like..... I am hoping better than at a regional!!!
What are you expcted to do when it comes to handling your passengers? Do you make all necessary arrangements for the trip or do you just fly?
What is a typical trip like? Do you have a set schedule?
 
Search button, my friend, search button.
 
yeah,
I tried that and there wasn't a real answer. the search just came back with out any real answer.

In my class, they where hiring for most all planes except the BBJ and 2000ez.

on the 7/7, and contributing 15% to the 401k, take home is around 1200-1300 every other thursday payday.

No commuting, for me. Free medical insurance for me and the family.

The job...
make sure plane is clean and ready to go. You will learn these 3 words "ice/coffee/papers". make sure you have all these plus catering (pax and yours).

Meet and greet the pax. Check Ids. load bags. give a quick brief. Fly.

No flight planning. Everything on the road is taken care of by the company (hotels, cars, limos, catering).

There is no such thing as typical trip. Maybe fly 5 legs one day and sit in the hotel the next day. here is my last week..
day 1...2 pax flights.
day 2...2 pax flights, sit in back for a crew repo.
day 3...never leave hotel.
day 4...airline and rental car...(roadtrip).
day 5...1 flight.
day 6...6 flights (only 2 were pax).
day 7....home by 9am.

Off this week, followed by a week vacation, then take another week off.

Not a bad job. First year pay can be better, but that goes for all seniority based flying jobs.

Does that help.

What aircraft are you on? I will be in the X LAX based and I heard that the schedule in the X is very busy..which is good, I like to keep moving..:)
 
Wacko -- basic First Officer pay is the same in all airplanes, except the BBJ and Falcon 2000EX. You won't see either one as a newhire, nor the G-IV mentioned on APC. The G-IV isn't operated by NJA anyway, but rather by a separate division.

The only one of the smaller fleets that pays a little more is the 560XL, because we have both the 560XL and 560XLS, which we run as a common-crewed fleet. Per our contract, if we're current in two models of aircraft (which these are considered), it's an extra $225/mo for SICs.

The hiring is into pretty much all the airplanes. Which one you're offered depends on which domicile you wanted, and what their staffing needs are at each domicile. (I guess they're trying to have pilots in every fleet in every domicile. Nobody's really figured out the point, since we end up airlining to pick up a plane most times anyway.)

If you're eventually offered a position, they may offer you just one aircraft or a choice of aircraft. The CE-560 Ultra, CE-560 Encore, and BeechJet 400XP don't have APUs; all the other planes do. The Ultra also doesn't have TCAS. So if you're offered something with an APU versus something without, that's an easy choice!

The info on APC is accurate; look at the "BE-400 through DA-2000" column for newhire payscales. "Normal" schedule means 7-on, 7-off. "Reserve" means your days off may float around, but you'll work up to 18 in a month, and bid for 4 hard days off each month (in a row or two pairs of two). There's no "on-call," though -- you'll find out the evening before if/when you're working. It pays quite a bit more, as you see, but it's also hard to predict when you're working. If you want reserve, you can probably hold it, but no guarantees. I got bumped off it; guess some folks had to pay for the holidays!


Hope that answers your questions.

Wacko,
There is really no such thing as a Class IV or V FO. The Falcon EX is a Captain only aircraft, except for the 2 lonely FO's. The BBJ FO's, like the 2 EX FO's, could all be Captains.

Just look at the Class I Reserve or Normal graphs. Much easier. You will be a Captain around the same time you have a chance to bid over to NJI and fly the real airplanes, so that would be dumb.
 
Hello All...

So when one is offered a job at NetJets, they are given domiciles according to what the current company needs are? And then are they assigned in some sort of seniority basis? Is TEB senior? Which aircraft do they base their?
Thanks...

This has been discussed before, so you can use the search function to get more details. Basically, NetJets brings in people for interviews based on each applicant's domicile choice(s) and what openings are currently available. As for TEB being senior, it doesn't work that way. As NetJets determines that it needs more pilots at the different domiciles, they simply interview candidates who are willing to accept the domicile in question. As for the aircraft, they are based everywhere and nowhere in particular.
