Netjets - Does a Second Officer Have A Chance

[iwasmenowhesgon]

I am currently a Second Officer (FLight Engineer) on B727 at Astar Air Cargo. I have not touched flight controls in 6 years. I do not see current flight time as a "pilot" on the min requirements, but does anyone know if that is going to exclude me from getting an interview / hired? I need to know so I can go to plan B, C, or whatever plan I am going to go with.

you need to be current.

Quit you 727 job and take a job flying freight at night....

just wondering 6 years on the panel? Do you have a dui or something?

No, just a sh!tty job. But he does get to tell the bartender that he "flies" a 727.

What about for FAR 142 sim instructor guys? I'm very current in the Hawker (as far as regs go) and maybe fly once per month.

If you're interested in the job, send in a resume via the website and let the recruiters decide. As always, a letter of recommendation is a big plus.

I may very well get booted off this website for this, but Deisel obviously is nothing but a wiseass. I am six years on the panel cause that is how long it takes to upgrade at Astar Air Cargo, which was / is DHL, based on SENIORITY. Maybe you don't know anything about that since it seems you drive trucks, not fly airplanes. In any case, I don't need your smartass remarks. I am asking a simple question. Before you respond with another remark, I make $100 grand a year, work only 14 days a month, have three weeks vacation, all "on the panel". Only reason I am looking into Netjets is to be prepared in case Astar goes away.

It is NOT ********************ty job,. And I don't need to tell a bartender I fly anything. I don't have those kind of immature ego problems.
