Hi all,

Just wondering what you guys at Netjets did prior to starting there?

Is there a type of flying that they "prefer" to see on your CV?

Cheers!

As long as you meet the minimums, that is all that matters.

I've recommended 2500 pilots, and said no to 31,000 hour guys.
 
Ran into some peeps in BWI and said they weren't hiring..Is that true?

Yes, that's true -- we haven't hired in several months now, as the industry has slowed down.


As to the question at hand, I've flown with pilots of pretty much every background imaginable. Ex-regional pilots, retired major airline pilots, pilots of airlines that have gone bust (Emery and Midway, among others), ex-military pilots, and lots of others.
 
What fichman is saying is;

(He is an interviewer)

He has given the "thumbs up" to guys with 2500 hours.

And, given the "thumbs down" to pilots with 31000.


I'm sure it's because he doesn't want to be intimidated by the old guys! :)

So he recommends the ones he thinks he can impress!!!!!!!!!!:)

Sorry man, couldn't resist!

Oh, and get a job as a "hostess", they like that experience these days for some reason.

I.E. When you load a bag, be sure to hold your little finger out to the side".
 
You old guys scare me!!!!!:nuts:


Seriously man, that was the funniest post in a while!!! Cheers man!:beer:

Just to be clear, EJM (Executive Jet Management), and NJA (NetJets Aviation) are separate entities. I can't speak for EJA, but NJA will NOT be hiring for the foreseeable future.

How long is that? No idea.

135 cargo, private 91 flying, super secret government flying, air ambulance, fighter pilots, helo guys, CFI's, you name it.
