Yup, $20.73/hr, no pay in training, no hotel. 75hr/month guarantee, making you a grand total of $18,657 your first year. Enjoy! When I went through a little over three years ago, everyone got free hotels, pay in training, and bonuses for completing IOE and longevity after 6 months. Today? Peanuts and cricket chirping.

It was, is it that way NOW? I don't know. But it would not surprise me.
 
I just got and insurance checked out an a 172 the other day. The instructor was miserable; he would take this job overnight.

Its a poor state of affairs, but the airlines will be dying for pilots soon.
 
No hotel while in training? Make sure you bring a large box or tent to live in while you are there. For meals, will they atleast give you bread and water?
 
Given the part of town they put new hires up in, you might actually be better off getting your own hotel. A hotel stay is probably less than replacing your car after it gets stolen.....

Isn't that all of Memphis?
 
FWIW... the company and ALPA (all 3 MEC's) are working on getting furloughs back to flying first and foremost. Any pilots brought in (whether on a recall list or street) will go through training just as the last class did at 9E(late 2008 I believe) and will be same level or better than Colgan classes ongoing. I have not heard a single word about the hotel or training "allowance" being "yanked". In the event of XJ recalls there are contractual provisions that would kick in as well. If you want to post things otherwise please source it appropriately. There are enough rumors around causing pilot on pilot hatred over NO FACTS.
 
I have one student that was supposed to start class couple years ago and his class was yanked due to economy. I talked to him today and he said no has contacted him regarding a class date.

So is this class just for the Mesaba furloughs?
