Pinnacle Questions

[atpcliff]

Hi!

I interviewed with Pinnacle (then Express Airlines I-also known as NW Airlink) in May, 2001.

They are 100% owned by NWA, and NWA was planning on spinning them off like CO did with CoEx, but NWA couldn't get a decent price for the stock, so the spin-off has been delayed indefinitely.

They will fly U in for the interview and to start training.

In training:
No pay
No perdiem
No housing, or extra money to help with living expenses
No ID card (so no jumpseating)
No free/reduced cost passes given out while in training.

I'm not sure if pay, etc. starts after the sim check or after completion of IOE.

I commute on them some, and all of the pilots I've met were friendly and very professional. A lot of them mention that their pay is low. Their CRJs are awesome!

They have hubs in MEM, DTW and MSP. They used to have Saab-340s, but I think they're all gone now.

There was (& I think still is) no sim. All of the people I met in the interview process were freindly and professional.

PCL_128,

Just curious, not trying to pick a fight with you, but why are you anti RJDC? Have you been to their web site?

Yep, I've been to their website many times. Nothing but a bunch of lies and rhetoric. Do a search for my previous posts on the RJDC and you'll see why I have such a disrespect for these guys.

PCL_128,

Fair enough. I read your posts. I was just curious.
