Hey everyone. Have an interview next week for a Captain position with Silver. Can anyone shed some light with respect to how many hours a month one can realistically bid, how many days a month etc.

Thanks in advance,

Avrat

What is likelihood of getting FLL?

 

[poor2thecore]

FLL is the most senior base and all the Florida flying is going to Saabs. BIL is the junior base and the trips (all like 8 of them) are day, 2, 3, 4 trips, all commutable on both ends. The lines are anywhere from 78 to 84 hours a month. 11-14 days off. The CP has been saying that anyone hired in the first wave should be on the Saab by the end of the year. I guess the plan is to eventually have 4 sets 1900's in BIL and Ohio then all Saabs in FL. They opened GNV as a maintenance base and it'll become a crew base as well pretty soon. They are short Captains on the 1900 and the next class 2/20 is all street-hire Captains.

What is the word on the street beyond the initial Saab's?

 

[poor2thecore]

Rumor is upwards of 30.
