The Air Group

[cosmotheassman]

Anyone know if they are hiring in the Hawker or anything else?? They emailed me an application package back in October and I filled it out but haven't heard anything yet. Any info would be great!

I don't know what's going on with the Hawkers at the Air Group, but I want to pass along a little additional information. The Air Group is a solid organization and John Winthrop is an amazing guy who does magic things: gets to fly with the Blue Angels, gets his kid a ride up the coast on an aircraft carrier and heads an organization like the Air Group at his age. However, don't expect competitive pay. I interviewed for chief pilot a few years ago and backed away after finding out how little they wanted to pay. It would only be a move up if you were in a fractional.

I seem to remember the company was looking for a Chino-based Hawker pilot about a month or so back. It was the second time I saw the listing and I wonder if they were having a tough time filling the position or if was eventually filled. It's still listed as an opening on their website.

Ever lived in Chino? Maybe that's why they can't fill it...

What about Chino Hills,I heard that was okay.

Yeah if you don't mind the smell of cow manure, Chino is okay. But, when the fog rolls in, the moisture mixes with the cow manure and...it's just not a pretty smell.

Chino Hills is better because the smell doesn't rise up that high - seems to lay low in the valley.

It's a garden spot...here's a graphic showing the area's cottage industry.

That is another big draw. Plus, it's right off the departure end of CNO, so if you have an engine failure in a single, you'll have a bunch of new friends...
