TMA Transmeridian?

Have a buddy going for an interview and need the skinny, I hear they DO NOT ask for you to resign your number, the Chief Pilot is ex-rEAL and real good guy. TMA is looking for 727 and 757 drivers, everyone is back from furlough as they have a tour contract up in SYR that they are gearing up for.

Anyone with info?

Exceptionally LOW PAY.

 

[Extra300S]

Low pay you say?

Have you seen our new UAL payrates?

 

[trainerjet]

I saw on this board $58,000/yr for a 757 Capt. That seems a bit low. How does that compare to your new UAL rates?

Then again, I have learned not to rely on everything I read on this board, but I seem to recall something similar to that posted on climbto350.com.

My wife worked at TMA for 3 days as the tech pubs mgr. before quitting. The list of reasons she quit is too long to inumerate. Basically, though, it comes down to TMA being a p1ss-poor, disgusting operation. But, if you have no self-respect and really need to fly, what the heck. A job is better than no job; no wait, its no job is better than this job...

Tailwinds...

From the "for what it's worth department": a buddy of mine worked for them a couple years back. When ever they put one in for a "C" check, they'd lay off a few pilots till they got the plane back in service. Hopefully they've made some changes since then.
Best regards and Allah akbar,

Does anybody have the name and address to get an app?

I use to work for TMA, and got furlough when finished with training. On the first day you sign a training bond for a year and half worth about 20k. Not very well organize and you will be paid on B scale. The pilots out of my class, most of the class have already left or looking very seriously to finding something else. Think about it

Jimmie,

I heard you had gone to AAI.

Yeah, I wondered about the talk about TMA interviewing, after I'd heard about your and Bruce's experience there.

Good luck to you.
