USA JET Has Mass Layoff

[wmuflyguy]

How many people still out on the street or are they looking to hire?

Hi!

USA Jet has been hiring for about 6? months. Sounds like they are out of the woods, and hopefully will keep improving and fix stuff for the pilots so it was at least as good as before!

2nd MD sounds great! Hope their business plan works great!

is this flying for direct Air out of MYR and how many jets do they have with Direct Air? good to hear someone doing better.

 

[pilotyip]

direct air is part of it, but NCAA Basketball charters was also a big part of it. Plus the usual 3AM call from CYYZ-MMTO-KLRD trip.

maybe you should keep hiring a few more, give us back our full 13 hard days off/month....i had 5 days off last month

pilot morale has never been lower

What is the schedule like?

 

[pilotyip]

none

What is the schedule like?

There is no schedule; it is a non-sked.

So "on-call" ad infinity? No weekends or hard days off?

 

[pilotyip]

days off

So "on-call" ad infinity? No weekends or hard days off?

8-10 days off per month, bad commuter job, for local guys few pilots spend as much time at home as guys living within 20 min drive of KYIP.

pilotyip! I'm really glad to hear you're working there again. Say hi to anyone there that might still remember me.
