USA jet

[SquirrelDog]

Heard Ameristar lost or got thier 125 certificate suspended for the 737 - DC-9, know some guys there. Probably going to furlough in near future. Told the pilots they're to fly the lears at .74 and the falcons at .70 to save money.

Grande Aire No Idea, was on there ramp last week and still look like the operating.

Cherry still going, think they furloughed some guys in March.

Xfr8dog ...you might try Kaletta across the field, heard they got Reliants falcons and slowly putting them online.

Please correct me if I am wrong, wouldn't want to spread any bad rumors on here.

The rumor about Kalitta buying Reliants falcons is true. They also pay a flat $250/per week with no milage or hourly extras. The state of Michigan paid (this is 10 months ago when i got furloughed from Reliant) $313/per week. Now the rumor i can throw onto the boards is that Bush raised the maximum to $380/per week, with an extension to 26 weeks to collect. Ill get back to this thread in a week or two to validate this...

I just paid the 36 bucks to apply to USA Jet. Is there a point int he future that an application gets tossed if they arent hiring or is the application on file forever?

Thanks

Hey Checks, I believe there is a hefty pool still. I have been in it since August last year.

 

[Xfr8dog]

I know that the pool is large... i wont toss out a number because it would only be a guess... PilotYip would be able to give you exact figures... in the past two and a half years however the hiring has been approxomately 4 guys in a class and one class every 8-9 months... I was in not the very last class, but the one before it and am now furloughed. Dont hold your breath.

Hey Squirrel Dog:

Your facts are wrong better check with your buddies again.

[SquirrelDog]

maybe!?

Some may be a little skecthy, but which ones are you referring to. Some of these "rumors" have been told to me by several different sources VERY close to the companys (first hand in some cases). I don't like to start rumors but the thread starter or whomever wanted some info on the industry. So if something is not right and You can back up what is wrong please be more specific in your comments. Again this info was given to me voluntary and from several sources I know are good (good friends, management..etc...).

so Loco are you LOCO? (thats german right)
