Usajet Interview

Hi!

USA Jet will be hiring a number of pilots this summer-probably the most they've hired since 1999/2000.

For application details, PM pilotyip.

If you'd like more details on the company, PM me.

probably right..although if you send him a pm, simply state u want to fly till your 90 and 100k is way to much money to pay a pilot...he would love u!!!

I sure did get a chuckle out of that statement. Reading many of yip's posts it is quite fitting.

 

[pilotyip]

thats right pipejockey, I think that is good money, and I bet a lot of guys driving CL-65's would also think it is good money. Plus I want to be the first pilot to to fly under 121 when I am 90.

I can hear the Minister right now, delivering the eulogy...

"Here lies PilotYip, he flew untli he was ninety. We laid him to rest with his false teeth and a case of Depends...He never understood the rules of the game. RIP, PllotYip".

There are rules in this? if so, please list them for my enlightenment

Work the least amount of hours, for the most amount of pay, that will keep employee/employer healthy. Promote harmony with your spouse. Turn off your beeper at least 14 days a month.

Reasonable hrs+reasonable pay+beeper shutoff 14 days=harmony with spouse.

 

[pilotyip]

Close I think

dogfred we are close, The DC-9 guys get slightly over 13 days per month beeper free and many of them make over $100K per and I mean some way way over. Things must not be too bad, which is demonstrated by our low turnover. There is no training contract, few pilots leave, so something must be going the right direction. We may not be up to your standards, but I think we have the best work rules and pay in the on-demand industry. Average pilot is gone from YIP 132 hours per month. Here is great idea, you should go to the capital markets, tell them of your plan to build the workers paradise and then start your airline. Why with your works rules, you will have the pick of the litter, and force everyone to match your standards.

I just might send my stuff in if the pager plays the "empire
theme" and I don't have to give my wife the number! ( Laugh
track now)

1) If you don't know what it is, don't frack with it!
(the following three #'s 2,3 & 4 are for FO's)
2) "Nice landing sir"
3) "It must have been the wind sir"
4) "I'll take the large one sir"
5) What goes up, must come down.

next???

 

[pilotyip]

belchfire: Those are the rules I remember, except I remember it as the "fat one"

Speaking of the rules, I know POI's in the ypsilanti area have been known to somewhat resemble Mr Magoo when came to oversight of their airlines, but how does yours allow the "24 hr" beeper? Aren't your sled dogs-err, pilots allowed at least 8 hrs rest after 16 hrs of beeper duty? Don't you feel they deserve 8 hrs rest? I wonder if your POI's boss in DC knows what's going on?

Hmmm...
