skyway

Just want to thank all you guys for all your imput.Propsync, how are ya!!yeah,i used to work with you at FedEx Ground on the blue belt. Its good to hear from you,i looked all over for your email but i think i left it at home. Hows the wx in MKE?When i talked to Stephanie last month,she said that you are still at skyway.Is Rick or Paul still there?For the gentleman that is asking about island hopping,i am flying between the Northern Mariana Islands,way the heck out in the western pacific.The airline that i fly for flies to Guam,Rota,Tinian,and Saipan.I mostly fly back and forth between here(Saipan)and the island of Tinian,which is a 15 minute flight.I fly u.s. mail to guam once a week.Saipan and Guam are about 110 miles from each other.We operate a shorts SD3-60 turboprop(30 seats,Part 121) and 4 cherokee sixes as well as 1 C172.Its a great place to work for if your in a hurry to rack up flight time fast.We are very short on pilots right now and all the pilots are flying 90-120 hours a month.Its Part 135 but VFR only for the cherokee guys.If you have 500 hours,i would look into it if you want to live somewhere warm for a while and hook up with asian women(chinese,japanese,filipinas,Thai chicks,and some koreans)The CNMI(Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands)is just a few hours south of Tokyo,Japan,3 or so more hours east of China and The Phillipines,and 3-4 hours north of Australia.The beaches here are pretty nice,especially in Tinian and Rota and the snorkeling is great.There is also a lot of windsurfing,kite surfing,and once again,a lot of women,there are like 5 chicks for every guy here if not more.There are lots of full nudy bars too with super hot filipina chicks. Northwest and Continental(Air Mike,which is short for Continental Micronesia)fly in and out of Saipan daily,Continental is flying 737-800's and Northwest is operating the 747-200's and 757-200's.JAL (Japan Airlines),Asiana,also operate over here with 747's and 767's.There is one more place i forgot to mention and that is Northwest Airlink,dba Pacific Island Aviation,which flies 3 Shorts SD3-60's between the nearby islands.Saipan is about a 10-12 hour flight from the states and approximately 6 hours west of Hawaii.Some like to refer to Saipan as the poor mans Hawaii.Same weather as Hawaii,but alot smaller,and some things are harder to come by.This place is pretty impressive though for being such a small island.I believe the island is about 20 miles long from North to South,and im guessing 5-7 miles wide.We have movie theatres and just about everything else here,fast food,clubs,lots of hotels,a public library which has internet,car dealerships, and so on.Its a fun place but only for some people.Ive been out here for almost 9 months now.Oh,and for those of you who like gambling,the island of Tinian has a Las Vegas style Casino called "Tinian Dynasty Hotel and Casino" which is really awesome,nuff said.
Later guys,thanks

God forbid anybody get ahead in this world because they started talking to people and made good contacts that helped them out down the road. What right do they have to take jobs away from people too shy or lazy to do the same?

Some of you people need to N-E-T-W-O-R-K. In business (not just aviation), its never what you know, but always who you know. Talk to the bizjet drivers that fly into your airport, go BS with the corporate operators near you, find out where overnighting pilots' hotel is and go drinking with them. Do something, but don't just sit back and complain about people who have a little initiative...
 
Okay boiler, how 'bout hair color
and figure? Is that okay? Are
those acceptable screening
criteria?

Hahaha!!!

FLAMEBAIT!!! I'm going to crawl
back into my bunker now!

P.S. I was going to say something
about starting as a GSA, but you
just picked the wrong airline. At
least you have a good chance now
to start over!

I'm just messin with ya...
I miss it there, especially now that
the pants are getting shorter and
tighter for spring!

INCOMING!!!

I think you haven't paid the dues yet, so just keep banging those chicks until you learn what others had to go through to get to the right seat.

For real: Why on Earth would you want to leave that place? you're not into asian? :D ...kidding... good luck!

A far cry from the WI life dude used to live! After hearing from Migio, I was checking out Marianas at http://www.mymarianas.com/html/display.cfm?sid=1009 and I feel very bad that he's there and I'm not! I can only imagine the bright crispy red sunburn I'd have from being in a tropical paradise!

Minimum flight time for qualification is a bogus term. United used to advertise that 350 hours was all you needed to a real life pilot. How many men do y'all know that got hired in the nineties with less than 3500 hours? Hiring Minimums......more like a guidleline only to be used when an airline wants to put on a uniform facade.
