Griz,

Any idea what aircraft you might fly? Have they given you a choice?

On your Six,


No, I received the call for a interview and current gouge tells me that they ask you at the interview if you have a perference of a/c. Not that your going to get it. But, alot of guys have received what they asked for. You know how that works. I'm just preparing myself for the question, if in fact it is asked.

Thanks

Go for the X if offered. Sure, you'll work a lot as Grizz says, but with your fighter background, you'll appreciate the speed...

Well, if you are going to bid the X based on it's speed, you may be very disappointed. All cats are grey below 10,000' and it's very hard to tell .15 difference in Mach number flying straight and level at FL450. You won't be flying a business jet like a fighter doing loops and barrel roles either. The people who appreciate the speed are the ones in the back paying to get from LAX-IAD in 3+35hrs VS. 5+15hrs. Sorry Heavy, not trying to bash you but the definition of appreciation can vary.

Good point.

Not meant to derail the thread, but....

How does the 'Gateway' system work? Do all new hires have to live near Columbus? Or can anybody live near and fly/work out of any 'gateway'?

Thanks,
RM

RM,


You pick your gateway city at the interview or indoc. Check Netjets.com to see where all their gatways are located. You will either pick-up a plane in your Gateway or you will airline it to the location where your a/c is located.
