Or get hired at Amersitar below their published mins and upgrade a year.

Go to USA Jet is you want to make a carrer out of flying greasy Falcons. Choose Ameristar is you want to put your three years in and move on.

Three year at Amersitar get you two types and 1000 Turbine PIC. Three years at your average regional you will still be in the right seat.
 
Wiggums also just a side note 75% of our career pilots, guys who are in the upper half of the seniority list, over 10 yrs average time with company, bid the scheduled passenger flights in our non-greasy DC-9's. Whatever always keep the greasy side down.
 
We are interviewing to maintain the level of our pool. Due to the looming pilot shortage our pool is evaporating at higher rate than than lst year.
 
Never be a pilot shortage but there is a growing world wide experience shortage.
 
Yikes!!

JACKA$$!!!!! Is this the kind of $hit they are teaching you these days? Your high and mighty because you overspent on your education? I think you'd fit right in over at Grand Aire/Tri-Coastal, give them a call. Its 1-800-SUC-KASS.

The right seat in the DC-9 at USAJ is a career one. 5 yrs to be a 9 Captain if not more.

Falcon Capt, who knows, but there are 2 sides to USAJ. If your a 9 pilot you get better equipment, more days off, better show times and better load pay.

Why doesnt the entire pilot group get 12 days off like the 9 pilots?
 
DA-20 days off.

The DA-20 is a low yield airplane. Right now the DA-10 gets 11 days off per month. To support a 10% increase in DA-20 crews to do the same amount of flying would reduce thin yields even further. 13 days off per month on the DC-9 can normally be bid after one year with the company. Many pilots elect to stay in the DC-9 to get more days off instead of coming back to the DA-20 Cpat's seat and make $15,000 a year more. It is the pilots choice. BTW DC-9 Capt is running about 6.5 years right now, DC-9 Captains don't go anywhere.
