wiggins needs some caravan pilots.

I'm sure they would find some if the pay was more than 33K, raise it to 50K and a man could put food on the table for his wife and kids.

Hey man, it is what it is.

Its only a Caravan and it is scheduled! A really nice way to get some Turbine experience. I used to work for them. Great experience for the time I was there. Wiggins, as well as many other places are only rungs in the ladder. Besides how much Single Turbine time can anyone want? There was two types of pilots working their, those climbing the ladder, and those winding down into the fall of their careers.

 

[say again]

I have a buddy that works there, and he's perfectly content!!

I know this has been asked here a few times, but I've never seen an answer:

Where are the pilot bases? Does Wiggins hire into bases?

 

[indefinitehold]

They have numerous bases. They cover the north east for Fedex and UPS. As far north to KPQI down to KBWI, and west to KPIT.

They hire where needed. When someone leaves, pillots move around to where they want to be based. All based on senority. Then after the base switching they hire outside. When I was there about 2/3 of the pilots were where they wanted to be.

The bases as I remember:
