Working for Airnet

[fly4'em]

I was wondering if anyone could tell me if they are hiring at Airnet and what are the minimums they are using right now?

Airnet

Interviewing and Hiring.........135 mins

 

[fizzerpilot23]

Whats the deal with being a SIC for airnet? i saw the mins are like 500 tt and like 100 cc and all that good stuff. Is Airnet willing to take people with low total time and put them right seat in a barron and have them build time till they get their 1200?

They used to do that (with a little closer to the 1200 total) but haven't for a couple of years. I've heard (rumors only) that they might have a couple guys with like 1100 going to do it in the near future. Don't know for sure, its just hear-say.

Airnet would like to interview those who have the 135 mins. but right now supply is limited. So, they are beginning to interview those with as low as say 1000 tt, possibly putting them in a pool till they build the time or throwing them online for a couple of weeks to build the rest of their time. This is all unofficial though.

Anyone know what the deal is with their new online application? It is supposedly done, but I can't get past the log-in screen on my computer. I've got mins now, and would like to re-apply. Should I just email a resume?

Thanks.

Eat.... Call Craig directly and let him know, heck with the whole updating thing online.

Hey starchkr...

Is that new paint job going on all the Lears now?

And how's morale over there? Sounds like pay rules have changed for the worse. Hope it's still a good place to be....

 

[HAZ-MAT]

This is all unofficial though.

It is official.. Call 877AirNet6.. press #4 and listen to the latest hiring update as of august 1st.
Looking for pilots to have atleast 1000TT. Also looking for C601 pilots for Jet Ride.
If your having problems with the online app. Send Craig an email... its all on that recorded message on the hotline. Best of luck.

Would any of you Starcheck pilots happen to know what the time to upgrade to the Lear is running these days?? I know it all depends on if you're willing to move for the slot, so if QOL is of no importance what is currently the quickest upgrade time? Thanks

 

[starchkr]

That is the new paint...at least the cowling...i don't really have a picture of the entire a/c that i like so when i get one i will change it out.

C601 guys huh...hmmmm.....that might be a good one to get into, i sure hope they make the pay go up with that one. They need to put it in TX and i would be all over it if i could hold the SIC spot.

Upgrade to the lears is about a year right now...especially if you are willing to go to the jetride side of things. We recently had a guy get a cargo lear in 13 months...but i believe they are going more like 18-20 months right now. Not too bad considerring some of us waited almost 3 years to get a spot (9/11 and i would not just take the first one to come open). So take that for what it is worth.

 

[wings421]

I'm just starting class for the Lear. Been here a little under 10 months. I ...bid everything though and didn't care where I went. Time from getting the bid to class is 1 1/2 to 2 months. Time to the jet should stay low for about 15 more guys I'd say. I benifited from being at the begining of a hiring spree and right behind a mass exodus for the regionals. I'd say with the 1 year training contract that the guys have to sign now, the time to the jet will go up to about 18 months or so. Who knows though, when I was hired it was 3 years!

 

[starchkr]

Wings, which spot did you get?

My time from bid to class for the lear was 2 weeks...I think i got lucky and they needed to fill a last minute opening. Though, i did hold out for an easy commuteable run from my house. So it took me 3 years to upgrade (8 months of Prop SIC in the beginning, so really only a little over two years), but i did pass up a bunch of jets to get the one i have now.

 

[psysicx]

Why is everyone avoiding the charter side? How much quicker is it to the Lear?

4 lear SIC spots

When I was hired in Jan of this year I was 60 spots away from the lear. So assumeing 1 Sic spot comes open a week that is just over a year. Oh ya this weeks bid sheet has 4 Lear spots open. Life is good.
