World Airways is looking for pilots

[ACL65PILOT]

They were going to hire six. ThE calls went out two days ago. March 7th class from what I have been told.

I didn't see the add for pilots anymore...

FWIW it look like they have been loosing a lot of pilots lately to UPS. Some have left within two years and had to pay back the remainder of the training contract.

Paying off a $48k or less training contract to earn an average of $175k per year as an FO at UPS might be a smart short term sacrifice, although i'm not sure how World wants one to repay their note and over what timeframe etc.

I have no idea either. I bypassed on the class in Jan and did not get a call this time around. When I read the contract it did not stipulate how you were to pay it off.

It's a pro-rated contract... so if they stayed close to 2 years, it will only be a couple thousand dollars to buy out of it.

Good luck to all those that are hired and see you around Fort Delta for your FTD and sim training. I see World guys in the elevator all the time. I got the call for the interview, but am already in class down the street, haha.

ACL65- you got a class date for widgetland yet?

No class date yet.
