Captain at Planesense needs 1.500
It's obvious that at this hiring environment any company need to hire street captains

I got a call from HR on Wednesday, offering me a slot in the January 3rd class (i'm sure others received a similar call). Being only two weeks away, I denied it and immediately regret my decision. I called back and was able to be moved into the February 14th class however.
Anyone in that class? Haven't seen anyone mention it!

PC-12?
Direct entry captains are PC-12 only. There are plenty of PC-12 captains waiting in line to fly a jet.

Most people leave to advance their career, not because of poor morale.

I'm against working for free/cheap, but would take a lower paying/benefits package in exchange for a good schedule.
The schedule is always a topic when we have discussions with mgmt. I doubt we would go to a 4/3. It would be very difficult given the type of operations we do. We have been pushing to return to 7/7. Will that get approved? Who knows.
