Got an phone call from them yesterday. I'm familiar with UPS feeder operations which seems to be the bulk of their business. However being from the midwest I'm not familiar with their operations. The idea of living in the mountains appeals to me.

How are their schedules, pay (already looked at this site), MX, management? I'd love to hear from somebody currently flying there.

I don't work there, but know someone who has. First of all, you will not be based in DEN. You will end up in some crap town in NE or KS and fly in to Denver at night, then back out to your base in the morning. My buddy didn't enjoy his time there.

I turned down a metro PIC spot a few months back and I've been furloughed twice this year, I will never be that desperate. Go to ntsb.gov and search aviation accidents , they've put 7 or 8 in the ground over the last 5 or so years. ALOT OF IT IS DUE TO MX so be careful.

Thanks guys. Just weighing the options out there. Not going to take a flying job unless it gives me better QOL than I have/had here.

Thought I'd give a follow up on them:

I returned their call, never heard back from them. Guess they weren't too interested.

I've heard from fellow pilots who are familiar with their operation and they say it a real crap hole from the schedule to mx and of course the training contract is laughable.

I just turned them down this week. Thanks anyway.
