I was just curious if this was correct.

Our minimum qualifications for the
Cessna 402 First Officer
positions are:
U.S. Commercial Multi-Engine, Instrument Rated License
Current FAA First Class Medical
1,000 Hours Total Time
25 Hours Multi-engine Pilot-in-Command Time (preferred)
250 Hours Cross Country Time
75 Hours Night Flight Time
50 Hours Instrument Time
Ability to work in the United States


1,000 hours to fly a Cessna 402 for $9.00 and hour?

this has to either be wrong or a crime.

Duty hour. They actually do better than a lot of first-year RJ FOs. It's still crap money, but whatever.

It really works out okay, the more you work, the more you earn. I did Mon-Fri 13 hrs a day in the C-402, C-414 E-110, and flew the Boston Globes to ACK in the BE-18 on Sunday for another three hours, if I sat and had hash and eggs for 68 hours.

Do any of you guys know if the minimum is still 1000 hours TT?

first off..... www.flycapeairjobs.com

second....they want higher time FO's for a quick upgrade. Most of the FO's get left seat upon hitting ATP mins.

Although they have been hiring on and off now and in the past, I have not seen them hiring first officers for a LONG time. I don't know if they hire first officers off the street at all any more. I heard they have an arrangement with a school and are getting all of their FOs from that school.
If anyone has different information, I'd love to hear it.

i was offered a job with them a while back with a choice of both ATR and Cessna but later i was told that to call back after logging more multi engine time

Is the ATR pretty senior? I dont think too many people want to live in Guam.
