Air Choice One - Anyone have the G/B/U?
CFI/CFII with about 550 hours who's getting tired of pattern work.
Saw an ad for Air Choice One for FO's out of St. Louis, flying a 208.
Ad says jumpseat privileges and 12 days off a month with 80-120 hours of flying per month. Min is 250, ideal candidate 800.
Sounds a little too good to be true....
Anyone have the skinny?
Thx!

I've only heard about air choice second hand but I do know they have a 2 year training contract that is not pro-rated ($10,000 I think). I know that they will come after you for the money if you leave early (a guy showed up to serve papers to a former air choice one guy in my training class).

I dunno...I know one newer pilot at Lakes who absolutely hates it, and another fairly solid instructor who washed out of training. Anyone have input on Lakes?

Have a few friends that work at Lakes. Lots of flying, long days, not much time off. In other words, pretty crappy quality of life. But, it's multi-engine turbine crew flying in an IFR environment, so it's not bad time, and they'll hire anyone with a pulse and who is trainable.
