I thought I saw mins at 500/50 but like you've already read. If you dont know anyone or dont have well above the mins then godspeed to ya. But you'll never get a call if you dont apply.

i dont think they were ever that low, 750 and 100 at least. and like he said, thats the min., I would expect them to hire much higher then what is posted with the options they have on the street. BUT, check out lynxpilots.com, you can see the problems and issues at lynx, as there are many. The next class i am not sure of, and I don't think they have one set. The one that starts tomorrow is the one that they were advertising to get people into.

Hey does anyone one know if there are any ex-skyway there. There was a rumor awhile back that our cheif pilot left and went to Big Sky and then went to Lynx. I think also a sim instructor of ours.

How safe is Lynx? With F9 in hot water what would become of them if F9 went Tango-Uniform?

Not trying to flame, just a legit question.

Anything from liquidating the assets to a spin-off is possible.

I can guarantee what will happen is whatever will make the creditors the most money.

Really, how safe any airline is these days...

Do they require you to give up your s/n number?

I hope old GV doesnt end at Lynx and put them out of business, like Skyway/Big Sky.
