Whenever there name comes up everybody here seems to jump to there pay for training program. Beleive it or not the are hiring captains and first officers within 100 or so hours of 135 minimums. if you are hired below 135 minimums as a first officer you will fly as a first officer until you have the 135 minimums then they will quickly upgrade you to capatain in either a C- 404 or a navajo. If you have the time they are also hiring street captains for Metroliners.

I am sure you will here everything bad aout them on this site and nothing good. From what I have heard in the past they use to do a lot things wrong. This is why there reputation is so bad. In the last couple of years thety have changed a lot. They finaly realized that the way they were operating would not alow them to grow as a profesional company. Luckily they decided to make changes.

the other thing you will hear a lot about is the schedule and pay. Ill admit at times the schedule sucks but is is freight. MOst freight companies will have similar schedules. As for pay starting off as a captain in as navajo or c 404 you will make more than you would at just about any regional airline. If you start in a metroliner you will make a lot more.
