1st year pay is now around 64k and they have latitude to bump you up to year 3 I think for previous experience.

As mentioned in other places, this is a helicopter company that happens to have some fixed wing aircraft (approximate ratio is 400+ : 35). Initial training is geared towards helicopters with only a few short units, including systems, for the FW guys.

You'll punch a time clock (online), carry W&B and risk assessment done fresh for each leg, and the shifts run 7 x 12 hours. The 14 on / 14 off has been terminated due to CAIMS requirements.

Right now the opportunity for overtime is substantial. Once hired into a base you will be expected to be there for 18 months prior to being eligible to move to another base.

Hope that helps.

Oh, and there's a training contract for the first year.
