Whether your home during those 8 days is a crapshoot. We are moving to Tue/Wed start days so that will change how we have operated in the past. As a PSM based pilot I found myself home or on day trips more often. I have also seen other base pilots home during their cycle on an infrequent basis as well.

Sunday premium is ending when we go to new Tue/Wed schedules.

The jet pay scale is appreciably higher than the PC-12 scale. You'll be at the company for a few years before seeing a jet.

Uniforms are provided by the company and they will allow $100 in reimbursed alteration expenses per year.

Just a bit confused...
Is that 10 days off maximum on top of your current 6, or thats 4 additional days? Figured most of this would be interview questions. I just don't want to go in with false hopes and then a year down the line find out theyre not going to let me have a honeymoon. Or go to my wedding.

Is the ending of Sunday Premium pay going to bring an increase to regular pay? Or is it just a tactic to save money overall?

Never expected jet anytime soon. As I mentioned, it would be a determining factor on whether or not I wanted to stay with the company as a career instead of a temporary stepping stone after 2-5 years. If I do make the move to PlaneSense, im not going just to get my hours and bail out. And making much more on the jet side of things would pique my interest into making a lifelong career of the place.
