Is there any way to hire in to one of the six figure aircraft in the left seat? New base? Understaffed base without enough Phenom pilots etc?
Thanks,

That two to three year upgrade time still sounds about right when moving from PIC in the 100 to PIC in the 300. Like you said, it's always changing and handled on a case by case basis. Right now, the snapshot of the fleet would place the vast majority of our Fractional aircraft in either Kansas City or Fort Worth (King Air 350's, CJ2's, Phenom 100's & Phenom 300's), with the LR-45's in Buffalo, NY. Our smaller bases, i.e. San Antonio, TX, & Tulsa, OK, we usually have a Phenom 100 and a Phenom 300.
We do hire into the left seat, usually the Phenom 100 and we are accepting resumes for PIC's in the Phenom 100 out of MKC at this point in time.
Hopefully the information is helpful!
Have a good weekend,
Tyler
