I am highly considering applying to Silver Airways in the very near future as an FO. I was just wanting to get everyone’s thoughts on how everything is with this company; the good, the bad, and the ugly.

What’s the reserve time right now? What’s the junior FO bases? What’s the average upgrade time look like?

I am also intrigued by their Emerging Aviators program since I am planning to get my multi add-on within the next month and then get enough time and experience built up to get my MEI. My question is, where is the funds for this program for the additional certificates or ratings training and the money to help pay for the last 500 hours coming from? Does it come out of the sign on bonus? Is it a loan that we have to pay back? Or is it in addition to the $12k sign on bonus?

Any and all information you can give me about flying for Silver Airways and their Emerging Aviators program is greatly appreciated. Thank you so much for all your help.
