G4 vs F9
Howdy,
Posting this to ask a few questions from the G4 guys really since I don’t personally know any like I do at F9.
I have offers from both companies, and I have a class date sooner with G4 than F9. I could beat a dead horse with base questions and whatnot, but that’s not what I’m particularly interested in.
Are you guys happy at G4?
How is the maintenance? Serious question. I don’t know if the media portrayal was accurate or not but It’d be nice to know how the guys (girls) flying the line feel.
Is safety culture a thing at G4? (Fatigue callouts, Chief Pilot backing you up, etc)
How is the management/pilot relationship?
Do junior line holders get more than minimum days off?
Would you suggest coming here, or would you do something else? Mind you I am a relatively inexperienced pilot and only can choose LCC or stay at my current regional.
Lastly, would you expect growth significant enough for a new hire to see the left seat if they chose to within the next 5 years? (Obviously very opinion based).
My goal is to either be at a place I can happily spend a career at or at least build a good enough resume to be competitive in the event it doesn’t work out. I am moving to base regardless of the company.
Thanks in advance for any insight.
