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?

Majority are happy. No place is perfect, you’ll have issues wherever you go.

How is the maintenance? Serious question.

Serious answer...we all have families and people that we care about. Do you honestly think we would come to work every day if we didn’t feel the airplanes were safe??

Is safety culture a thing at G4? (Fatigue callouts, Chief Pilot backing you up, etc)

Never been pressured to fly anything I didn’t feel fit to do.

How is the management/pilot relationship?

Like most places, some good and some bad. Lots of grievances going on right now with contract violations. That’s the big thing preventing a good relationship.

Do junior line holders get more than minimum days off?

Rarely, but you could during slow months. All reserve lines are built to min days off.

Would you suggest coming here, or would you do something else?

If you want to be home most nights, by all means come here. If you don’t care about that go to F9. You’ll make more money there and likely face a similar career progression path.

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).

Within 5 years is realistic as long as you’re willing to go to any base.
