One of my professors has talked about this company in one of my classes. He talked to someone that is involved in the start-up of the operation while he was attending some aviation conference. He says that they will be looking to hire airline retirees for their operation. Their minimums will be 7000 turbine time. Their starting pay will be 75,000 per year. Their pilots will work a "normal" schedule that will either be an 8 hour shift morning till afternoon or an 8 hour shift from afternoon to evening. Pilots will be home everynight. My prof claims that the fact that you will be home everynight, working a "normal" schedule, plus the good pay will allow them to pull off the 7000 turbine time requirement. In my opinion, the whole operation sounds too good to be true. (Except the time requirement of course) Only time will tell if they can pull it off.
