I've had pleanty of friends here that have gone on to good charter jobs, and some to other airlines. Sure, it's not someplace that I want to work indefinately but the flight time I've build here is INCREDIBLE! A lot more fun than most flying jobs, and my pay as a captain is over $30,000 per year with bonusus every 6 mo. Sure sounds like a lot of people who know nothing about this company enjoy talking out their asses!
20 bucks says by now you have been fired or quit or violated.
Anybody considering working for this company.....DON'T!! I watched to many people get fired for nothing. They pencil whip MX inspections, force you to fly in weather conditions not suitable for the Caravan (ask FSU pilot). One CA had smoke in the cockpit, brought it back, told the chief pilot, the next day got smoke in the cockpit again...MX never looked at it. Working here is like handing your certificate to the FAA. Oh and the "CEO" as they call him, is 24 years old and has maybe 1000 hours of flight time and is as dumb as a rock. He was a former ramper at Horizon, hows that for experience in running a company. PM me with any questions. Many law suits pending against them right now too, by former employees.
