There is some leeway, as I understand it. MAC is actively interviewing C-208 and ATR pilots. Check the web site and send in a CV. You don't apply, you won't get a call.

Yeah, you're right.

What a load of crap! Back your allegations with proof. If what you say were remotely the case, FedEx would remove and resdistrute both ATR and C208 from the MTN Certificate over to Empire, CSA, Wiggins and the others.

What kind of proof would you like?
The FAA had proof and grounded the airplanes.
And Fedex DID redistribute the airplanes.

There's also financial fraud going on.

and yes, if Fedex gets proof of that, they'll shut down the feeder.

Uh yeah.:rolleyes: What kind of proof? Oh I guess tacit proof. Documentation from the FAA, or Fed Ex to substantiate your claim. The usual palabra is rather tiresome... Wouldn't you agree Crimsom?;)

Looks like I hurt your feelings again.

Does anyone know how flexible MAC is on total time for first officers.

Currently flying the C-17 have about 300 hours turbine about 550TT. Currently trying to work on increasing my TT through some deployments and other means.

Also any idea how realistic it would be to attain BUF as a crew base?

There is hiring for BUF as a based position, route goes BUF-EWR five nights a week. As far as hours, you need to meet ATP mins, at least 1500 total time, and they are looking for 500 multi. I am currently working at MAC.

Hope this helps.

§121.436 Pilot Qualification: Certificates and experience requirements.

(a) No certificate holder may use nor may any pilot act as pilot in command of an aircraft (or as second in command of an aircraft in a flag or supplemental operation that requires three or more pilots) unless the pilot:

(1) Holds an airline transport pilot certificate not subject to the limitations in §61.167 of this chapter;

(2) Holds an appropriate aircraft type rating for the aircraft being flown; and

(3) If serving as pilot in command in part 121 operations, has 1,000 hours as second in command in operations under this part, pilot in command in operations under §91.1053(a)(2)(i) of this chapter, pilot in command in operations under §135.243(a)(1) of this chapter, or any combination thereof. For those pilots who are employed as pilot in command in part 121 operations on July 31, 2013, compliance with the requirements of this paragraph (a)(3) is not required.

(b) No certificate holder may use nor may any pilot act as second in command unless the pilot holds an airline transport pilot certificate and an appropriate aircraft type rating for the aircraft being flown. A second-in-command type rating obtained under §61.55 does not satisfy the requirements of this section.

(c) For the purpose of satisfying the flight hour requirement in paragraph (a)(3) of this section, a pilot may credit 500 hours of military flight time obtained as pilot in command of a multiengine turbine-powered, fixed-wing airplane in an operation requiring more than one pilot.

(d) Compliance with the requirements of this section is required by August 1, 2013. However, for those pilots who are employed as second in command in part 121 operations on July 31, 2013, compliance with the type rating requirement in paragraph (b) of this section is not required until January 1, 2016.

Hi there, If you have a minute or two, can you provide details about that buf to ewr route. Show times, ground time in ewr. duty times. Thanks for any reply.

Does anyone have info about the average block time per day for the ATRs? I'm considering throwing in an app for the floater position.

EWR, I spent too much time there. If it's night you'll have it easy in and out, but if during the day, prepare for a delay!
