People do it. You need some seniority to do it consistently, though.

 

A friend of mine told me Atlas air was going to a job fair. Anyone knows where?

 

Any tips on securing an interview do the FAPA events work well?

 

Worked for me….

 

Any Aussies commuting back home? If so PM. Also anyone have info on US Australia tax treaty how or what Aussies are doing during lodging tax returns. Hiring an accountant or doing it yourself. Any info would be greatly appreciated.

‪June 24-25 - Denver‬
‪FAPA‬

‪June 29 - July 1 - Los Angeles‬
‪Meet & Greet‬

‪July 15 - 17 - Las Vegas‬

Thanks I’ll try one out.

 

Hi fellas, American expat currently working in Ireland operating the 738 (700, 800, 8200). About 1900 TT hours and 1600h on type. Applied for Atlas and got a phone call literally 24h after submitting my application and got an interview date which was strange because I clearly told them that I do not have a FAA ATP (Easa ATPL frozen).

1. Can someone clarify if they offer some sort of ATP-CPT program that they pay for? I've accumulated enough debt, I'm not putting a single dime back into flight training.

2. What's the deal with base preference for new recruits? Any fleet I should consider that is particularly better than the other? If these past years have taught me anything is I'll put quality of life and conditions before my "dream" machine, at this point I could care less if they offer me a flying washing machine if the T&C's are right. My wife and I have struggled enough living on this moss covered rock, therefore someplace warm is what I'm looking for (MIA, LAX, ONT, TPA).

3. For you old timers that have been in the company for a while now what are your thoughts? Are you happy? I am well aware that the perfect company does not exist therefore it would be nice to get some blunt honest feedback.

It's not very difficult finding a company better than mine at the moment but the 5/4 stable roster and being home every night is how they keep us by the balls. Thanks in advance for the replies guys looking forward to some answers.

 

You won't be home every night. Your wife may get sick after the change. Make sure she's got a clear-eyes assessment of what youd be moving into. Just my thoughts, though. I ain't you.

 

Is this pay scale the latest?
