Thanks,

National has upgraded FOs in the past and they are starting to Upgrade once again. A handful of FOs are in the process right now.

Hello, I am wondering if you have heard back from the HR lady... I interviewed in April...No feedback yet.
Thanks

I’m gonna have to agree with your assessments, a buddy of mine works for them and is about to leave for corporate flying They regularly schedule 4 or more crew for up to 30 hrs duty at a time to save paying layovers, per dimes,etc. Thier training department is a joke. Do yourself a favor, hang on till at least a half descent opportunity avails itself.

Flying was never about the $$$$ for me. If I had wanted to make money, real money, I would have chosen a different career. Real estate, finance, etc....

Corporate flying is not all it’s cracked up to be either. Some owners are temperamental, cheap & controlling while others are OK. I’m approaching the twilight of a 40 year career fulfilling a childhood dream to fly 747’s all over the world, make some new friends & have some fun along the way.

Do 3 laps around the planet on a 20 day rotation with minimal rest… and then come back and tell us what you think. This is why places can get by with paying bottom dollar for pilots…
