some questions
Mountain Air is advertising for various positions, couple of questions for anyone who flies for them.
• why is the turnover rate so high?
• what do pilots think about Rob Norton and Air T?
• how is quality of life for the Memphis and/or Kinston ATR slots?
FWIW, word about town says you guys are getting a long-needed pay hike next summer.

Someone PM'd the following info.
Quality of life is very good. You work three on, one off for (one the road) captains. Raise takes effect 05/31/2015. Many work weeks are 4 days T-F, 6 hours per day. Based pilots work 6 days on and 1 off, but have set schedule usually M-F. Attrition is mainly due to training department issues and boredom from not working. Floaters should plan to fly 200 hours per year with majority of time at home. I have no idea about KISO schedule. KMEM is very nice.

Later, applied for a Baltimore 208 captain, got turned down again, and yes have over 600 hours in a 208! Any chance someone at MAC can provide some insight PLEASE!
