Does anyone know if IFL out of KPTK still has a 1 hour call out requirement? I live 45 mins from PTK, but if I hit traffic, it's more like an hour drive. I'd be interested in a SIC position with them

Hi threeighteen,
the mileage for flying all 13 of your rotations comes out to just over $40,000 a year. So 125K + 40K + 10K works out to about 175K a year. Let me know if you have anymore questions.

Ah you said $10.8k quarterly not annually. Glad I asked.

We have a CRJ base in PTK (Michigan) as well. TVF is the priority however, so when we are short a crew member there, the on-demand guys in PTK have to cover TVF. In Miami we have ATR's annd Convair 580s/5800s.

Any B727 positions?

My previous PC was 11/2022.

Also, the CRJ is DEC?

Thanks!

Sorry about the confusion. Maybe if I had written "paid out quarterly," it would have been clearer. That being said, I would not have hire anyone without making sure they have a clear understanding of what the pay is, even if you hadn't asked.

To my knowledge nothing on the 727 right now, and I think they don't anticipate hiring for it until January. Yes there is a DEC spot at our TVF base available.

IFL current hiring mins/other info
 
The information on the APC profile page for IFL Group appears to be a bit dated. Is there any chance someone can provide current information on hiring mins, home-basing, or an outlook on FO hiring going into 2024 on any of the airframes? The IFL careers web page does not provide any type of hiring mins for pilot positions. I have sent in a request to the company directly and am waiting to hear back. Thanks in advance!

Any updated info?
 
Hello, any updates on hiring for IFL. I live in Michigan and a guy I work with at the FBO talked about working as an FE on the 727's way back in the day. Is IFL still doing any hiring for the FE positions, I've done the apply online from their website, and will probably call soon to check in as well. I'm currently only Comm ASEL at around 270TT but still flying to build time, and working on Multi and will probably end up doing CFI. From what I've seen, its a lot of rough work, but I'd be willing for the opportunity to get a foot in the door flying cargo.

Transauto 727's toast?
 
FlightRadar24 shows 281FL parked in Hamilton since September, 216WE at YHM two weeks ago and 215WE flying roughly every other day.

I heard K5 was getting rid of their 727's this year but the pair at UJ are still flying, any intel?

Question for Purple Runway guys- are y’all really waiting around for years for FedEx to finally hire again flying feeders when you could be at a regional with a flow or something with a much more promising future? FedEx could possibly be 1000 overstaffed with the loss of the USPS and management seems to think shrinking the airline as much as possible is the best strategy. I truly want to know what’s the vibe at the feeders…

Any news on if IFL will be looking for flight engineers on the 727 in the near future? It sounds like a few of you on this thread work(ed) for IFL, but those posts are a bit old at this point.

I'm currently trying to chart my path from newly-minuted commercial pilot to being paid to fly. When I talked to the person from IFL at Oshkosh this last year, being a flight engineer on the 727 sounded like a really compelling alternative to going the CFI route. I've looked at where/when the 727 flies, so I'm pursuing this eyes-wide-open that the schedule will be lots of nights, but I'm up for it.

I have the chief pilot's email and phone, and I sent an email a while back expressing interest, but I'm waiting to reach out again until I've got my commercial checkride done.
