Do not forget as part of your training you will have to become fork lift qualified.
Everts has taken out the "you will load and unload" of their ads. I am assuming you will still do it.
I talked to a guy recently that was an MD80 Captain but left because of the loading and unloading. It's hard work and can honestly be dangerous.

Someone referred to the loading as the company sponsored exercise program - I like that! Once you've unloaded the aircraft, probably feels good to sit down and relax on the flight deck for the trip home! (But then, I'm an old farmer who always enjoyed getting off the tractor for awhile and doing all the other stuff...)

The crew houses in FAI have individual rooms. Shared bathrooms and shared full kitchen facilities. Both houses are within easy walking distance from the hangar. Everts will provide your class with a shared van so you can go to town (a couple miles) for shopping, etc. If given a choice, I'd opt for the "blue" house over the "brown" house.
If you go up there in the summer, get mosquito repellent.

Really? I can't imagine why there would be that much interest in the FE position on a DC-6 in the year 2016. Exactly how would being a DC-6 FE advance your career with modern airlines. With all the hiring going on, I wonder if they were being a little sarcastic.
