Skylease Cargo
 

Friend is very interested and looking for info on quality of life , training, and trips or any other specifics.
Thanx

I asked the same questions to a friend who was talking with them... He told me to run from this place and dont look back. From the little I did get out of him.. sounds like to have ANY QOL you must live in MIA, and even then it was bad. After hearing that and looking at the pay I had enough.
Then again I work for a crappy regional, so how bad can it really be :rolleyes:

I hear its mostly long day trips from MIA.. 18 hour days etc etc etc.

SkyLease Cargo is good old Tradewinds Ailrines with a new name.

They try to hire folks that can not get a job anywhere else, then abuse the sh!t out of
them: 20 hour days. No bunks on the airplane, cockpit jumpseat for crew rest.
Keep guys on the road for their scheduled OFF days, lousy pay, etc, etc.

Good for a stepping-stone job and to get some heavy time..

Not good if you have a family or enjoy life at home.

Anybody know the stats on their Interviewees/New Hires?

Amazingly enough, after all of that, you are still interested ???

Good Luck !

Just curious mostly. My current work conditions, and those of my whole career thusfar for that matter, have at times been worse. That being said, I am familiar with the term "the grass is always greener on the other side", and try to be mindful of it. Ultimately, I would like to get away from these lower tier operators - but I am a terribly curious person. :(

Don't forget the 2 year contract.

Another reason I am curious how they're even getting pilots.

The New C.P.
 

Is from Falcon Air and has a bad reputation. He is one on MIAs elite as is the C.P. of IBC. These two guys are the reason they cannot find crews. You'll just have to trust me on that. They are always advertsing and people come and go quickly after they figure these two guys out.

What does IBT have to say about all of this?
