A furloughed f/a friend of mine wants to send a resume to Falcon for their Mesa base. I have encouraged her to stay away, but she is adamant. Does anyone have an address where she can send it to?

Falcon Air Express is putting together an initial new hire class with the planned base at Mesa, AZ. There has to be better opportunities with other carriers or corporate operators. Good luck! A review of your resume would indicate that you possess the qualification for direct hire into Falcon Air Express as a Pilot-in-Command. If you elect to enter training at Falcon Air, we will begin your initial training as a Pilot-in-Command. However, your status as Pilot-in-Command or First Officer at the end of training will depend upon Falcon Air’s evaluation of your qualification and performance during training. The Mesa, AZ Base’s primary function is to service Immigration and Customs Enforcement Repatriation Programs. Other charters are flown as well, but the ICE flights are the current primary flying in Mesa. All of which is always subject to change without notice. The fact of the matter is that changes to the changes will probably occur without notice! The time off scheduled may not support commuting pilots. If the position is accepted, Falcon expects that the persons who accept the position will live in the base within 60 days of completing training. This is a position that is subject to the alcohol and drug testing requirements of FAR 120. Successful candidates will be responsible for their own transportation to the Falcon Air Express (FAE) Training Center in Doral, FL. FAE will provide air transportation upon your successful completion of training to OE assignment, and upon completion of OE to the major air carrier scheduled airport nearest your home of record. Falcon Air will advance the accommodations charges at the Extended Stay Inn for the training period. The cost of those accommodations will be repaid to FAE over a ten month period. The hotel charges at the Extended Stay Inn are approximately $62.14, including tax, per day. Should you desire to arrange your own accommodations, at your own expense, that is your choice. Falcon air does not pay salary or per diem during the training period. The training is scheduled for 46 days. We need you on the line as soon as possible, so it is in Falcon Air’s best interest to move the training along. There is no guarantee that the training will be conducted on that schedule, but that is the plan. Most training weeks will be six days. Pay will begin when you begin your operating experience (OE) with the Company. Captain pay is 71.25, with a 60 hour guarantee. The F/O pay to start is 51.30 per hour with a 60 hr guarantee. Per diem is payable at $36.00 per day and is paid for overnight trips where a hotel stay is involved. During day (or night) trips where no overnight hotel stays are utilized do not receive per diem. Falcon Air is also looking to fill the position of Manager of Training. This position is intended as a non-flying position responsible for training within the Company. Falcon Air is also trying to fill a crew instructor position. This person would be responsible for conducting all ground training subjects to crews. The preferred candidate would be one who would also be qualified to instruct in the simulator. When not actively engaged in training, he would be responsible for improving training aids and materials and acting as a Subject Matter Expert on the MD-80. If you are qualified and interested in such a position, please respond to XXX XXX and you will be sent a more complete description of the position. XXX XXXX Manager of Flight Standards Falcon Air Express Doral, Florida |

I hope there are no chaps willing to fund FAE's training costs just to get a left seat position. Those who do need to be included in a special list of SHAME!:(

"*Flights are Public Charters operated by Xtra Airways and Sky King." Direct Air is a broker... Dynamic is a different "airline" all together... |
