Just got a call from them, waiting for director of ops to call....
Anyone know the FO pay? I know captain pay is about 65k (just by what I've read about so far)

Thanks

I was told they would be CASS as soon as they get the 121 cert done. Other then that, I'm searching for more info too

Be very careful. Not sure who told you the PIC pay was 65k. They came after one of our FOs recently and told him they would only do 52K for PICs and 29-33k for SICs. We make quite a bit more than that. You won't be home based from what I can tell (if that's even important) and the "holdings" company, Charter Air Transport has no problem doing business with organizations that break NDAs. Yes, they may get CASS, but they will have no agreements and may not have known crew member. Just be really careful and do you due diligence before accepting.

Just 1 EP rest of them LR and spending a lot of money to correct TSA *****y MX to get them to fly right. Lucky the people in charge want and expect the best of every aspect of the business.
