They're hiring in Cincinnati, can't find any information on them except their website.
Anyone can provide schedules, pay, general information about qol and how good/bad a gig this is?
Thanks

The cvg thing is going to be future cargo on the 737.

10-11 hard days off a month
44K a yr
8hr per block hr
1.50hr dom 2.85 intl per diem
Limited Jumpseat agreements.
They're finally going to implement a 401K program next year.
No training contract as of now. You're only paid per diem of $67 a day till you start OE.
It's not UA or DL by any means, we have bases as a 121S if you start in your base obviously you're responsible to get yourself there. Otherwise they will airline you from home to do whatever is needed at the moment. Stby days are long call unless otherwise noted.

I guess it will be 2 cargo aircraft on top of our 9 737s for charters. PM if you have any questions

Is the C.P. a nice guy? And what is time to the left seat right now?

Leather jackets and CASS too?

Just met the new chief pilot a couple of weeks ago. He seems like a standup guy who will back you up when needed. Yes, we are in CASS. Our JS coordinator is a good friend of mine and working hard to add more agreements for us. There was talk about leather jackets a few months ago, not sure where we are at with them at this point. As for upgrade time, if you have the quals, and aren't a complete Richard, you should move seats quickly. Keep in mind, this is 121supp. You will be scheduled for 20 days of work each month (sometimes standby at home), and we don't usually see our schedule for the next month until the end of the current month
