Relatively new to 121.
Does Compass pay for your medical? whats the process of getting it reimbursed? If they pay, is it set amount per given year? I ask because duration of 1st class differ if the pilot is over 40 vs under.

Thanks

You're on your own for your FAA medical.

Is it still about a 2 week wait for IOE?

I waited about a week and a half. Others in my class about a week

Thanks!

Also, 1st class medical has valid period of 12 months if under 40. Does Compass enforce stricter rule? I ask because I got my 1st class medical 8 months and just want to make sure it's good with Compass.

Thanks!

Compass follows FAA medical guidelines. Under 40, good for 12 months.

I would interpret that as OAL not allowed. Even then all people need to be on the approved ferry permit. If I can get them on the permit then I'd get them on the flight.

You're confusing a ferry flight requiring a ferry permit with a repositioning flight. Regardless, if that person can be approved by the SOC/Flight Ops they can be carried on a ferry flight.

Not to sound harsh but come on guys! Read the FOM! Read the CBA!

Didn't start class yet so don't have either of those.

Again, I know what FAA says and just needed confirmation.

Thanks

Question...
 
First time posting... Be gentle

Ive been reading this thread for a while now. Because of my situation, making a lateral move to CPZ would actually make sense (better qol). The issue with this is that I currently work for one of the sister company and lets say it is not the best one of the three. I am happy here like the flying, like the people but this move would actually make sense.

My question is.... How hard is it to move Between companies? Would I be on a bad standing with my old company? Would they care? Anybody done this move?

Thanks in adavance for all the advice
