Anyone familiar with their flight department around the Twin Cities? Curious about what they fly and if people have enjoyed working for them.

-Thanks

No ads and a vastly greater signal-to-noise ratio than APC.

If you’re seeking a specific bizav job, and/or looking for specific information about a specific operation…a Jackson seems like a small investment for the networking potential.

LOL - you're right, not worth $20 to get some inside scoop on a job / company you're specifically interested in.

Enjoy your industry-discount coffee and the USA Today that somebody left for you in the airport rest room.

i think they fly sovereigns. Use to fly Lear 45’s. I met some pilots years back. Lots of day trips. They said about 3 nights away a month. Flew to the same 15-20 places mostly. Lots of flying back and forth from STP to Centennial. I think they had the other Lear based in Colorado. 6 pilots, 2 mechanics. Pay was about 100k. I’m sure it’s much higher now. This was a good 10-12 years ago. 401k and other perks.

I thought the same thing until that forum landed me my next job. 250% pay increase, half the days of work, a quarter as many nights away from home, and my commute went from 1100 miles to 10. By far the best $20 I've ever spent.

PPW is OK, but if you forget to discontinue your membership you will be charged for a renewal. You will not be notified beforehand like google and countless other companies. They will not reverse it. Its a sly business tactic.
