FSI, CAE

A contract pilot can get the best rate, $43,000 at CAE.
Do you need a Sim Partner?

Just how much 7X contract work is out there...and how much can one expect to get without any former large-cabin Falcon experience?

$43k is a LOT of money to spend hoping for a payoff...

correct Boilerup, $43K is a lot of money. I hear the daily rate is around $1900, but $43,00 is just too much money. I'd be in a world of hurt if I borrowed that much money and couldn't find any work.

gotta a feeling 7X operators are more concerned about over-water international experience than time in large cabin Falcons...

their is about 18 in the states and 42 tot made so far right now they are billing #43 and 44 i saw it in france at the fac.

Unless something has changed, CAE has the exclusive contract on the 7X at the moment. FSI does not have a 7X sim yet.

Did ATT get rid of their 7X? Its conspicuously missing from that list...

I just met with FSI and they told me they won't have the sim until late 2010 or early 2011.

according to Landings, 900DW is still registered to Falcon Jet, Teterboro
