I turned down an interview. I'd be taking what would end up being a huge paycut in the near future. Sure it'd be fun flying the bush and a citation but not for that pay rate. Not to mention being gone for 4 days at a time over every weekend. That's junior 121 f/o bs. No set vacation weeks and no travel benefits if you're coming from an airline. Not to mention 10 years is the max it'll be around according to the CP.

Hopefully people keep on turning it down because of the awful pay until they are forced to actually pay something that resembles average for an Ultra.

Ha ha ha ya small piece of the puzzle that was left out until you hit the interview. Glad it's posted now.
How about the runway upkeep and other work.
Yes the pay is basically entry level CFI pay, but I was told the insurance says the pilots must have over 3000 or 4000tt (I can't remember).

If that's true, the CP needs a new insurance ibroker...yesterday. He could probably drop his premiums 10%+ and get much more favorable terms...

Insurance simply is NOT a real obstacle, especially on a small cabin Citation.

Default Look who went to 3rd string

NEW YORK —

Heartland liberal Ed Schultz is losing his prime-time show on MSNBC.

The cable network says Schultz is being moved to the weekends, to host two-hour shows Saturday and Sunday at 5 p.m. EDT. Union advocate Schultz, whose nightly show preceded Rachel Maddow, has increasingly seemed out of place in MSNBC's bookishly liberal lineup.

Schultz will be replaced weeknights by Chris Hayes, whose talk show, "Up," has been a weekend morning mainstay on the MSNBC schedule since 2011. It begins April 1.

Schultz said on his show Wednesday that his new time slot gives him the chance to "get out with the people and tell their stories."

Men,

I have found out today that I have a my first corporate flight interview tomorrow, and I need some help and or pointers.

The interviewee will actually be my copilot on a contract flight tomorrow. It is a single pilot plane though. He just sold his King Air and is in the process of finishing the purchase of a CJ2.

Since I have never had a corporate flight interview I feel like I am going in blind. Not so much on how the interview will go, but what to ask and what/how to negotiate. I don't want to go into the interview naive and think I am getting the best deal. I have read this thread and have looked at the some what questionable NBAA salary survey for a CJ2.

What kind of questions should I ask? The kinds I am thinking of is: Where will the plane be based, how many hours do you expect to fly a year, salary or per trip pay..... Any other questions to ask that would CYA would be nice if anyone has any.

Also how would I go about negotiating pay (salary or per trip)? How about negotiating benefits (vacation, health, vision etc)? Are benefits common in the corporate aviation world?

Any help would be much appreciated!

Thanks.
