Nope. However, they pay low as well. This operator has 2 G550s out of SJC.

See what you did there. Very clever. Good place for an "Internship"

The door is revolving there rather quickly lately, they have had 3 pilots leave in the last 8 months due to low pay and serious quality of life issues, 2 of them were there for less than 1.5 years each.

Are those guys not operating out of KNUQ? I recently worked with a guy who did contact work for them on the 767 (which I'm not sure is still operated). He had a NASA badge for entry into Moffett. Pay for that was $3K/day + expenses on corporate cards. Can't imagine the G550 being chump change, unless there's a clear distinction between what was said to be Larry and Sergey's personal operation and a true, dedicated corporate operation for the 550s. My knowledge of the 767 pay rate and a couple of other large jet pay rates out here on the left coast have assisted me tremendously in negotiating compensation for some work I'm getting into. Those in this section who have observed it's a tight-lipped community are spot on, but knowledge is power when you can get it. I think NBAA is comparable to NADA or Kelley "Blue Books," in that the numbers have some basis in fact and certain parties don't want the real "bottom line" to be known. But some insider knowledge can be valuable tool in securing the right deal.

That is a completely different operation called "Blue City Holdings" (it operates the personal aircraft for the founders), they operate some G550s, G650s and the Boeings (until sold). Completely separate from the dedicated Corporate operation for the company which operates 2 older G550s out of KSJC. The corporate operation has had a lot of turnover lately, lost 3 pilots in the last 10 months. Low pay, poor quality of life, lots of extra busy work outside of flying and politics.
