Are they still hiring? I don't see a link for a pilot job on flynas.com

A few friends of mine took the job. They were told by NAS staff doing the interview that the pay is really only around $8,000 a month......add to that travel to and from home county, add accommodations, then the whole package is worth between $14,000 & $16,000 a month.....which is what they are advertising. So I am curious who is telling the correct story?

It's 8000 a month base pay, 2222 a month housing allowance, 213 a month transportation... Then on top of that an hourly flight wage.. Different brackets for different hrs. 1-50 hrs.. 50-75 hrs.. Then over 75 hrs.. All different pay scales. 14500 based on 65 hrs

OK guys lets get the story straight! I am in NAS now A320 Skipper!

1. The process takes 3 months is based on the FAA 121.
2. With in the 3 months YOU will prepared for the written test, based on the Gleim 1998.
3. One week of ground school.

10. Very friendly relax environment.
11. Since day one the pressure is on!

Can you explain how it's a relax environment and at the same time, the pressure is on?

FYI. The new training pay is $8000.00 Per month. Start of training thru IOE (on the E190) is about 8 weeks.

Nils is an awesome guy. I know a few people went thru NAS directly, I went thru Sigma Aviation.

I don't think it matters either way.
