I thought it was left as a 135 interpretation for ABC 135 carriers for insurability not mainline. Your ignorance of rules even when present black and white evidence you still can’t let it go.

Screaming? Leftist liberal? What a ridiculous statement. Calm down. The FAA statement is not "fake" either. The letter you gave referenced a 121 carrier where the F.O. was flying with a company check airman. Completely irrelevant.

Don't get all butt hurt with me because you've been filling out your logbook wrong all these years, and yes I am a real pilot. Check Airman in fact. I hope to conduct your next 293 or 299 ride.

Hey join there regional affiliate -problem fixed!!
Some Mainline carriers sold there golden ticket to mainline out in exchange for cheap regional labor.

I know one guy that blew his AA interview and thanks to PSA little flow thru. He works at AA. So YOU ARE WRONG!

Incase you missed it.. YOU ARE WRONG!

Did he blow his interview for falsifying his log book?

Thought not.

Get some anger management counseling. Its becoming obvious why you're career didn't go further than flying for a regional airline, then a King Air.

So as a check airman you have a letter stating if they are type rated they can log PIC if sole manipulator of controls written by FAA lawyers. And you disregard it and then threaten pilots using your status to believe you or suffer a checkride failure is a pretty bold statement on a public forum to suggest.

Survey Say: Your full of S$&T

Actually, the survey says you can't read for comprehension. Obviously a product of American public education. What I said (pay attention now) was that if you got caught lying on a MAJOR airline interview, you weren't going to get called for a second interview at that airline.

Since flow through pilots don't go through the same HR hiring process its not impossible they could slip through.

Do yourself a favor. Hit the library and check out some Bill Peet books.

I threatened no such thing and I have not seen the "letter" you are talking about in any of our company manuals.

Please feel free to forward this Gama specific document, or failing that, have our POI publish said document so we can circulate it amongst the training department.

I won't hold my breath.

Just know that if you ever try to go to anything larger than a King Air for WU you'll be laughed out of the interview with your First Officer 'PIC' time.

Exactly right. Log it separately.

Can anyone confirm if the interview sim evaluation is conducted in a B1900?

Also, is Gama hiring because of the expansion of the business, or because of pilots leaving? Thanks.

They're hiring for both reasons. More aircraft coming online, King Air guys moving over the to XL & the Citation ten, and guys moving on to bigger and better things in general.

There is no sim evaluation anymore. They used to do them in some variation of the King Air but not anymore.

Just for reference:
Did my flight training for both FAA and JAA. When I started logging time in the EU in 2000, I was able to log my first 500hrs SIC, and the first 500hrs SIC with MTOGW over 20K Kgs, and 50% of other SIC time as PIC time towards my required 1500hrs PIC for the purpose of unfreezing my ATPL. I also had to log the Out/In times and the name of the PIC for every leg. Needless to say I rewrote all my logbooks, except the one for my primary training when I came over to the states, logging everything in the right seat until EU upgrade OE was finished as SIC.

Part135 general opsec (EOD, Alternate requirements, takeoff minimum etc. nothing to brain busting).. FaceTime:Skype interview only. Chief Pilot makes determination on DEC slots. It’s more or less do you meet insurance minimum for DEC.

Any systems questions on previous aircraft flown?
