Seniority = is there such a thing at Flex. How many times has the seniority list been redone.

If they offer you the Phenom and you don’t want to fly it, just move on. Excluding the super exclusive Gulfstream and Global fleets, I would be up front about what type you want to fly. Want to fly a CL300/350 or E450/500, tell them. Your employment is a two-way street and, if you are qualified, it is a pilots’ Market. Plenty of great airline and corporate jobs out there paying better than Flexjet. Any job offer is a negotiation and you can always walk if you are not happy with your offer or initial fleet assignment.

The seniority list has been redone once, since the union strong armed the process.
