Former AD2 here. I was up at NAS Oceana for 5 years. VF-101, VFA-34 with a med cruise on the GW.

That's what I suspected but wasn't sure. I was a Marine AO MALS guy in Iwakuni and worked mostly in PC and then was a civilian contractor at MCAS Beaufort doing rack shop and CDI stuff... really only did BRU-32s though.

We might know a couple of the same guys but I didn't know too many Navy Ordies.

Who knows what Airlines does PlaneSense use to commute pilots from their crew bases? Are they using multiple Airlines? Thanks

Multiple airlines, depending on your base.

Most likely domiciles?

Any PlanesSense crewmembers have any opinions on which domicile is most likely for a new FO?

Thanks in advance...

You will generally get what you ask for. There aren't any limits per se on what base you want.

New FO's

Kind of low on time: 525 TT, but has 40 hours in PC12/45, Cheyenne II, CE550-SIC with COMM-Instrument: ASEL,AMEL. Graduate with AS in Aviation Science on May 06, 2017. Then probably get CFI/CFII after that. Are these times competitive for PlanesSense?

Thanks again,
