Hi,
I’m currently in the regionals. I have part 135 king air time and lots of crj time. Unfortunately I’ve applied twice and as luck would have it, I had to say no thanks both times due to unforeseen circumstances (family issues and moved outside of the 100 mile radius for a bit). I now live in Psm and would love to work for Planesense as a captain.
Can anyone give me some advice on how to get an interview? I burned my bridges on the prior applications by having to say no thank you. It was unforeseen bad timing. I’ve had some good life changes and things have smoothed out for me. I’ll be in the PSM area for a very long time as I’ve bought a house. I need the company to know I’m serious and very qualified for the job. I sent in my resume and cover letter last fall and did not get a response. I want to fly out of my hometown, no more commuting. Any advice is appreciated.
Thanks

I worked for Wheels Up. It was ok. The problem is they have yet to make a profit and are discussing ipo options. Could change that place. The Pilatus has always intrigued me. I like the idea that PSM is a base. Therefore some trips may end there without any airlining.

60k 1st year Captain with 18 month mandatory contract. With 2 year 20k optional retention bonus that runs 24 months. 16 year Jet Captain pay tops at 135k. The payscales on airlinepilotcental under Planesense are accurate.

I’m curious if anyone knows if PlaneSense is planning on adding to their current bases? Especially into the western part of the United States or if they will always remain in the eastern half of the US? Will they ever do away with bases & go to home basing?

While the jets allow more Westward travel, 90% of the business is Aspen/Denver East with 85% of that being in the Northeast/East Coast. As far as home basing, there are places 5 times the size that still don't home base. The idea was visited back last year, but logistically and financially didn't make sense to the company to home base its pilots. It would be nice, but just isn't in the cards in the near future. As of now, there are no current shortages of applicants with the current bases.

Could you explain more about what you saying about Denver, please? Maybe it’s because it’s late & I’m tired, but I’m not quite grasping you are saying. Is Denver going to be a base? If so, when? Thanks!
