Yes they are hiring but there is only one person that goes through the applications and from what I heard there are about 1000 applications that have to be processed.

It’s a small company that gets thousands of apps from low time pilots.
I applied 3 months ago and just got that email today lol. FWIW I applied a year ago as well and never received that email. There's an automated email when you apply about "Your App will be sent to Flight Ops Dept" but doesn't mention Chief Pilot. Unless something changed in their system. I have been sending updated resumes and a recruiter replied so maybe I'll get lucky. Not banking on it though.

Doesn't hurt to hustle a bit either. If you see the blue and white N123AF tails on the ramp, go talk to the guys/gals in the blue polos.

Good luck.

For sure and that's a big reason I got the job I have now lol. Had never heard of this company but happened to be at an FBO on business, saw the plane, chatted with the pilot, sent an email, here I am.

Unfortunately we fly midnight cargo to the middle of nowhere so I don't think I've seen the Chronos boys & girls anywhere we go. Not yet anyway.

Company has been great through this process. Really happy this worked out, I'm looking forward to flying here for a good long while.
Congrats Jay - what outfit does PlaneSense use for SIM training?

Currently the simulator training is with Flight Safety, using Plane Sense Instructors and Check Airmen, at DFW and DEN. However by this summer Plane Sense will have their own simulator in TPA. The plan is to move that simulator to PSM when the new Hangar/Training facility is built.

Good to know! Thank you! Hoping to get in the door there some time this year - currently just over 720 hours with a CFI/CFII so the hours are racking up pretty quickly.

No one gets hired into the right seat of the PC-24. Those pilots are current PC-12 Captains whose seniority (currently 3-4 years) allows them to go to SIC of the PC-24.
