Captain at Planesense needs 1.500
It's obvious that at this hiring environment any company need to hire street captains

I got a call from HR on Wednesday, offering me a slot in the January 3rd class (i'm sure others received a similar call). Being only two weeks away, I denied it and immediately regret my decision. I called back and was able to be moved into the February 14th class however.
Anyone in that class? Haven't seen anyone mention it!

I think morale is fine right now; however, the company is going through changes with the new bases, changing crew schedule, etc. I think our folks will continue to feel uneasy about those changes. The plus side is that our pilot group has a good relationship with management and we continue to make positive additions to our quality of life. Most people leave to advance their career, not because of poor morale.

Do you think they will end up switching from the 8/6 setup or is that being taken ok? Something like 4/3(tradewind) would attract more people with families or other commitments that 8 days out keep you from. Seems like they are filling classes so that won't be a priority. I'm against working for free/cheap, but would take a lower paying/benefits package in exchange for a good schedule.
The schedule is always a topic when we have discussions with mgmt. I doubt we would go to a 4/3. It would be very difficult given the type of operations we do. We have been pushing to return to 7/7. Will that get approved? Who knows.

7/7 Sounds nice. Would be like my old job.

Yeah it sounds like the 8/6 is probably easier for the scheduling dept with pilots commuting and getting repositioned. If the pay keeps going up would be interesting to see if the 121/135s try to offer a good schedule over paying more.
