Default Flexjet Military time conversion

Is there any conversion factor for military time? I've looked at the App and didn't see it. I'm currently at 2350 and would like to apply now. By the time I can get out this Summer, I should have 2500 total.

Thanks,

AggiePilot

NetJets' military conversion is 1.2 X flight time.

Thanks Qpilot.

Anyone know whether or not Flexjet (a different company than NetJets, which is in fact why they are called Flexjet and not NetJets) applies a military time conversion?

Well Citation Shares does not do any conversion for military guys....

Sorry man, had too....

your post was one of the funniest I read all day....

As far as Flex goes I don't know, but you mention having over 2500 by the time you get out anyway, so why are you worried? Or are you just wanting to pad the numbers above mins?

Do the conversions include sim hours? As I understand this, they allow conversions because of the taxi and standby times. Also, can you convert all applicable times(PIC, Multi-engine and turbine times) or just TT? Are you all including sim time in TT? Sorry for all the questions, I'm scraping by trying to meet mins!

Thanks,
JT

Too Shay, QPilot. That's Francetalk for "Good One" or "You got me".

EvilGN,
I'd like to have a job before I leave behind my well-paying AF gig. Considering how long it is taking for some fractionals to hire, I want to be able to apply as soon as possible.
