Congrats! Welcome to the team. I’ll shoot you a PM after Indoc so you can know what to expect.

No chance in a year on flex I have gotten a 4 day rotation maybe 3 times. You set the max days in a row but the lowest is 8. Now they are excellent at working with you to get the days you need off but if you expect to come here working any less then 8 days in a row most of the time you’ll be disappointed.

Examples of my flex last 60 days
4 on, 2 off, 7 on, 3 off, 8 on 11 off (into next month). 6 on, 3 off, 8 on, 5 off, 5 on.

Other months I simply work a normal 8/6 at a grand override so it varies.

I read some good posts recently about the experience of getting hired and interviewing. Can anybody provide some insight on the training? Is it similar to airline training in terms of Indoc, systems, sims, etc? Is it AQP? How long is the foot print?

Thanks.

I’m on the Challenger so I can’t speak for the other equipment but the layout was as follows.. INDOC including travel days on each end was 11 days. Only had 4 days off between INDOC and Type Training (that can vary I’m told). Type Training was at CAE in Morristown, NJ. Not AQP and 17 days including travel days on each end. Systems first & sims second. It’s a doable course but fast so any preparation you can do prior helps a ton. I’ll say the instructors are great and they do their best to teach you what is important to pass the check ride. After type training I had 6 days off and began the 8/6 rotation. Can’t say enough great things about this place! Really have enjoyed it so far.

Aviator90,
I have the in-person interview in a couple of weeks, and was wondering how many flying hours you guys are getting per month on average? Ex. Challenger 350 SIC, 17 on/13 off, how many trips/hours during those 17 days?
Thanks in advance.

Default Xo application/auto response.

When you apply do you get an automated response confirming they received your application ? Beginning to wonder if it went through

I applied two months ago no response at all, 6500tt 6000 PIC 4 types 90 percent on demand 135 experience.

Anyone share their experiences, thanks

Great info! Thanks for the response. I’ve read over the 135 regs...how’s that SIC ride? Given the amount of days you mentioned, it must be pretty quick in the sims.
