I still have 6 months on my contract at a 135, expecting about 1800TT with 800 multi turbine (all CE525 SIC) once May rolls around. Just curious if they’re eyeing those with more TT or in larger cabin aircraft. Thanks to all of you for sharing your experiences, it’s great to see everyone’s encouragement here.

It’s best to apply now and see what happens my friend. All they can say at this point in your career is “NO Thank You. Please reapply in ......”
On the other hand, they might surprise you.
Bottom Line? APPLY !!!!!

Totally agree with others above. While most have time well above mins, one of the guys I’m starting Indoc with next week was hired as a CFI with about 2000 TT. My first impressions were that he would be a great guy to fly with, and make a great member of the XO team.
When you meet the mins...APPLY!

Anybody that's currently there have any updates on how they're enjoying it (or not)?

Thanks for the great replies everyone! Glad to have your advice and to see that I’m not terribly far out of reach from them once I’m ready to apply. I know they want the ATP written done, but does it have to be for the unrestricted once you get the PIC type? I only ask since I just turned 22 and won’t be eligible for the unrestricted ATP until next December. Thanks in advance!

XOJet or a King Air 350i PIC position with gama?? I have the CJO with gama already and am interviewing with XOJET. No doubt thankful for any opportunity, but I want to make an educated decision, which is tough when I don't know anyone flying at XOJET. TIA!
