3 buddies of mine recently interviewed, and all of them got their reimbursement checks within 3-4 weeks. It sounds like a hand full of you guys got looked over, for whatever reason. I would suggest picking up the phone instead of emails.

So, does anyone have a chance if they've interviewed and was passed on?

I interviewed 5 weeks ago and I am still waiting for a reimbursement.

We have a beautiful Citation X based at DAL that is available for charter. PM me if you are interested and I will put you in touch directly with that aircraft(s) charter director. His office is at FTW.

I shall stand corrected. There are some airplanes on the EFS managed side that do charter.
I didn't realize this much was going on.
My apologies for the bad info.
Contact MigBoy for more info on this

Gotcha. I believe I saw this on Charter Hub perhaps? I'm certainly going to run the aircraft past the clients here. They've become somewhat accustomed to the CJ1/Citation 500 series aircraft prices so this may a. scare them from a price stand point OR.... b. make them salivate for an upgrade.

I will certainly check in with them and see where they stand. Thank you for the great info!

To anyone looking to apply to EAS:

A quick note from an outsider.....

I was sitting in KMWC for the day a few weeks ago when an EAS Phenom came in. Needless to say to anyone that has been to this airport; I had plenty of time to chat the pilot up (sorry I forgot his name).

He was based out of BUF, and seemed to really like the job. We spoke about the schedule, QOL, benefits, hotels etc, and he really didn't have anything bad to say. He didn't exactly say life was perfect, but that it was getting better. It seemed the current schedule could get a bit rough at times but that wasn't the norm. Excitement was obvious when speaking of the new schedule for the guys with 18+ months.

He said pay was fair and who doesn't want to make more.

Overall I got a picture that like anywhere one will, there are days that SUCK, but over-all he enjoyed the people and company fine. He did say that some of the other bases have busier schedules, but that he didn't know of many that were hating working there.

Hope that helps some of you guys on the fence about applying because of some of the posts here. I know that if they had a base open close to me KCVG/KDAY I wouldn't hesitate submit an application.

A good friend of mine always told me, "It's called WORK, who wakes up in the morning and says I can't wait to **FUN** today." Everyone has bad days work, regardless of the field, and even if you love your job it's still WORK and not FUN.

If you are a newly hired SIC with ATP minimums, will EAS's training contractor type-rate you and certify you for your ATP? If I get hired at 1200 TT, will EAS do my ATP ride as well once I reach ATP mins?

RI830

Yes and yes for the ATP, as it is simply some paperwork for CAE to do.....as an SIC, you will only receive an SIC type.
Full unrestricted Single Pilot Type comes when you upgrade.

And yes....you can log total time and SIC time when onboard. Contrary to others beliefs.

Any word on new openings for SIC's in either the DFW or TUL area? Is there any possibility of EAS opening a HOU base?

I just updated my app and have a concern. I remember when filling out the original app it asked if I had my ATP written completed. At the time I didn't have it done and now I do. When I just updated my app there was no question that asked about the ATP written. Would it be wise for me to submit a new app, or is there some other way to make sure EAS knows my ATP written is complete?
