Default I guess...

I’ll definately do research, and find out for myself. I was just wondering about the company. Everyone has different experiences. I can fit in anywhere.

I only spent 17 years there so I guess I don’t really know much about the company. Ricci is a scumbag. Culture sucks. Do yourself a favor and look elsewhere.

It is probably the most spot on review out there. Very good at describing most fractional flying taylored for Flex/OPTIONS

It all depends on what you want and where you are in your career.

If you have just 2 or 3 years until retirement and want to just swing gears with little responsibilities then take a closer look.

If you are young and have your whole career a head of you. Don’t waste your time. Go to a regional and get your 121 time upgrade in 2 years then get a senority number at a major.

Hi River. We'd be happy to answer any questions you have about Flexjet. I can also put you in touch with actual people if you'd like. Absolutely take in info from anywhere you can. I would recommend you also take the time to talk directly to our pilots out on the line. They will tell you the good and the bad and shoot straight with you.

We will create a forum to answer any hiring questions you may have. I've worked here 22 years now and have had a different experience and would be happy to share.

Hi Champeen. Thank you for pointing this out. We are in the process of a pilot website redesign and I have asked that the Red Label reference be removed. It was put up there because an effort was being made by some folks to direct our pilots from applying for Red Label and the worry being we may have to recruit off the street. I am happy to tell you that the Red Label is being filled by our current pilots. Therefore, there will be no hiring at this time into Red Label or "heavy iron" off the street. Current hires are going into the Phenom 300 and the LR75 with some opportunities in the Challenger 300/350 and Legacy 450/500.

I hope this helps.

If you have been here for 22 years, that puts you within the top 7. You already got your payoff(bribe). If you want to talk to a real line pilot, talk to one that is wearing the horseheads on their badge.
