Orange website has a posting for "Part 121 MD83 Captains & First Officers-Florida"

"Will fly" website also has the same posting and it says basing is in Punta Gorda.

Anybody have any info?

Is this an upstart?

 

I think it's Allegiant I remember seeing them overnight their IIRC.

 

Allegiants website does not indicate they are hiring. Also, I don't think Allegiant would be hiring captains would they?

 

Falcon Air Express?

 

Sounds like Allegiant, don't think they are hiring. I think this "other" website you are talking about is getting some (very) old gouge for job postings and listing it to bump their ratings, just my $.02

Thanks for the info F10. Their website confirms it.

 

Passing this along from another thread.

Hi Guys, Just wanted to give you some accurate information on Falcon Air Express. The first officer pay is $51/hr and the captain pay is $71/hr. The guarantee is 60 hours. This is a fixed pay scale so it doesn't matter how many years you work here, the pay remains the same. You have a guaranteed 8 days off per month plus whatever days you can get using the 1 in 7 rule. There are two bases....Miami and Mesa Arizona. The Mesa flying is hauling illegal aliens back to Central America. The Miami flying is passenger charter with some scheduled service coming up in early next year. Currently have 6 MD83s with two more coming in Feb 2012. There are some medical benefits if you live in Miami, but there are currently no medical benefits in Phoenix. The training is good, and the instructors are great. The employee group is hard working and easy to deal with. There is no training pay. The company pays for your hotel, but you must pay the company back through payroll deduction. There is no direct deposit, only checks

 

WOW! Sounds like the worst job ever!

Sorry to those who have to work there. :-/

 

No doubt...what a rat trap.
