Hey man, sorry I didn't answer tour message. I've had 48h to pack my life, do magic on my storage and get ready.
I meet with my new boss on friday so I've no idea yet. I guess somewhere in San Juan haha. You go there on vacation? Sent from my Nexus 6 using Tapatalk I'm heading over to San Juan for the weekend from Aguadilla (west side of the island). We will be spending a couple of nights there while checking out some sights. I figured if you were training in the San Juan area I could buy ya a welcome to the island beer. Aside from the international airport, there is the isla grande airport and I believe AF flies out of there as well and could potentially be a training location. |

This has been answered multiple times. At least 5 people in my class got hired with less than 300TT. |

Ok, well some people are saying that people are only getting hired with 500+ hours and they aren't receiving class dates yet, so there's some conflicting data.
To clarify, I had 700 hours at time of interview. Got an offer two weeks later, but it is now 2+ months later and I do not have a class date or an offer letter in the mail, just the email offer. Looks like most of us have accepted offers elsewhere. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

I just did a full week up in Bethel and loved it. I'm headed back up this Thursday to do my first full two week shift.
In my first week, I averaged 5 hours of flying per day, but that included two days of training/checkride and a few mornings of waiting for weather and/or mx. The days where I wasn't sitting around in training or waiting for weather/mx, I logged 6.5+ hours per day. As mentioned, we're doing a lot of 600-2 VFR flying. First day I was a bit skeptical (as any low time pilot should be) but it really is flat as sh!t up there so you're good if you keep the blue side up. For when we did file, I ended up logging around 12 hours of actual IMC and 10 approaches last week. This has been answered multiple times. At least 5 people in my class got hired with less than 300TT. Not a redbird. It's technically an FAA Level B FFS, but it doesn't really do a great job of mimicking the actual plane. That being said, it was great for learning the flows and getting used to the cockpit. Everything felt the same when I got in the actual plane for the first time. |
Received confirmation for July 17.

Good luck! :)
