Ok I just know now that Silver have a new CP and rumors are that after next Monday when next ground beggings they will stop hiring for the summer. So now what? Fly Banners? CFI? Buy a plane? Or play the lottery!

I also got invited but I have around 275TT... Not sure if it would be worth it considering plane tickets are about $400 for me to get there. :confused:

As far as a "signing bonus," dont know where you heard that from. I can see the signing contract going away, considering there is wording in the CBA that says that no pilot is to pay for the use of any training equipment. I think it's one of the things the union is working on... |
2500TT and ATP written done...invited to the job fair, I hope the only reason would be for a Captain gig...it's a tough pill to swallow flying a Saab around in the left seat for 36 an hour when I'm making 42 as an FO
