Bare in mind if you apply and get onboard right now, you ARE going to be flying boxes in a -500 in Texas at night.

FLL and TPA don’t have any vacancies.

Who do you guys have ZED agreements with? Asking for a friend.

I haven’t seen anything regarding the Texas cargo flying

Few questions:
1. MCO is NOT a base anymore, correct?
2. Upgrade times?
3. Current fleet/growth (they advertise quick upgrade...)
4. Where and how long is the training?

Thanks10.1.1

MCO isn’t a base anymore and likely won’t come back.

Wish I could answer you on upgrade times.

Company specific training is either at FLL or the company HQ near there. They’re talking several different locations for ATR including Miami and Houston(?).

Basing and trip lengths
 
I did a phone screening over the last few days, I am curious what the process for base selection and bidding is. I hear that there is some flying going on out of DFW now, let’s say if I can’t hold a FL base and get sent there first, would the trips they fly there be commutable?

What are the junior bases?

What is the bidding system Silver uses?

What kind of flying / where are they flying out of DFW?

btw, on the phone screening the HR person told me the new FO first year pay was $42.86/hr. An improvement over what the pay rates show on their airline profile. Anyone have more info on the new pay scales? Was there a new contract signed recently?

Any info appreciated!
